What’s with the push lately that I’ve seen to pretend that United and other healthcare CEOs weren’t shitting bricks and hiring personal security for months after he was killed?
Right, they’re just using the idea that a single killing didn’t immediately result in the collapse of the for-profit healthcare system to imply that resistance (violent and nonviolent) is futile.
How else should we interpret “Remember when Brian Thompson was killed and UnitedHealthcare suddenly dissolved?” if not as: “the idea that a single killing didn’t immediately result in the collapse of the for-profit healthcare system to imply that resistance is futile”
Well yeah, of course. More relevantly, I even heard their insurance approval rate shifted positive… For a few months anyway. But If it’s not back down already I assume it will be eventually. The profit pressure is still there.

They didn’t say CEOs weren’t scared

No, you’re inferring that while trying to lump them with an unrelated group of people.
