Oh do fuck off, he was a monster that left millions broke and desperate and dying in pain.

Yes, "The American Dream" aka, fucking over your fellow common man for a buck.

world's most important companies

That's hilariously American defaultism considering most of the world doesn't need companies like UHC

When one of the first things you mention about him is "$280B of revenue" as though that's a good thing in the context of health insurance, yeah, fuck you.

I read a comment the other day that's stuck with me, I can't remember the precise wording but it was something like:

"Every cent spent on this man's funeral was made on the back of someone else's"

Mussolini interned at a bakery one summer and attempted to learn the harmonica, you judgemental monsters...

They forgot to mention that his wife and he separated in 2018, keeping it secret for years. It was revealed after his death.

Not that I think there's anything bad about being separated/divorced, but it'd be a lie to paint him as a family man.

I guess his criminal record for drunk driving also doesn't fit the narrative.

I didn't have any sympathy for him until I found out he played basketball and the trombone.

This changes everything.

When it's your job to profit off of human misery, don't be surprised when you find out what human misery feels like.

Oh! Oh! Do Hitler next! Talk about how he served his country in war, how he was a painter and a successful politician and then leave out the "other details" about him.

The ruling class media have been in marching order to propagandize the virtue of their masters

Gang you are missing the point. Thompson worked really hard from humble beginnings to become the absolute best at being a horrible human being. That’s gotta count for something, right? /s

Written by CFO

I love how "overseeing $280B of revenue" is supposed to be some indicator of the guy's goodness. "Wealth = virtue" indeed.

By the same logic, let me introduce you to the story of a young man rising from a failed Austrian artist to a national hero…

tl;dr: The beginnings justify the ends. If you're a teenager thinking about becoming a murderer or rapist later in life, consider learning the trombone.

He then became a fucking murderer for profit.

Anyone who comes from humble beginnings should understand the struggle of the common man, and have empathy.

If you come from humble beginnings and then work your way up into a position of tremendous power, and then think "I've made my fortune now, so fuck the poors" then that's EVEN WORSE, not better!

Oh shit, he was elected Homecoming King?? Well that changes everything.

Got rich trampling over as many people as possible then died by gun violence. A true blue american boy

Fuck him even more then. Since he comes from humble beginnings he should know what it's like not being rich, but he just decided to be a greedy asshole.

IMO, a “decent man” would have turned down working in a company that made health into a profit-making machine. He would have at least resigned when AI was pushed forward to deny even more medical claims, but instead gave his blessing. One can be evil and deadly without having to pull a trigger, look at the ton of politicians that do it daily and they get away with it because they look polished.

So ambitious small town guy with no empathy or ethics moved up the chain until he profited off the pain and suffering of others. I'm sure many of these trash humans trying to praise him have never had to worry about how they were going to stay alive. You notice they are all just like him. Trash.

Wasn't there a reddit post about this guy and how he was like a womanizer or something and he and his wife have been separated for years, basically saying this guy wasn't the pillar of humanity the media was making him out to be? If there was a post, was any of that true?

What do you expect from a CFO of mergers and acquisitions? They’re more inhuman than healthcare execs, if that’s possible, since their entire job is to buy companies and fire people, thus leaving them completely without insurance.

Decent men don’t leverage suffering for profit.

It's a bizarre thing to detail the man's entire life EXCEPT the part that was evil as if it somehow is irrelevant.

Ah yes, the American dream. Making billions by siphoning the blood-money from the dying you denies Healthcare to.

Hitler loved animals.

Your point?

The worst people in the world are still people. Doesn't mean we have to excuse their evil.

Yeah, this rural kid from Iowa grew up to be an evil parasite on society. This isn't the flex you think it is.

So it takes 1 generation to become a class traitor.

You could make a similar feel good post about basically any evil person in history. It's pretty easy when you ignore the evil things they do

Brian Thompson WAS living the American Dream! He got to kill THOUSANDS of Men Women and Children EVERY DAY and get paid MILLIONS for doing it!

He represented everything right and good in America?

Death to America then.

One of the big lies that the elites tell themselves is that anyone and everyone of merit with be lifted to their rightful station in society. They need this illusion because otherwise, they'll have to face the fact that their success is just based on birth circumstances. They latched on the the few working class slobs that somehow navigate up the rungs of society.

But what exactly did Brian Thompson achieve with his success? Did he funnel his excess wealth back to the community he came from? No, he just accumulated wealth like all the rest.

Also, pretty sure he was cheating on his wife and doing insider trading, which checks out with the elites.

I have good memories of Brian Thompson. grabs a pipe for a good solemn smoke

Why I remember when he was there on a cross next to Jesus himself, comforting the poor messiah. He actually got into the business hoping that less people would die of crucifixion related injures. It's why he declined so many people, the money had to be there so that if they crucified Christ again his old friend would recover this time.

No I'm just fucking with you. Brian was a mass murderer and his passing is not mourned, not even by the billionaires. They don't give a shit about Thompson, they're just worried they could be next.

Also is that really his picture? I'm not one to judge people for their appearances, but I'm not sure they could find a douchier looking picture of him if they tried.

Sounds like some nerd who just lived a normal life. He's no saint for this.

Trombone, you say?

It was reported that he didn't even live with his wife. If that's true, why are we talking about his failed family?

It makes the things UHC did to low income customers even worse, in my opinion. He knew what they were going through and still hurt them.

Robert Sterling CFO | M&A and Strategy Advisor

Mergers and Acquisitions… Another soulless capitalist whose only purpose is to:

1. Perform leveraged hostile buyouts of solid companies with ‘struggling stock value’, gut them head to toe for any value, and leave the husk behind, or
2. Join two corporations together whilst sneaking as much monopolistic structure past anti-trust regulations they can get away with

No he was a psychopath like pretty much all CEOs

Fuck, the American dream sounds disgusting.

Oh man.... I really want downvote this but like your point is right but like oh God fucking damn do we really need a post pointing out that the CEO asshole had a hobby? No duh.

He also had a job sentencing poor sick people to death.
We all know plenty about him from the boot being pushed into our throats from people like him and his friends who are all friends and think we'll of each other but...

Man the level of disconnect from these people. Completely can't understand the language of the oppressed and why we don't see their grand vision we are not a part of.

Perhaps this is all true and he was a relatively decent guy, but we will never know that for sure. What we do know for certain is that he was one many horrible cunts responsible for the harm and despair of far too many innocent people just trying to live normal, healthy lives. The nation is getting fucking tired of this bullshit and as a result the only part of this rich assholes legacy that really matters anymore is the one where he is a shitty proxy for all our anger and frustrations.

I hope the media will speak about luigi mangiones parents and his love interest once he is punished by the law.

This country is just a fascist corporatist shithole nightmare.

One of the most important companies in the world, yeah right

So let me make sure I have this straight: Grew up in stereotypical small town Americana, undoubtedly observed the people around him struggling, had an opportunity to get lucky, learned nothing from his upbringing, and elected to deliberately contribute to making everyone else's problems worse now that he was no longer "little people."

We don't have a cannon anywhere on the planet capable of firing people like this far enough into space.

Seems like drawing this kind of attention to yourself when the masses are looking for the next person to bring to the guillotine is a weird choice.

And Bin Laden made 20 children with 5 wives that were all loved.

Nice of you to out yourself Robert Sterling, CFO.

Chickens will roost. He should know that having come from Iowa.

D³

Take a diarrhea shit on his grave

You know there's not even a whole letter's difference between CFO and CEO.

Just sayin'

The only thing him and Luigi have in common is being traitors to their class.

inb4 by "his dad worked at a grain silo" he owned every grain silo in AmeriKKKa or something

Now do one about luigi

He was immaculately concepted to a slave from a traditional farming planet whose athletic ability made him a star in the pod raising circuit. Despite such humble origins he was able to rise to become not only one of the few members of the venerable jedi order but distinguished himself with his valor in the clone wars. He even earned a seat on the jedi council. This man - not the person who dismembered him in cold blood - was everything that was right and good about the galaxy.......

This country is broken. The powers at be ask us to view wealth as righteousness. Regular humans are expendable. We must protect those that have the most by grinding up those with the least.

And they're trying to export this sentiment to the rest of the world.

I'd say dark times are ahead but that statement ignores all this darkness we find ourselves writhing in.

Robert Sterling is a fucking twat.

LOL

LMAO, even

I virtually have the same background as this dipshit except that I didn't become a fucking awful ghoul. I'm not impressed.

How’s that 2 inch buried cock taste like robert? Since you love gobbling dead bilionaire cock so much.

I'm not convinced we're much different except by circumstance. Anyone trying to manage that many human interactions is only going to see numbers. I know we'd like to think we have been or would be filtered out, but I'm not convinced.

The problem is corporate structures that create these behemoths that essentially can't have ethical liability. Someone else will do his job now. Killing him benefits exactly nobody. Just more distraction from what we should be focusing on.

You spin me right round baby right round.

Sterling can F himself, Thompson was a murderer.

I suggest checking out this dudes twitter posts. He is truly the worst of us - on par with the binned CEO. Fuck you Robert Sterling.

Um, they kinda left one pretty important thing out of that tweet.

Fuckin puke material!

“One of the world’s most important companies…”???

Robert Sterling eh? makes note

Anyone else think that dead chump looks a lot like Theodore Chipmunk?

I know that not at leftists are vegan (though they should be) but I don’t think saying he worked in meat processing is a good example to give to convince us of his supposed moral character

Man makes money off others suffering. He's a saint.

and overseeing $280 billion of renevue

That's the important point of the post.

Is there even a point of talking about a corpse? Ya'll are wasting a lot of energy.
