Hmmm..."Suspect in killing of CEO charged with murder as an act of terrorism"
It's possible that the CEO ran a company that terrorized so many people that more people support the murderer than feel empathy for the CEO, responsible for incalculable pain, suffering, and death.
Poor rich exploiters are terrified the poors are going to rise up and hold them accountable & they think this will put them back in their place. Interesting.
I understand why he would do this, and also why people are on his side and have no sympathy with the CEO, but I don't think one incident and the killing of one CEO is going to make any difference. We need to be cafeful how we respond on here as not to imply we condone what happened, (even if we do) in some ways we need to use this as a platform to speak out about experience with the US healthcare system.
I am from the UK, the stories I hear are really bad, something clearly HAS to change but it seems that the issue is far wider than healthcare, it is about one group being super rich, making money of the rest of the population, ironically people share and discuss on the very platforms (other than on fedi) that pratice the same idea, So it goes back to capitalism and the side effects of that, dismantle that and you then need a better system to take over.
There is currently a british lady trapped in the USA, as she has no travel insurance and was taken I'll, and can't get home, Not sure why she has no insurance when people know full well what the US system is like.
@zleap Or maybe enough people will protest, with this Luigi guy as the lightning rod for change...
With regards to the British woman, that is tough. It looks like she was too sick to afford the travel insurance so she rolled a dice. If this is the woman you mean: https://metro.co.uk/2024/12/02/gran-76-trapped-florida-falling-sick-last-holiday-favourite-place-22103603/
Take a leaf from Islam and make him a martyr and then the cause becomes more powerful.
@zleap I actually wonder if the billionaires will put out a hit on him, to keep this from getting to court because the court case is going to lift up the carpet of their industry to show a lot of crap they've been trying to sweep underneath, hoping people remained too passive to check. A lot of stuff is already being revealed.

@zleap Maybe. The incoming government is really good at creating new outrages to hide current ones. It was why folk were so exhausted after his last regime, it was too difficult to keep up with all the atrocities being committed.
Time will tell, somehow he will do a lot of damage in one area, but pull off keeping his promises in key areas or at least thanks to media and social medias inability to report properly will appear to.
There will be mass deportations, which will tear families apart, but that will tick those boxes, all that will be shown is what the government want people to see.
@zleap He can't do those deportations without tanking the country's economy. He, himself, hires undocumented immigrants to work at his gold course, farmers depend on them, etc.
And he'd have to deport his wife's sister and father, and most of his kids are anchor babies...
Yes, this is who I was referring to.
We have another 4 years of chaos, thanks to big tech, I just hope OFcom in the UK are going to learn from the ruling against ofwat (water regulator) who have been found guility of NOT being tough enough on water companies dumping sewage in water courses. Ofcom need to be tough and no nonsense against social media and big tech or the new laws are not worth the media they are written on.
@zleap Yeah, it'll be interesting to see how the case progresses. Will it make a difference? CEOs are scared, but the incoming government is full of billionaires rubbing their hands with glee over the prospect of taking away existing regulations, so it's possible that they will create laws that will exacerbate what the woman currently arrested and in jail for ending a frustrating phone call with a health insurance company with the words that were on the bullet. Make it illegal to protest.
