    If the courts had intervened to stop Brian Thompson before his healthcare murder spree then maybe Luigi wouldn’t be being prosecuted right now. This trial isnt about luigi, its about covering up the chain of political failures that led us here.

      A single death is a tragedy; A million deaths is a statistic.

      Luigi killed a dad, husband, ceo, etc, etc etc.

      Brian just inflated some numbers…

      I hate how the world works.

    The amount of people who died as a result of Brian Thompson’s leadership of united healthcare should be investigated instead

      Western democracy is at risk until this is done. We literally don’t deserve to exist if we can’t figure this basic stuff out - i.e. when our own people are dying, maybe the empty private hospital beds and ample staff resources should be used to save those lives. Because people are… gonna die otherwise. The fact that anything else needs to be said is the problem.

        ‘Western style democracy’ has never been truly democratic because of how money influences elections and politicians. True democracy isn’t possible as long as there exists a capital class in society. The capital class will not give up its wealth without a class war.
