If private insurance companies don’t succeed in their mission to kill, private equity companies taking over hospitals will. Paging Doctor Mangione, Doctor Mangione you’re needed stat.

Let's bring together two awful tragedies and compare them shall we?

She took two master’s degrees off her CV to get hired for a university job she was overqualified for, accepting a hefty career downgrade as well as a substantial pay cut she never made up again. “I know a lot of people who have wrecked their careers in this way – just to get health insurance,” she said.

Tomorrow, on the anniversary of January 6th, let us celebrate Luigi Mangione. He gave us a day of love that we've needed for a long time. Thank you, Luigi. You have awoken the realization of a long-simmering social problem and that realization is the first step to solving it.

"What makes this a cultural event isn’t that somebody killed a CEO, but that millions of people refused to respond the way they were supposed to respond."

"What happens when the news is no longer a thing that flows from an authority figure’s televised lips the way clean water flows from a faucet, but instead a kind of game you participate in?"

Although I haven't seen this on Post Alley in Pike Market, it may only be a matter of time before @MayorOfSeattle Bruce Harrell declares it's not art, despite its appearance and review in @hyperallergic

Was watching an old clip from just before the 2018 midterms, when #ChrisCuomo was on CNN, but I didn't expect it to give me new insight into the #LuigiMangione case. It's about #immigration and #immigrants, who as we know were being abused by Trump. When Cuomo mentions that the employers who hire illegal immigrants should be punished instead of immigrants, the contrast with the #Luigi case hit me. Our #justice system is not blind at all. Social class wins every time.

Americans are celebrating Nintendo character, Luigi, as something of an accidental mascot.

Today in #Austin, #Texas, a group of "Luigis" rallied against corporate healthcare in solidarity with Briana Boston with a banner reading "Deny, Defend, Depose: Greed Kills, passing out flyers and posing for photos with passersby.

Text from flyer handed out by "Luigis" in Austin, TX:

"On December 4th, UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson was gunned down. The bullet casings told the story: this was act of vengeance against UnitedHealthCare, who denies over 30% of health insurance claims—a company emblematic of a system that kills. Every year, over 50,000 Americans die from lack of insurance. 38% percent of us avoid necessary care because we’re scared of the cost. One in twelve is drowning in medical debt. Health insurance companies aren’t doctors. They don’t heal—they profit by restricting access to care. While we ration medications, delay appointments, and worry about bills, they rake in billions. We get sicker and they get richer. This violence isn’t on the evening news. It’s buried beneath their marketing, their endless paperwork, their fine print. But make no mistake: this is violence. And they’re laughing all the way to the bank. Blue Cross Blue Shield, Texas’s largest insurer, denies one in five claims while pocketing $18 billion in revenue. Whether Thompson’s death filled you with joy or horror, it ripped the mask off. The truth was laid bare: these companies are complicit in widespread suffering. Think about the last time you or someone you love worried about a medical bill. Put off care because of the cost. Cut pills in half to make them last. You’ve felt the violence they inflict. Now, the media and government scramble to spin the narrative, calling working-class mother Briana Boston a “terrorist” for uttering “Deny, Defend, Depose” when her claims were denied. We must remain clear headed: a small group gets rich off our illness. The solution is just as simple: abolish these corporations and nationalize health insurance. Single-payer healthcare works everywhere else in the developed world, where people live longer and healthier lives. Texans, by contrast, die three years younger, victims of private healthcare. The only question left is this: When will we stop waiting and take what is ours?"

The problem with this article is that the #media hasn't been very empathetic here. This isn't a case of "white man kills family" and the photo is him jet skiing.

The media has actually been trying pretty hard to shame everyone who is being empathetic to him.

The empathy is coming from social media.

or our total absence of any sympathy toward shithead billionaire CEOs of predatory "healthcare" insurance companies, who's to say. 🤔

#LuigiMangione obviously ain't even the orignal shooter y'all.

Let's just say I've examined the recording of the incident. Repeatedly. With popcorn and schadenfreude.

They can lock up as many patsies and crisis actors as they want. We all know the real shooter got away with it.

Oh, and there are plenty of copycats in the making out there sayin' "swiggity swooty" cuz they're comin' for that CEO booty.

Happy holidays 😘

Been talking to my Black and Brown friends about Luigi and there's a growing consensus that he's possibly the first white guy in a loooong time folks can understand and respect their crime.

When you got the black folks covering for you, saying you were at the house party and carrying on in the comments in support you know you struck a chord.

Hands down, most liked white guy in quite some time.

Social media post showing a black people hanging out a party and posing for a photo.  Luigi, the alleged CEO killer squats in front. The original posters text states: "It was really good catching up with you Luigi Mangione on Dec 4th 2024 at my party, between the hours of 6 a.m and 6 p.m in Towson Maryland."


The CEO was a human shield for all the insurance claim denials.

Yet another "this is objectively bad BUT" type posts, sorry.

I get the discussions about how people should have empathy (broadly) in regards to the #CEO murder.

But I'd argue they DO. It's actually competing empathy (like the wolves inside). We have decades of being fucked by health insurers - both direct and indirect experience - built up and weighed in the instantaneous reaction against the idea of being murdered in the street.

So it's complicated.
