Is there really nobody on the internet who actually feels sorry for the dead CEO?

I find the whole reaction pretty distasteful, if I'm honest. I get that healthcare in America is fucked, mainly because of the healthcare companies, but that doesn't mean we should celebrate someone's murder.

Agree. But it's one of those things where your lived experience influences how you react.
Other than being a newb and having to tripple check everything to make sure we didn't get fucked I found it pretty good. We had fertility treatment plus some other bits and I dealt with the admin. But then we had a high end package and in the grand scheme of things no really big items.
I worked for a prescription benefit company and one of the accounts was basically a glorified discount card that low paid workers got so their company could pretend they had prescription cover. Most of the time drugs either weren't covered or could be bought more cheaply elsewhere. When you feel like you're being fucked on your health so someone else can get rich I think your sympathy takes a hit.
It's absolutely personal for so many of them.

I'm celebrating class war gaining a tiny sliver of symmetry.

I'm still shocked that medical bills are the biggest cause of bankruptcy in the US.
It's accepted.
It's nuts

I agree. Even with the level of hatred for the system that is in place, I have a hard time understanding the celebration of a murder.
People should instead be a little more angry on a daily basis and do everything they can to ensure a single payer system gets put in place. Being active and voting is a start.

It's possible to have empathy with another person's death and simultaneously understand the factors that led to such an act.

Ripping people off, of their money, that they have been paying in for years causing them and their familys real pain and painful deaths, leaving huge amounts of trauma in families in what is a form of legalised robbery.
No wonder people are glad and happy someone has stuck it to the Man.

Eugene Victor Debs, American socialist, political activist, trade unionist, one of the founding members of the Industrial Workers of the World (IWW), and five-time candidate of the Socialist Party of America for President of the United States, aged 62, September 18th 1918, minutes before he was sentenced to a ten-year prison term and stripped of his citizenship:

I'm not sure I'm celebrating his death, but it's happened now and I think it's a good thing that people like him should be aware that being responsible for massive amounts of death, pain and misery might have consequences. Maybe we don't need to go full French revolution, but it's handy to have a guillotine knocking about in the background and if it does need testing it couldn't have have happened to a more suitable person.

McDonald's meant it to be a pair of mittens; before the added scribbles, those were thumbs, not hands. Was that your question?
