The attack on the 50-year-old executive—allegedly by the now 27-year-old Luigi Mangione—immediately sparked an outpouring of public fury not at the gunman, but at UnitedHealthcare itself.

    Whilst, I understand your emotion. Always remember violence is never the answer. While, I agree one of the consequences of consensus based discussion is giving idiots a voice but by doing so is the only way forward.

      You would let nazi Germany take over the world instead of going to war, because violence is never the answer?

      Violence is absolutely the fucking answer sometimes.

      Every right, legal or even just societal, that you have, down to fucking weekends and 40 hour work weeks existing as a concept, is because people less cowardly than you were willing to fight for them. Not fight with protest signs and stern facial expressions, but literal fights to the death. Like unions in shoot outs against the national guard kind of fights. Your platitudes are the result of brainwashing from an education system that intentionally leaves out the most important parts of history to convince us never to use the only tool that’s ever worked.
