      Yay, let’s derail the conversation about the very real impact health services—when run for profit—have on hundreds of thousands of lives! When pushed to their breaking point some people lash out? Violence is a sign of a dysfunctional system?!?! That sounds made up, and murder is bad I can’t believe we’re condoning murder!!

        That’s what you call it when people don’t agree with your narrative? “Derailing the conversation?”

        I said yay murder. I think we need more of it from both political sides especially. I don’t want anyone to ever feel safe. I think the bigger should rule the weaker and the ones with guns the ones without. Also fuck elections. Let’s just shoot the candidates we don’t like untill we come across someone everyone is for and then lets shoot them too.

            You kidding me? Why would any sane person think murder is bad?

                Is it okay for hospital to murder one random healthy person if you can then take their organs and save 5 people?

                  I don’t think that’s a good comparison. The One healthy person existing isn’t making the other 5 people’s lives worse.

                  Whereas with private health insurance beholden to shareholders is a predatory system that enables systemic misery and death. UHG are particularly egregious in their denials.

                    I’m not saying it’s inconceivable that the murder of such a person could lead to positive change, but the murderer themselves should not be celebrated - they should be treated for what they are: a murderer. Encouraging vigilante justice will not create the kind of world people naively imagine. Not everyone agrees on who the “bad people” are.

                    This kind of violence will eventually be directed at our heroes too, and anyone celebrating people like Luigi will then have no moral ground to stand on from where to condemn that violence. It’s exactly what they asked for.
