United Healthcare CEO gets whacked, and the shills are talking about "Violence didn't solve anything! They're just going to hire another CEO."

BITCH, SHAREHOLDERS VOTE FOR THOSE - the C level board finds a bunch of candidates to promote and then

Sends a little notice to your fidelity account saying some bs like: "EMERGENCY VOTE! PICK OUR NEW CEO BY TUESDAY!!"

And then you go onto Fidelity or Vanguard or wherever and your stocks you own get counted as one vote for each share.

Here's the kicker. UHC might be having a firesale.

They're getting a lot of bad publicity right now.

Nobody liked the CEO nor the Ai they're being forced by the board to invest in.

So they're selling their shares.

So you can buy one.

For cheap.

And follow up on the funniest shit alive and break their shit.

You can buy .01 shares for the price of a coffee!

Gamestop those bitches!

Footage of United Health CEO Brian Thompson being assassinated has been released. Clearly a hit job.

Shooter is a pro using a suppressed weapon.

Brian Thompson was set to testify before Congress over United healthcare's hacks as well as their business practices.

I don't know if anyone else knows about the assassination of Brian Thompson, if NOT there's more to this story.

Piglosi did some heavy investing in stocks involving hundreds of thousands of dollars.

These are the people that steal elections for their love of money. 🤔

Some things to do if you live in the United States as a queer person or a woman:

Learn self defense. You don't know whether someone will harm you. The idea that someone might is not far-fetched.

Stock up on contraceptives. Shelf life of plan B is four years. See this list for information about condom shelf life. These may become banned.

Buy queer books. As many as you can afford, starting with trans books. These may be banned soon.

Stock up on HRT medication if possible. This will likely be quickly banned when Trump becomes president. HRT meds have a shelf life of 1-3 years depending on the kind; check on the container! Read about DIY HRT here.

Read about what Trump and his followers are planning to do about abortion and other reproductive healthcare (i.e. contraception, etc.).

Read about what Trump and his followers plan to do about trans healthcare and rights for same-sex couples (I say same-sex instead of same-gender because they don't care about gender).

Teach your children (if you have any), siblings, friends, family, and especially other queer people and other women around you.

If you are too afraid to remain in danger, register for a passport as soon and look into countries you could move to. Look at what you'll have to do for jobs, living, a visa, citizenship, etc.

You may want to stock up on educational materials about prejudice, slavery, Native people, and other materials that may be censored.

As a reminder: This won't necessarily become a necessity. But based on the many things Trump and his supporters have said about the issue mentioned within this list, these actions will, unfortunately, probably be needed. Don't avoid taking these actions until it's too late. Do these before it's too late. Start now.

I'm already starting to see bullshit "the shooter didn't accomplish anything" takes so, to recap, as of December 10th in the morning, the immediate direct repercussions of the shooting were:

Destabilised United Healthcare stock, costing the remaining executives a bunch of cash

Sent every insurance executive in the US into hiding

Made insurance companies so scared they temporarily started approving EVERYTHING and cutting costs, which will eventually lead to who knows how many lives saved or extended

Turned Ben Shapiro's audience against him

Ridiculed the best funded police department in the world and made sure everyone knows how incompetent they actually are, which will have democratic consequences

Inspired a wall of solidarity where everyone but one person is refusing to speak out or condemn him

Kickstarted class consolidation and finally broke the unsurmountable divide between the American left and right wing voting blocks

Made sure everyone could see the enormous difference a single person can make when they're willing to go all the way

Just for kicks, happened to do this right around the same time as the Syrian revolution, one of the shortest in history, demonstrating dictators can be toppled by the people working together

Gave an entirely new meaning to the phrase "United Healthcare".

So yeah, it kinda did some things.

🇮🇱⚔️🇵🇸 🚀🏘️💥🚑 🚨

230 DAYS OF GENOCIDE IN GAZA: RAFAH AND KARM ABU SALEM BORDER CROSSINGS REMAIN CLOSED, ONE HOSPITAL RAIDED BY IOF, SECOND HOSPITAL CLOSES, MASS MURDER CAMPAIGN CONTINUES AS OVER 115'000 CASUALTIES ARE RECORDED

On 230th day of the Israeli occupation's ongoing special genocide operation in the Gaza Strip, the Israeli occupation forces (IOF) committed a total of 9 new massacres of Palestinian families, resulting in the deaths of no less than 91 Palestinian civilians, mostly women and children, while another 21 others were wounded over the previous 24-hours.

It should be noted that as a result of the constant Israeli bombardment of Gaza's healthcare system, infrastructure, residential and commercial buildings, local paramedic and civil defense crews are unable to recover countless hundreds, even thousands of victims who remain trapped under the rubble, or who's bodies remain strewn across the streets of Gaza.

For the 17th consecutive day, the Israeli occupation forces closed the Rafah and Karm Abu Salem border crossings, south of the city of Rafah, in the southern Gaza Strip, blocking thousands of humanitarian aid trucks from entering Gaza, and preventing hundreds of critically wounded and severely sick Palestinians from leaving the enclave for treatment abroad.

Commenting on the closure, the United Nations World Food Programme (WFP) warned on Wednesday that "thousands of families still in Rafah need aid."

"WFP distributed food until it ran out. With little aid coming in from southern crossings and our warehouses still inaccessible, remaining food stocks have only supported 50'000 hot meals a day," the WFP said in a post to the social media platform X.

"We need safe and sustained access," the WFP added.

Due to the continued closure of Gaza's largest border crossings, not only are food, medicine and medical supplies in short supply, but also fuel for generators.

As a result of the fuel shortage, Al-Aqsa Martyrs Hospital in Deir al-Balah, in the central Gaza Strip, said it would cease providing healthcare services "within two hours" due to running out of fuel.

Appeals were made by the hospital calling for more fuel to continue its operations, but to no avail.

Al-Aqsa Martyrs Hospital is one of the last remaining hospitals still functioning in the Gaza Strip, serving an inordinately large percentage of the Palestinian population in central Gaza, as the Israeli occupation's ongoing bombing and shelling, along with the raid of several hospitals and the closure of Gaza's border crossings, have put the vast majority of the enclave's hospitals and healthcare centers out of service.

Previously, the Israeli occupation army destroyed a multitude of healthcare facilities in Gaza, demolishing and bombing several medical centers, including the Al-Shifa medical complex in Gaza City, one of the largest hospitals in Gaza at the start of the genocide.

The occupation army also destroyed several other hospitals, leaving piles of rubble in place of the medical institutions that once operated in Gaza.

Local medical sources say Al-Awda and Kamal Adwan Hospitals remain the last two hospitals in operation in the northern Gaza Strip, which are barely functioning at the time of publishing, following 8 months of raids, blockade, siege and bombardment.

However, in an example of the Israeli occupation's ongoing assault on what remains of Gaza's healthcare system, on Wednesday, the occupation army stormed Al-Awda Hospital in Jabalia.

According to reporting in the local media, occupation forces stormed Al-Awda Hospital, forcing medical personnel and patients to leave the hospital towards the west of Gaza City following the arrest of at least one member of the hospital's staff.

“There remain 14 employees in the hospital, accompanied by 11 injured people and companions. They refused to evacuate unless ambulances were present to evacuate the wounded," a local medical source told the Palestinian media.

Beginning on Sunday, May 19th, the Israeli occupation forces began a massive assault on the city of Jabalia and the Refugee Camp of the same name, demanding local residents evacuate their homes and shelters and forcing them towards Gaza City.

Al-Awda Hospital is considered to be the only hospital to provide orthopedic, gynecological, and obstetrics services in the northern Gaza Strip, while also providing services for general surgery, emergency and trauma care, specialized clinics, radiology and also had a functioning lab.

At least 148 people were trapped in Al-Awda Hospital during the time of the siege, while their fates remain unknown since the time of the raid, though some medical staff were seen evacuating on foot.

Meanwhile, the Israeli occupation forces (IOF) continued massacreing entire families in the Gaza Strip, killing and wounding dozens of civilians, mostly children, over the last day, with massive bombing and shelling targeting residential areas of the Palestinian enclave.

In Gaza's north, in the latest occupation atrocity, Israeli reconnaissance aircraft bombed a gathering of civilians near a gas station in the Al-Zaytoun neighborhood, southeast of Gaza City, killing at least 10 civilians, including several children, and wounding more than 20 others.

Similarly, Zionist air forces bombed Palestinians as they evacuated a shelter for displaced civilians in the Jabalia Refugee Camp, in the northern Gaza Strip, martyring four citizens and wounding several others.

In yet another genocidal mass murder event, Israeli occupation forces bombed a residential home in the Al-Daraj neighborhood in central Gaza City, leading to the deaths of 16 civilians, including at least 10 children, while a number of others were wounded in the attack.

Another 10 civilians were killed, and many others wounded, mostly children, after IOF fighter jets bombed a Quran studies school inside the Fatima Al-Zahraa Mosque, in the Al-Daraj neighborhood of central Gaza City.

In yet another airstrike, occupation forces bombed the Shabat family home on Al-Ma'amel Street, also in the Al-Daraj neighborhood of Gaza City, resulting in the deaths of 5 Palestinian civilians, while a further bombing targeted a residential apartment in the Tal al-Hawa neighborhood, south of Gaza City, killing one civilian and wounding several others.

The Israeli occupation army also pummeled the city of Jabalia, targeting several neighborhoods, including air assaults on Blocks 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5, along with Riad Al-Saliheen Square, also the Al-Qasaib neighborhood up to the Aisha Mosque, Ezbet Mallin, Al-Ajarma Street, Tal al-Zaatar, and the northern neighborhoods up to the Sheikh Zayed Towers, the Ezbet Abd Rabbo and Hay Al-Salem neighborhoods.

Bombings further targeted a gathering of civilians in front of the Abu Hussein School, leading to the deaths of four Palestinians, while five more civilians were killed when the IOF bombed a house belonging to the Alloun family in the Al-Jarn area of the Jabalia Camp.

The occupation army also burned down entire residential squares in the area of the Jabalia Camp's police station, along with neighborhoods in the eastern and northern areas of the Camp.

The mass bombing in Jabalia didn't end there, occupation forces also destroyed a five-story residential building belonging to the Al-Ajrami family, in the Al-Faluga neighborhood of the Jabalia Camp, while in nearby Beit Hanoun, occupation forces advanced towards the entrance of the town while laying siege to local schools operating as shelters for displaced Palestinian families.

The slaughter continued in central Gaza when IOF warplanes bombed a residential home behind the Al-Orouba School, north of the Nuseirat Refugee Camp, murdering 7 civilians and wounding a number of others.

Following that, the Israeli occupation army bombed a residential house belonging to the Shihab family in the Nuseirat Camp, resulting in the deaths of 8 Palestinians, the majority of which being children and women, while several others were wounded in the assault. The number of deaths is expected to rise due to the critical nature of the injuries sustained by the wounded.

Yet another bombing by the Zionist occupation army targeted a house belonging to the Al-Shami family, in neighborhoods west of the Nuseirat Camp, resulting in the martyredom of 8 civilians and injuring many others.

Yet another occupation airstrike targeted a house belonging to the Al-Shaer family near Lafat Badr, northwest of the city of Rafah, in the southern Gaza Strip, resulting in the death of a civilian.

Occupation Merkava tanks also entered Block 0 south of Rafah along the Egyptian border, west of the Salah al-Din Gate, razing the entire area and advancing further west, while Zionist artillery shelling targeted the Al-Awda roundabout.

As a result of the Israeli occupation's ongoing special genocide operation in the Gaza Strip, the current death toll now exceeds 35'800 Palestinians killed, including over 15'000 children and 10'000 women, while another 80'011 others were wounded since the start of the current round of Zionist aggression, beginning with the events of October 7th, 2023.

Listen I am really happy that the United Healthcare CEO got shot, but yall are saying some CONCERNING shit about his suspected killer. First of all, you are innocent until proven guilty, so stop calling Luigi Mangione the assassin when he literally hasnt even had his trial yet. Secondly, yall treating him like a saint, a martyr, and the Second Coming of Christ (literally wtf, I've seen the art yall make) is fucking creepy. Seeing people compare him to art of the arrest of Jesus and making votive candles of him dressed as a saint? Fucking weird. That is not a normal thing to do no matter how much I hate UHC (I'm a disabled American who has had them deny my treatments repeatedly). Yall need to put some ice on your murder boners. I was pretty excited about this at first too, but yall have taken this to a crazy extreme. You've made a fandom. You've made a fandom that is bordering uncomfortably close to a cult. I think yall need a few deep breaths, a glass of water, and a fuckin wake up call. This did not hurt UHC in any measurable way. They replaced the CEO immediately as if they were cycling the laundry and the money machine kept churning. Hell, their stock actually increased in value immediately following the assassination.

My treatments still arent fully covered and my insurance keeps shifting me onto less effective medication because they dont want to pay for me to actually get well. Nothing has changed. This was a deeply satisfying moment of national catharsis, but the moment has passed and yall are making it weird.

[com-bro]

Just a reminder that the United Healthcare stock didn't crash and therefore the CEO's large paycheck was feudalistic theft.

[exeggcute]

last year when united healthcare (the insurance company who owns optumRx, one of the big PBMs) was giving me the runaround about my crohn's meds, I was tearing my fucking hair out that they wouldn't cover cheap (well, cheap-er), widely available generic mesalamine and would ONLY cover the brand name equivalent that no pharmacist on earth ever has in stock, because why would they, and on top of being frustrating it was just downright bizarre that they were adamant about only paying for the more expensive version of the same drug. the whole thing only made sense in hindsight after I learned that one of the other functions of a PBM is to broker contracts with name-band drug manufacturers, essentially by saying "hey, we know you're probably struggling to compete against the competitive pricing of generic <drug>, so if you sign a deal with us, we promise to use you as the sole supplier of <drug> for our patients in exchange for discounts and/or kickbacks." and that's why UHC was like nooooo you HAVE to use name-brand lialda, we made a special deal with them and if we let you fill a prescription for generic mesalamine the lialda people will stop paying us lots of money :(

[hollow-keys]

On Wednesday, the day of the shooting, United Healthcare’s stock opened at $610.79. Exactly one week later, it’s $537.82 – a nearly 13 percent decline. Cigna and CVS Health Corp, some of the nation’s largest private health insurers, experienced a 12 percent and 11 percent decline, respectively. Centene was hit with a 5 percent drop, while Humana had a 3 percent decline.

-The Independent

“The anti-insurer sentiment expressed by the public after this event suggests that UnitedHealth and perhaps the industry may need to adjust how they handle coverage decisions,” Utterback added. “Otherwise, they may face the wrath of the public, which will hopefully come in a more civilized form—such as increased regulation—than what happened this week.”

Luigi Mangione was the hero we needed when our country was most divided.

It’s not secret our country is in complete shambles from whatever point of view you look at it. No matter what side you’re on, you have to admit the United States of America have fallen from the glory super power it was in the 60s. However, it’s strangely the death of a ceo that causes people from all spectrums of life to come together to rejoice.

That’s how terrible the medical system is here in America.

We are rejoicing, writing sexual fanfic, making edits, and lookalike contest for a man who killed another person out of the blue.

This is not me defending the CEO, don’t misjudge my words, I think many ceos of healthcare companies shouldn’t be surprised that people’s resentment towards the medical healthcare system is to this level. They have watched as Americans cried and pleaded for their claims to be accepted so they and their love ones can get the medical attention they need.

And they laugh before denying it.

Deny.

Defend.

Depose.

The ceos running these selfish capitalistic schemes shouldn’t be surprised that we do not view them as one of our own. They betrayed everything our founding fathers believed and died for the second they made critical treatment that doesn’t cost them a penny worth more than a fucking house.

How dare you act surprised a man is dead when millions have died because you refuse to allow them the healthcare they need. The people will cry out, the people will fight out, and they will not be held back.

We are in an age where people will do whatever it takes to secure their liberties as Americans. After all, we’re the same generation that had far right people storm in the capital because they couldn’t handle someone other than Trump won.

It’s not that we , the people, are “scary.” It’s just so hard to live in a country pushing an idea that other nations have already established.

God damn it I just want my anxiety pills to not cost me a pretty penny.

Anyways the country is a joke and I’m happy United healthcare stocks are in a down low right now though I know they’ll begin to rise given time.

I know it's probably not even close to accurate, but I can't stop myself from thinking from time to time that we could have all been living in a fully automated gay space luxury communism solarpunk utopia if neoliberals hadn't fought to hide the impact of fossil fuels on the climate and run fearmongering propaganda against marginalized communities to keep us bickering and to keep the prevailing wage lower than the cost of inner city parking spaces, all for the glorious accomplishment of having trillionaires in our lifetime.

Like we're just now seeing automated fast food joints and humanoid robots doing menial labor and self-driving vehicles (which will still be less efficient than communal kitchens, distribution sites developed outside of the form factor requirements of human labor, and well-developed public transit that's hamstrung at every turn by Big Auto but works in literally every other developed country just fine today) because the projected costs of implementation for all that are finally dropping below the paltry $7.25 an hour paid out to like half the country, because service jobs are the one thing that couldn't be outsourced to jack up the stock price, and there's a voice in the back of my head that says "we could have had all this and then some decades ago if the point of cutting human labor out wasn't to drive costs down, but to provide as many people as possible with a comfortable life."

It honest-to-god sickens me that we reached this point off the lifeblood of people around the world who, staring down the barrel of a global hegemon, had no other choice but to work themselves to death for shit-fifty an hour - that we crossed this cost-benefit analysis line not by the rising of wages to sustain a living, but by the fall of development costs in the wake of hypercapitalist productivity, to the point that big business can safely and comfortably yank the rug out from people scraping by on poverty wages without excessive setbacks to profits. And of course, unlike the optimistic predictions of the retrofuturistic PSAs of the 50's, it's not like anybody but the ultrawealthy who already own everything will benefit from zeroing their labor costs. And with no money left to buy the useless plastic shit that's cooking the globe on its way from factories to warehouses to landfills, everyone else gets hung out to dry as the world burns. Out-fucking-standing.

I hate to feel angry and defeated, so I'd like to channel it into something positive. I'm throwing some union links out here. Get in contact and learn how to unite your coworkers who are upset about the cost of living - you stand a far better chance of uniting them under that umbrella than anything else, and it'll be a lot more effective than just choosing the lesser of two evils every four years.
