That douche bag CEO isn’t gunna get his life back and so on top of the reviews we got:
- One dead asshole, hell yea.
- That one company rolling back their decision to charge even more for anesthesia.
- A whole lot of people learning even more about how fucked up healthcare really is.
- A bit of an uptick in class solidarity
- One step in the right direction.
Shut the hell up, is what I’m trying to say.
FYI they only rolled back that change in one single state. The change will still happen in other states.
What kinda fuckass McDonald’s worker calls the cops on a folk hero? This is why we will continue to be curb stomped by the boot.
A well trained, well beaten dog.
An economic Uncle Ruckus. They train us from birth to see shame in not being wealthy, it sadly works. Some of our economy’s victims internalize their own dehumanization and see it as the natural order to report on their fellow inferiors to their betters.
The same people mourning BriBris loss by hilariously trying to shame everyone for not condemning his murder while conveniently ignoring all the people he murdered through policy, and whose policies murdered people yesterday, and will today, tomorrow…

The rich man provides us with meaningful work and purpose and we throw it back in his face by unionizing and wanting to take more of his money! We nasty poors must follow the rich man’s example and one day we may be as cultured and decent as he is.
Praise the rich man and his benevolent ways!
The difference between a wanted murderer and an unsung hero depends a lot on how much, and which, media a person consumes.
I like to assume the average person is apolitical and pays only a passing glance at headlines.
That’s just it though, the “passing glance” types that don’t pay much attention to anything at all will just assume the truth is whatever headline runs across their “feed of choice” the most often. Usually from large corporate outlets.
Pretty much. It’s a tired analogy, but the “unawakened” people in The Matrix come to mind. They’re not helping the cause, but it’s not right to declare that they’re evil or deserve hate like OP was suggesting.
They don’t know any better but that doesn’t mean they deserve ire. They’re reasonably reacting based on the information they have.
…and a cold dead CEO responsible for stealing our money and leaving us to die. You left that part out.
which is great, but let be honest : it accomplish nothing , unless as a reaction, people act and do something about billionaires rulling the world. one star review bomb wont cut it
Insurance companies behaved themselves for a few days. That’s already saved lots of lives, making the whole thing balance out as a positive.
I’d be banned by the admins for suggesting how this momentum could be kept going.
This is ml. I don’t think violence against the rich or jury nullification can get you a ban
A surgery that my little one needed was being denied by insurance two weeks ago. Yesterday when calling for the pre surgery instructions we were notified that last surgery was approved. So we were doing all three requested surgeries at once and only having to put her under once.
I don’t know if this was the cause but there was a 180 on the approval.
It sends a message and that message was heard. Rolling Stone and probably other outlets, published an article talking about the collective disdain that the working class has expressed in the wake towards the healthcare industry—a hatred that reaches across aisles. It’s a tiny reminder that the working class outnumber the ruling class. Don’t rule out more things happening. People get inspired.
This meme is astroturf propaganda to try to discourage the working class. There are plenty of stories of insurance companies reversing their decisions and approving procedures that they had denied the day before, or not going through with plans to reduce coverage.
That is what happens when the 1% are reminded that they are outnumbered 99 times, and that those with nothing to lose have nothing to fear.
Someone mentioned how the first time there was a school shooter, everyone took note. And now we have school shooters. It’d be interesting if this became a thing.
