New York Times gift articles

This assassin has created more solidarity over working class issues then the Democrats could, even with 1.5 billion dollars. Fascinating

C'mon man, the hate was obviously there before the killing, it's just that it took a murder to get the hacks at the NYT to cover it.

It is unclear what motivated the incident or whether it was tied to Mr. Thompson’s work in the insurance industry.

This is a joke right? Is the Times being sarcastic?

But that did not stop social media commenters from leaping to conclusions and from showing a blatant lack of sympathy over the death of a man who was a husband and father of two children.

Don't be clueless, NYT. Similar to the blatant lack of sympathy shown by corporate execs over the damages their policies cause in the pursuit of infinite increases to the bottom line? I mean, after a few tens of thousands of collective years of life lost I guess human suffering is just a statistic... The C-suite is well paid enough to not waste too much concern over it. In fact, they probably get paid more for less money spent on those liabilities. All those people denied care were wives, husbands, fathers, mothers, brothers, sisters, daughters, sons....you get the idea. His life is NOT worth more than those he traded for shareholder approval.

Messages that law enforcement officials say were found on bullet casings at the scene of the shooting in front of a Midtown hotel — “delay” and “deny”

That's next level

Good. We pay more for healthcare than any other nation on the planet and the quality is lower than in many other nations. That's a proven fact.

I hope they're scared. They should be.

About seven chief executives of publicly traded companies die each year, he said

This article is a goddamned joke. The poor chief executives! What in the fuck is this.

The hate for our abusive and predatory "healthcare" system has been omnipresent for a very long time. This just gave us all a shared focal point to collect around. I hope this keeps building steam. This one act could lead to collective actions to make these companies scared. These CEOs, politicians, and billionaires NEED to know they are not untouchable. I supported a girlfriend through terminal cancer and saw how "selective" insurance companies can be on what diagnostics and treatments they'll allow. That shit radicalized me permanently.

That hatred has always been there. Media is just focusing on it because someone actually did something about it.

Look at who the USAmerican people voted for despite all their hate for the health insurance industry: a bunch of crooks that make the industry profitable on the backs of their voters.

People can't help themselves but vote against their interests.

A longtime employee of UnitedHealthcare said that workers at the company had been aware for years that members were unhappy. Mr. Thompson was one of the few executives who wanted to do something about it, said the employee, who spoke on condition of anonymity because the company does not allow workers to speak publicly without permission.

In speeches to employees, Mr. Thompson spoke about the need to change the state of health care coverage in the country and the culture of the company, topics other executives avoided, the employee said.

The speeches:

I have a blatant lack of sympathy for the smug liberal elite at the NYT when the guillotine takes off their heads too

A national response of ~~apathy~~ hatred over the cold-blooded murder of a corporate medical business leader may be a reason to take a closer look at our corporate medical system.

This guys roughly as popular as Bernie Sanders was in 2015 and the NY Times somehow can't connect the dots.

The killer apparently used a fake id at the hostile he stayed at, and as well intentionally dropped a burner phone in the alley as he left the scene of the crime

I live in SORROW at this Father and Husband being MURDERED! WHY couldn't they just Murder a Bunch of Children Instead! Or a POOR Father and Husband instead! Then I WOULDNT have cared!

Hatred for C suite leeches is a pre-existing condition, charges are denied
