UnitedHealth Group CEO Andrew Witty said in a leaked internal video that the insurance company plays an important role in guarding against "unnecessary" and "unsafe" care.
We can’t hope on another one, got crystalize some position. We need a healthcare reform and Luigi must be freed, frankly I am not convinced he even did. This is all very rushed with layers of psyop. It aint right.
There’s 335 million people in this country, and depending on estimates there are enough guns for every man, woman, and child to have more than one gun.
We’re may not yet be at the point where enough people have their backs against the wall to do something, but there is plenty of people and guns for it. And many of us will soon find ourselves with our backs against the wall when the effects of climate change start really fucking people over with job loss, home loss, crop failure, and mass migration.
There’s that, and the fact that this month just taught the would be school shooters that they’ll get lots of positive attention for redirecting their targets towards those deserving. They’ll get labeled a folk hero, they’ll have people trying to send them money for their legal defense fund, they’ll get their name in the history books. They’ll get everything they ever wanted out of their act of violence.
The material conditions have not changed, and they’re likely to change for the worse. That’s bad news for any business exec who wants to keep their head on their shoulders.
Look at Syria. Not today, Syria before the revolution.
People were living through grinding poverty, political repression with performative elections of a nepo-dictator, avoiding a police state with literal death squads, and just trying to get by and support their families.
Until Mohamed set himself on fire, and thus the Arab world.
Americans as a whole are too comfortable (or at least, enough of them are) and propagandized into believing that this is the way it has to be, for a big societal movement to coalesce around “fuck that shit”. We’re still infighting between political camps, or distracted dealing with reactionaries.
Expect a lot more of the “nothing to lose” shooters before another Che Guevara. Maybe we’ll come close again and claw some back, or we’ll have the United Fruit Company again.
These people have learned absolutely nothing from any of this. Don’t expect any change from them short of government intervention.
It’s gonna take more than one ceo for them to learn.

too many can only see the results of tearing down a system without another to step in.
honestly this is one of the things that frightens me, accelerationists don’t give two fucks what comes after, they just want to tear it all down.
Government intervention outside of use of the military will not be forthcoming.
