Hey Taylor. I have a story to tell about how bcbs denied my father, took us to court, we won but by time it was it had spread and well. But what came after and to now. They destroyed my family. Killed my dad. I just need an ear.
And to afford court fees and lawyers he was to give our house to the bank and watch people pay what they wanted for our clothes, furniture, homemade Christmas ornaments…everything
First of all, murder is not acceptable one way or another. Being happy for children being robbed of their father is not acceptable. Being happy about a murder is not acceptable and makes you no different from the person from the person that just got killed!!!!
I don't think we are leaving enough space to mourn the erosion of the rule of law. Insurance CEOs definitely stretch, bend, and buy the law, so they share the blame,but murder is still murder. Isn't this the morality play of Batman?
What if we mourn both and also still discuss the nuance of why someone felt this compelled to take vigilante action? Any death is something to grieve but if someone felt that compelled that a CEO had negatively affected their life, it’s worth thinking about why that would be.
Because it's really nuanced. A lot of people believe what that guy did was right (I don't, but a lot do).
Mostly EVERYONE knows it's wrong. But there's always gonna be some people who don't think it is (killers). It's nuanced but simple. Killers think it's okay bc they're killers.
No one condones a person’s death except you liberals and progressives who inhabit a death cult. You are the personification of everything that is wrong in the world.
People are denied care in every medical system, ever. All of us are doomed to suffer and die. Therefore, the demand for medical care is infinite. The supply is not. So, one way or another, every system says "no." The American system says "no" less than any other. That's why it's so expensive.
The National Health in Britain says no. They should all be m*rdered too, I guess. The Canadians say no. Let's m*rder them too. Being human sucks. We all suffer and die. There isn't enough money in the world to fix it.
What about all the people who don't wear masks? You say they are causing death to the immunocompromised. Your hit list is getting longer and longer, Taylor.
@taylorlorenz.bsky.social, when a civil society celebrates an act of horrific murder and seeks to replace due process with violence, it’s lost something fundamental. Trump and his foul minions want to replace democratic processes with violence. Do you endorse that? If not, stop advocating for it.
So @bsky.app is all sunshine and roses, eh? Like this person here who basically says it’s no biggie to kill the CEOs of companies we don’t like. You can delude yourself on how much better you feel about yourselves on this platform, but to be honest you’re just as despicable here as you were on X.
I agree with you hardcore!!!! I’m a maga guy but if this way of thinking doesn’t have me lined up with maga I’m with you. These health insurance ceos are terrible and they deserve what they dish out. Amen sis
I used to think @jenrubin.bsky.social was the dumbest person on the internet. After seeing your comments over the past couple of days, I owe her an apology.
Did every person who celebrated when US troops killed Osama bin Laden celebrate murder generally, or can you in fact think someone deserves it without condoning murder in general?
I think some people make the world a worse place and while the ideal solution is them changing I'm not going to shed a single tear for them. Are you going to continue dodging my question?
The AI denying care had a 90% error rate. This means that if picked a number 1-10, you rolled a 10 sided dice, you'd have the same likelihood of receiving coverage if it hit. This is Russian roulette in the aggregate that UHC made people pay to play
I 99.9% agree with you on this one. My point of disagreement is this: there is no moral difference between letting die for profits, and killing. Justice required this CEO to be killed because he is responsible for the letting die for profits of thousands of people, and Justice requires an eye 4 eye.
These are the same assholes were saying George Floyd and Michael brown deserved to die bc they were thugs, or addicts. We are just applying the same logic for their precious CEO.
Before making any decision, every CEO should ask themselves, "How many people would like to murder me over this decision? And would my death announcement result in nothing but laughing face reactions on Facebook?"
After seeing the regression of my grandma when she was denied chemo under United for pre existing conditions it really does bring me some sweet schadenfreude seeing what happened to that asshat.
Agree with you 💯! I had to navigate the health insurance labyrinth during my battle with cancer and those fuckers played the waiting game hoping I’d die before covering PET scans and medical procedures. In the words of our soon to be First-“Lady”, I really don’t care, do you?🤷🏻♀️
I have empathy for the deceased and those that cared about him. Its a horrifying death nobody should experience.
My field of sympathy is as barren as my field of fucks.
Certain surgeries, chemotherapy for cancer patients, etc. When a patient becomes too "expensive" for them, impacting their bottom lines, bonuses and making shareholder returns less, they deny care to make sure they stay as profitable as possible. Gotta keep those stocks up!

Health insurance companies have this policy because they know you'll die before court is over.
Americans will save money and be allowed to live by switching to a single-payer universal health care system.
I understand your perspective and appreciate you not backing down from pressure, standing on, and then articulating your thoughts further. 🖖🏽
I can’t wait for an edit button!!
Mostly EVERYONE knows it's wrong. But there's always gonna be some people who don't think it is (killers). It's nuanced but simple. Killers think it's okay bc they're killers.
And there's no point teaching something people already know but just don't care about.
Who would kill a birthing person?
Don't let the surgeon or surgery team wear masks if you need surgery.
Do you condone child marriage too?
Because that's what Republicans are pushing for.
