The assassination of United Healthcare's CEO is a real life trolley problem, and a select few are trying to argue to save all lives while the train is going to kill the masses.
It appears that in every thread about this event there is someone calling everyone else in the thread sick and twisted for not proclaiming that all lives are sacred and being for the death of one individual.
It really is a real life trolley problem because those individuals are not seeing
the deaths caused by the insurance industry and not realizing that sitting back
and doing nothing (i.e. not pulling the lever on the train track
switch) doesn't save lives...people are going to continue to die
if nothing is done.
Taking a moral high ground and stating that all lives matter
is still going to costs lives and instead of it being a few CEOs it will be thousands.
not a terrible point really, but it's also important to remember how quickly "kill bad guy to save many good guy" can turn into some government just labeling anyone who disagrees with them a bad guy and killing them, or can turn into anarchy. either way preventing murder from taking place, however justified, is an important part of what keeps society from collapsing.
But society is collapsing. The system is completely failing to prevent murder on an industrial scale.
We just elected Trump for a second time. The next four years will make the problems that let that happen even worse. This is what societal breakdown looks like. We're just in the slow phase right now.
get some reading comprehension buddy, I don't disagree with OP. I'm just urging people to remember the potential consequences of something like this becoming too common.
did you urge unitedhealth executive team that "either way preventing murder from taking place, however [UN]justified, is an important part of what keeps society from collapsing."
again, I don't disagree with op. I'm only saying that we need to mind the consequences of this kind of thing. also, modifying a quote is dishonest. I did not place [UN] in front of justified, because part of my point was that the assassination of that CEO was justified. so in summary, you need to improve your reading comprehension.
I added when direct to the United health socne them killing them people is UNjusitgied*
While I don't disagree this is a slippery slope issue, the plebs have been fucked so hard and this job has been done so well, I think pedons are entitled to savour it.
Dude literally killed the parasite and didn't harm harm any one else.
