UHC CEO murdered

(Anonymous) 2024-12-05 12:52 am (UTC)(link)
Don't know if this is really politics. But I love how everyone is cheering for the guy to get away.

Did you see the video? That was a straight up hit. Hitman even shot him in the leg first to make sure if the bystander interfered that his target couldn’t escape while he dealt with the bystander.
He stopped at Starbucks just before and is on camera with half his face showing. He’s a lot younger than I expect, like maybe mid to late 20s. Cold as fucking ice in the shooting video though.

It's definitely a good start.

As soon as I saw the headline I thought,, there are going to be so many great memes from this. I was not disappointed.

Elon and Peter. The real VP and P, Trump is just their proxy because they were ineligible.

It was allowed yesterday, and health insurance is a hot topic in politics, so why not.

After some reflection, I probably feel a little bad for his family. I also think it should come as no surprise that he was targeted. And I hope other CEOs of corporations will take something away from this, but something tells me it won't be "we should stop screwing over people" until this kind of thing repeats itself enough.

The hit was because of insider trading. Even if he’d been targeted because he was the CEO of a predatory business model that kills thousands annually, it wouldn’t change anything in our favor. The bigwigs would just hire expensive paramilitary security and charge us more while also writing the cost off through any of the infinite loopholes the IRS provides just to corporations and the super rich.

I get the feeling they'll more likely invest in private secuirty and find special ways to get the media to have "won't somebody think of the wealthy?!" moral panic-style think pieces that creates harsh legislation against poor people and gives rich people/corporations more rights and strips regular citizens of rights we didn't even know could be taken away from us.

Did you see the kill?

I mean I dont support murdering people, but... I've played SASO that weren't as smooth.

Suppressed pistol, subsonic ammo, manually racking the slide with such mechanical and practiced ease and timing. Then he just disappeared into the night.

Apparently he left political messages carved on the brass.

Beautifully done. Dont approve of the act, but the execution deserves praise.

There isn't a single news or other outlet showing the actual shooting (yeah, i looked, sue me). Guess it's been scrubbed.

South Korea lifts president’s martial law decree after lawmakers reject military rule

I saw a vid of I think the leader of the Democratic Party, or at least a member, literally climbing the walls to go vote. Absolutely wild, what timeline are we even living in?

It was just a little taste test of a coup. The Billionaires found a willing political tool to test the waters, see where the weaknesses were, who the loudest voices are, and where they need to shore up their resources to weaken opposition. The real coup will happen in a few years and be much more effective. See also: Trump Presidency 2.0

South Koreans really pulled it out. They deserve all the kudos. They really went "nu-uh" to a coup. Love them for this.

I can only hope, if tRump and his ilk do something equally awful, we can pull together and do the same here.
