Celebrating murder feels wrong and bad.

But the death of this vile parasite who presided over a nearly 150% increase in denials while living a life of careless excess is a net good.

[-] DragonTypeWyvern@midwest.social 2 points 4 days ago

Murder is a crime.

Justified homicide is not.

[-] OpenStars@piefed.social 42 points 6 days ago

My chief worry is how this event will be "used" to "help" restore "law & order" to "society".

[-] Potatisen@lemmy.world 13 points 6 days ago

Yeah, I understand what he did and I "like it" but it's also a bit bizarre how easy it is for people to celebrate a death. It's still murder, in the open.

I also dislike the mega wealthy but I want to see them suffer, remove their power and money. Death is too easy.

[-] PugJesus@lemmy.world 41 points 6 days ago

Man, I celebrate deaths all the time. The idea that life is always sacred is bull. We are what we bring to the world, and fuckwad CEO brought suffering.

[-] parody 5 points 6 days ago

Suffer? I want them to enjoy nice lives with like one nice car and boat per person

And the rest: for We The People who made everything possible anyway

I think the first copycat is going to get more updoots than Luigi did.

[-] graycube@lemmy.world 21 points 6 days ago

I've seen several very sympathetic posts on LinkedIn, including one that called him out as a hero and role model for coming from a small town and rising to the top of US society.

[-] TheReturnOfPEB@reddthat.com 26 points 6 days ago* (last edited 6 days ago)

If small towns were so great then why didn't he stay there ?

Oh right greed and need of psychopathic power grabbing of the american dream.

[-] GreenKnight23@lemmy.world 5 points 5 days ago

he would have sought mental help for it but his claim was denied based on the fact that it was all in his head.

[-] Delphia@lemmy.world 6 points 4 days ago

I have sympathy for his loved ones to some degree, in the same way I have sympathy for the family of people who commit horrible crimes and then have to see their family member taken away and locked up for life.

Im sure he had redeeming qualities to them, but to society he was not a net positive.

[-] samus12345@lemm.ee 14 points 6 days ago

Doesn't even need any labels, everyone knows what it represents.

[-] TheBrideWoreCrimson@sopuli.xyz 2 points 4 days ago

The grinning guy on the left really makes the image for me.

Business majors aren't people

[-] rumba@lemmy.zip 5 points 5 days ago

Certainly there have to be some Twitter bootlickers out there.

[-] Gork@lemm.ee 11 points 6 days ago

There's quite a few on Reddit, but they tend to be downvoted to oblivion.

I haven't seen any though that actively defend their business practices, like simping for them "they have the right to make as much profit by any means" or "stock buybacks are fine" or "they have the right to deny coverage to increase profits".

[-] Boozilla@lemmy.world 16 points 6 days ago

There was at least one care bear on Lemmy saying 'think of his family', etc.

Nah, I will think about the families of the tens of thousands of private insurance victims instead.

I don’t think empathy is a zero-sum game.

Fuck the CEO and his company’s practices. Sic semper leeches-who-profit-from-making-healthcare-worse.

But I still feel for his kids who lost their dad, and his parents who lost their son. Just like I feel bad for the families who lost people because they were denied healthcare.

Callousness toward the pain of other people isn’t a trait I want to nurture in myself, personally.

[-] possiblylinux127@lemmy.zip 3 points 6 days ago

I think the problem is not them trying to increase profits. The problem is that people are forced to be medically dependent on a company that wants to increase profits.

[-] Psythik@lemmy.world 8 points 6 days ago

You won't find these people online, but I can assure you that they exist in numbers.

[-] PerogiBoi@lemmy.ca 4 points 6 days ago

If you go on Twitter you’d think the vast majority of people are sad about the ceo being deposed.

[-] PugJesus@lemmy.world 10 points 6 days ago

There are people on Twitter? I thought it was all bots and Musk's sockpuppet accounts

[-] KoalaUnknown@lemmy.world 4 points 6 days ago

Just go to twitter, you will find tons of people dicksucking the CEO.

I'm so sad...

so sad for the bacteria that lives on his body.
