I would never advocate his method as a first option, but it’s not like the healthcare companies just now started hurting people. Lots of people over lots of time, eventually that distills into one shot of very strong liquor

Yep. How many decades are people supposed to wait while they see that their votes never get them any sort of change no matter which of the two corporatist parties who take money from that industry are in charge? If voting and protesting doesn’t work, what option is left?

At least Mangione did something, and he did it at great personal sacrifice.

I do advocate his methods. I hope he inspires many more heroes. I hope 2025 is the year of many more dead parasites.

I think your post might be illegal speech in most of the U.S. as inciting violence. Take care of yourself.

Oh… seems I totally made some typos in that last post. I totally meant to say I do not condone this super cool guy’s actions, and obviously who doesn’t want to see a bunch of dead parasites. Nobody likes bedbugs and tapeworms.
