It’s pretty wild how little empathy humanity has as a whole. The discourse on Lemmy around this murder has been a little disturbing. The man had children.
Edited to add, people trying to gotcha me by saying people who were denied healthcare also had children aren’t making the point they think they are. Empathy goes all ways. The comment I replied to said that you can not approve of his work while also not celebrating his death. That’s what I’m agreeing with. Imagine being a child and seeing the internet actively celebrating your father’s death. It’s fucked up.
If you sincerely think that my comment is expressing support for his company denying health coverage for other people with children, then we simply cannot have a rational conversation.
As did many of the thousands of people who died from being denied treatment in order to push his wage packet up another million dollars. Some of them were children themselves.
The man also built a company that refused to provide anti-vomit meds to children on chemo. “Think of the children,” they demanded, while thinking of literally no children but their own.
Quite frankly, executives of health insurance companies continually make money by denying medical coverage to people with children and letting them agonizingly die slowly.
I’m not on here celebrating his death for the sole reason that I think it’s just as likely this corporate espionage / assassination for money, but if it is a normal person shooting a health insurance executive for denying a loved ones’ coverage it’s hard to imagine how the executive didn’t deserve it.
You don’t get to be separated from the morality of your actions, just because you use neutral sounding business language to describe how you’re fucking over and killing people for personal profit.
This is the definition of keyhole compassion. You feel more for the monster who made millions off denying medical care to people, stealing their money, and laughing all the way to the bank rather than the people he deliberately let suffer and die.
Your take is disgusting. The executive class should be living in constant fear after all the crimes they have committed to the working class, poor, colonized, enslaved, and otherwise marginalized people.
Then maybe you should focus on the robber barons creating this crisis instead of concern trolling the people who have been locked out of institutional power and must use violence to get any kind of justice.

And I’m sure a lot of the people he denied health care to in the name of profit had children too.

No, I don’t feel more. I feel equally. None of it good. People dying is not good.
I don’t even think his company should exist to deny people health care in the first place.
