But mostly, McWhorter said, “there’s this weird thing, this vibe of like, I don’t see a bunch of people just feeling an urgency.”
Urgency. If I got shot in NYC the world wouldn't know or care. I wouldn't care if they cared.
Tell me why I should show urgency to help? I know nothing of him beyond being a leader in a pond scum industry.

Especially since the wealthy show no urgency with mass shooters and funding mental health programs along with whatever else may be fueling violence in the country.
Cool fact, having harsh sentences and more police isn't the golden bullet to crime. Address poverty, provide upward mobility for the masses, healthcare, and a number of other things is a good way to start.

They're offering a $50k reward for any info about it. The very same day a kid was stabbed to death for being foreign but curiously there doesn't seem to be a reward here.

$50k would only cover a fraction of the out of pocket costs of the heart surgery I need and United keeps denying. They can keep the reward money.

The estimated death toll of UHC denials under his tenure is 7.6 million.
Know that he belongs on the same page of the history books as other mass murderers like Hitler, Netanyahu, and Biden.

Just as a question: wouldn't this mean every US president is a mass murderer

Because the 99% is tired of the 1%.

We're also tired of gofundme pages being used to pay for people's absurdly high medical bills as a good thing in those perseverance porn stories.
I'd rather my tax dollars just pay for everyone's healthcare instead of donations.

Yeah but if you spend all of that money on keeping your own people alive, you have less money for killing people in other places.

u/Famous-Example-8332 20d ago
Yeah and Then where would we be?

A disservice to the public on top of the pittance of a reward. I hope the trend doesn't end, things really need to change.

At this point I’m not even sure they will find him. First 48 and all that.
What’s more we’ve no way to know if the photos they are showing are actually the guy or not.
The ruling class has every reason to shape the narrative that what happened is something that can not happen. So yes they may actually have a lead and actually catch our guy, or they may just fabricate a case on anyone close enough to be plausible.
They will most likely kill this person, explain it away as resisting capture. If it’s the fall guy it stops them from contradicting the narrative, if it’s the actual guy it avoids the even greater risk of no jury conviction.
Whatever happens next you honestly can’t trust it, because there is too much at stake to allow us to think we could actually do something here.

Millions of people die every year, and thousands are murdered. Tell me why I would care about this one particular fuckstick who genuinely deserved to die. I decline to aid the state.

They won’t help because they know the world is a better place because this happened. Did you see BlueCross reverse their new policy to only cover anesthesia for half of surgeries? This is directly related to their execs not wanting to meet a similar fate. I applaud the shooter personally.

Thoughts and prayers? What else could they want?

They probably don’t want advice but here it is. Stop paying ceos and upper management so much money. Cap salaries at 200 to 300k. Raise minimum salaries to 75k.
And obviously be a better business. Add back humanity. Help people with your companies. Fuck bottom lines, quarterly earnings and shareholders.
