news Luigi Mangione couldn't get care from United Healthcare for his spondylolisthesis

[Cottonmouth]

I know I was kikiing, sharing and liking posts about this dude being hot, but kind of surprised this thread is still going strong .

 

Some of y'all fanfic, thinkpieces and parasocial relationships I see online with this dude are starting to get a bit weird

He is a very handsome man, but like, I see hundreds of guys like this on a weekly basis just going out in the streets and going to the local malls. Where are y'all living if this isn't common?  

this  and he's not THAT hot at that  the amount of people who are developing a whole one sided relationship and defending it when you call out how weird it is  like i employ people to actually go outside and talk to people. this whole thing is so strange to me beside why are we collectively thirsting over an above average white man with privilege who has the mentality to kill someone because he didn't get his way?

now that I'm unbanned for saying the truth about Beyonce, let me give my thoughts on this.

 

1) healthcare in the US is beyond messed up. health is a HUMAN RIGHT. your life is not a commodity to be traded on by shareholders. everyone deserves the dignity of healthcare.

 

2) murdering the ceo of an insurance company is nothing but an act of narcissism. yes, he suffered at the hands of the american healthcare system, yes he had every right to be angry, but murdering the face of a company doesn't solve anything. the ceo will be replaced. gen z will move on to the next tik tok fad. with this man's intelligence and money (he came from a rich family), he could have dedicated his entire life to healthcare reform. getting involved in politics, giving speeches, working for a non-profit, volunteering, becoming a spokeperson for a failed system. instead, he did this one act and now he has to sit in a jail cell for the rest of his life. versus committing to a life of championing healthcare reform. he was angry, he was shortsighted and did what he did. but in no way am I celebrating this or calling him a freedom fighter. I feel sorry for him, that's all. a shame that this is the way it turned out for him, because he could have done so much more for a man in a privileged position as his own.

with that being said, I genuinely hope something comes of this and some reform does happen but we all know there isn't. I feel bad for Luigi because he obviously had a future ahead of them and now all he has is creepy strangers perving over him, three hots and a cot

GIRL, I know you're not telling people to go outside with 37,000+ posts to your name  "He didn't get his way" is a funny way of saying he was denied critical care by a greedy insurance company that dolls out death sentences on the daily. PLEASE

Andrew Witty, a British man living in the UK, being the past and now once again present CEO of an American health insurance company feels a bit like feeding ground beef to a cow. This is a man that will only ever have to pay, as a rough estimate, about £120 a year for all his repeat prescriptions (if he even has repeat medications) living in England. Yet he's making, and has been making, millions off Americans who can't afford everything else he's got access to in England for free. You can't write it.

What now? It already happened. you look foolish and well, you're not above anyone here. I see you frequently run in to threads to tell the girls they're being pathetic, but you don't realize while you do that, YOU look pathetic.

Please keep screaming pArasOciaL!!!! at the girls while camping out on ATRL 24/7. And it's not necessary to stalk someone that's in EVERY thread on this site  Goodnight!

It was fun guys. It's 8pm here and i've only commented in about 10 threads in  11 hours. I'm a little behind schedule in being in EVERY thread with the thousands that I have left to enter 😭  Bye bye

I lost brain cells reading this take. You literally spend your life on ATRL racking up over 30k posts, obsessing over the lives of celebrities that will never know you even exist, and then have the gall to dismiss this whole story because you don't think the guy is hot and haven't taken the time to look into his motive? Newsflash sis: this guy has changed the conversation in America about healthcare access overnight and has united Dems and Repubs on a single issue for the first time in almost a decade.

 

The ramifications of what Luigi has done here will show in the coming months in how the government proceeds both pre and post Trump inauguration. One bad move by the White House in their response, whether it be stricter laws and more police, and the entire country could fall into a revolt.

 

Being purposefully dumb and flippant on such a serious topic makes you look worse than you realize.

and killing a ceo does? I'm sorry to dissappoint you but you expect the american people, who just voted for a man who represents ONLY the interests of the billionaire elite, to start a revolution? the ceo is dead, and now there's already a new one. gen z will move on to the next big fad.

OOhhh ya'll - just checking in on how my boo is doing today.

hope he's feeling my love, virtually.

anyways, I told my psychic to send him good vibes so he's feeling fine, and feeling good.

she's the same psychic who told me lady gaga would flop so I trust her.

If you're reading this (or feeling my vibes) - 143, Luigi!

also, healthcare insurance companies rake in billions, they will be fine. United has already found a new CEO and will continue to exploit millions. they can take a few jokes, they will be fine. 

 

get off your high horse please

Oh my God. Please people STOP with this moot talking point.

 

In 1993, the most powerful man in the country, the president (Bill Clinton) and his wife Hillary devised a task force to enact universal healthcare for all Americans, for once and for all. It went all the way to the US Congress. It was then opposed so fiercely by Republicans and the health insurance industry (ding ding ding) who threw millions and millions at TV ads, lawsuits, personal attacks on the Clintons, and coverage from Time, CBS News, CNN, The Wall Street Journal, and The Washington Post. This diminished Hillary's popularity so considerably that she was barred from bringing it up again for the rest of Bill's presidency. All of this despite that she had 15 years of political experience by that point, and completely knew her way around the machine.

 

The following year, the Republican Party captured unified control of Congress for the first time since 1952.

 

So please tell me what you think random person Luigi Mangione could actually accomplish to champion healthcare reform.

Babe, please stick to dissecting Nicki Minaj narratives and lashing her accordingly. We ALREADY tried everything you're suggesting - It didn't work!! The people that voted for Trump voted to EJECT the status quo (including the billionaire elite). They don't know that Trump is the same type of scumbag they hate because he's cloaked his true intentions with effective populist messaging. 

 

The girls want Universal Healthcare, across the spectrum, across class lines, across races and identities: WE ******* WANT OUR RIGHT TO LIVE

Here's Ady Barkan, who recently died before the age of 40 due to rapidly worsening ALS and who dedicated his entire life's work to trying to end for-profit care.

 

 

Randomly, here's also the last Democratic nominee for president, Kamala Harris, lying to him back in 2020 and having to pivot to performance and tears - changing the subject of if healthcare is a right to her mother's cancer diagnosis because she couldn't answer Ady straight to his face about why she didn't actually support Medicare For All:

 

Odd there's confusion over why the general public don't consider Democrats a party concerned with improving healthcare and rushing to solve this via electoral politics.
