Summary

Reddit’s r/medicine moderators deleted a thread where doctors and users harshly criticized murdered UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson.

Comments, including satirical rejections of insurance claims for gunshot wounds, targeted UHC’s reputation for denying care to boost profits.

Despite the removal, similar discussions continue, with medical professionals condemning UHC’s business practices under Thompson’s leadership, which a Senate report recently criticized for denying post-acute care.

Thompson, shot in what appears to be a targeted attack, led a company notorious for its high claim denial rates, fueling ongoing debates about corporate ethics in healthcare.

    They brutally attacked protesters during the Vietnam war protests, what are you talking about?

    They did in fact stop millions of people in more recent protests, once again by using violence against the protesters.

      As I said, it is not easy. When the elites believes they have no resistance, they pig out…

      There is only so much that cops can prevent in a protest, especially in a day and age of technology where everything is recorded

        I agree with the other things you said about solidarity.

        But your implied view of protests, where the protesters have to suffer violence at the hands of the oppressors, is just insane to me.

        And cops have been recorded commiting war crimes against the American people, and guess what the recordings did? Fucking. Nothing.
