It’s one thing to mock it on pseudonymous platforms like Reddit and the fediverse.
It’s another to do it somewhere linked to your real name and job like LinkedIn.
People really hate insurance companies.
Don’t do it under your names folks, regime will be making lists based on this.
They are scared and they will lash out.
With that being said, fuck that parasite.
FAFO
You think having a fake online name will stop them from finding out who you are? Did you even pay attention to the Snowden leaks?

They also have backdoors in most implementations of TLS, according to a person I know who worked government security.

Still takes more work than just giving them that information.
I work in cryptography, and I guarantee if that’s true “some person you know who worked in government security” would not tell you if they did know, or they are pulling shit out of their ass. There have been so many people that have looked at or worked on SSL/TLS implementations (including some of my coworkers), any vulnerabilities would have to be pretty subtle or clever, and that would be kept highly classified. Quit making shit up or repeating bullshit you heard.
Sure, if we’re talking about code vulnerabilities only. It’s most likely a compromised root cert though.
That just would allow a malicious attacker to fake being the server, it doesn’t actually compromise the TLS session. So you are talking about a much more sophisticated multi stage attack that needs to be actively executed. This wouldn’t at all allow them to record traffic and decrypt later.
The certs authenticate that you are talking to the real server, the symmetric session keys that are usually derived from a diffie helman key exchange have nothing to do with certs. That’s two separate (but connected) parts of the transaction to build a TLS session.
It is almost never a question of whether it’s possible or not. You WILL make a mistake. It’s just a question of how much effort you’re worth as an individual.
right, don’t make it easy for them. plus they got prolly got half a country to put on the list now.
No, they said we already knew about that and didn’t give it another thought.
They already have lists. The only hope we have is to stand together in solidarity as the working class against the billionaire capitalists entering power.

lol @ thinking reddit is anonymous
i was talking about people commenting on linkedin actually…
nor did I suggest reddit is anon, but aint you aint got provide your full name and address.

Help, I’m now physically inside my system, but it’s kinda hard to read the screen at this angle. Plus I’ve got to reach out for keyboard input…
No you don’t??
Just use an on-screen keyboard smh
Yeah if they fuck with me they will find for sure.
LinkedIn is one of the least sane social media sites I’ve ever had the displeasure of using. Under all the marketing BS and obviously fake feel good stories lie takes that would make your insane Facebook uncle blush.
I used to work for a big data company that tracked shares to various social networks and the frequency with which people share porn to LinkedIn was remarkably high.
What?! How?! So I can learn to avoid it!
Maybe it was only-secretaries dot com.
People are too hung up about anonimity on the internet. When one of my country’s worst journalistic shitrags mandated a real name policy due to the rampant racism and other -isms in the comment section of their articles… nothing changed. People are happily spewing the same vile rethoric as before and proud to, instead of being shamed into silence.
“United Healthcare CEO Brian Thompson’s final KD ratio (7,652,103:1) lands him among the all time greats,” a thread deleted by r/interestingasfuck moderators said.
By definition, none of the kills are his. They’re all assists.
Still pretty impressive ratio though
I would pay for that to be his grave stone
It only costs one bottle of spray paint
They’re gonna have to put this dipshit’s grave on private property.
What I like about this moment is that the people who ought to be fearful are indeed the ones who are fearful. I mean shit, Elon is posting Tweets about how great CEOs are actually, health insurance companies are removing pages from their websites that identify leadership, it’s a lovely little pocket of schadenfreude where we can all take a breath and prepare for the next 4 years.
I like the idea that they’ve got billions of dollars, but will have to live in a windowless bunker eating beans.
They couldn’t even hunker down in their mansions for two weeks of Covid lockdown.
They like to fantasize about it, but the reality of living like that will hit them fast.
This is because they are not self sufficient, at all. They are parasites.
These parasites know that we got numbers on our side and we permit their rule by and large…
I don’t think this corp of owners realize that plebs can turn on a dime, they got too comfortable. This is a wake up call.
Having their goon wacked like this got to make them feels a certain way hehe
I hope there’s a copycat to reinforce the lesson very soon, or they’ll write this off as a one off.
Ive got bullets with words on them and bullets without. But I’m all outta bullets without words on them
This guy was willing to do it for free. Imagine if there was a bounty.
When society gets to the point where you will die if you don’t do anything … or you will die if you do something …
Eventually people realize that they will be punished, threatened or endangered no matter what they do or don’t do, some people will come to the conclusion that they would rather go down fighting.
If you’re going to get screwed doing nothing, some would rather go out on a blaze of glory because they no longer have anything to lose.
I am assuming that when this guy is caught, what we will find out is that his wife had cancer and died from it and they refused to honor their claims or something like that.
Hopefully it doesn’t come to that, and he just never gets caught.
If he does, it’s gonna be one hell of a gofundme campaign for his defense.
Except the government will probably make GoFundMe freeze the funds for the campaign.
It’s a legal defense fund, not a bounty reward.
Granted, they’d probably still do so anyways.
Oh, I’m almost certain that they would primarily because they would not want him having money to fight a legal battle.
He won’t be paying for it in either case, someone will pick this up pro-bono.
if this dude gets found he won’t make it to trial.
It’s been 3 days, and the chances of them finding him go down with every day.
If I was him id be in the Appalachians camping by now with no internet or cell connected devices. Id just wait a month or two and move all of my shit out of new york, mind you he may not even be a New Yorker he could be Californian for all we know.
I legit think the state/oligarchy will kill him silently. Taking it to trial and giving this guy a voice could make things so much worse for them. They’re afraid of creating a robin hood, and class solidarity; of giving the working class a hero and cause to rally around.
They’re so close to creating a robot army that can suppress the masses. They just have to bide their time until revolution is impossible.
I legit think the state/oligarchy will kill him silently.
Wouldn’t that backfire though?
Won’t more people start thinking “So this guy killed a really important CEO and apparently never got caught nor faced repercussions… you know what…”
Dealing with insurance with a nonfatal chronic illness can also be infuriating. You have to keep fighting the same battle over and over and over again.
Or perhaps himself dying of a treatable disease they refused to pay for. He’ll be a hero either way, the question is how much.
Falling Down was in my head this week. The number of people in the US that are close to it is so high, it’s barely fringe. Ironically Trump might just trigger a revolution when he tries to clamp down.
TBF, we don’t know that. Might’ve been a paid hitman.
The professional killer was the one who died.
According to the media, he made a lot of very amateur mistakes if that’s the case. Like leaving a water bottle and granola bar wrappers and being filmed on camera at a Starbucks.
deleted by creator
His DNA doesn’t need to be in any system. These days there are professionals that take DNA results and comb through the databases to find close relatives that are in the system. It’s how they caught the BTK Killer.
Has the Starbucks guy actually been confirmed as the same person? It looked like clearly a different jacket and backpack, I assumed that was either an accomplice or just an unfortunate lookalike, but I suppose he could have changed or it could just be odd lighting tricks.
No, not that I’m aware of.
Does he have an OnlyFans?
Anything sent like that would be frozen. Monero would be the better option.
Can we crowdfund this, and provide a crypto bounty as reward for targets, including politicians, in the same way there was a reward for information on the shooter?
This would be to let those who step out of line know how much disdain there is for any of them in particular at any given moment, and the rewards can be split as needed.
The proletariat needs alternative systems of leverage.
This is for my Purge sequel screenplay, of course. One can dream.
Jim bell ftw
Silly tardigrade’s playing on the wrong side of the bridge. Do they teach nothing at tardigrade music school?
He’s playing Penderecki
Threnody to the Victims of Health Insurance Companies.
It’s also not even a violin.
It’s hard to tell. It looks deep like a cello, but the bridge doesn’t look quite high enough. Maybe at the tardigrade scale stringed instruments are made a little differently.

I couldn’t help but notice Blue Cross rescinded its very dangerous policy placing a time limit on anesthesia the day after the murder.
I don’t want a reign of terror, but perhaps just a little bit of terror will have CEOs thinking they could be next when considering especially harmful policies.
Finding out after you’ve fucked around isn’t terror.
Timothy McVeigh was a terrorist. This guy’s a vigilante.
I guess it all depends how IRA makes you feel lol
Thatcher was the one that got away

Always has been
In France, during the Nazi occupation in WW2, a few people turned to the Resistance movement which was also a terror operation: they would target military objectives but also conduct assassinations of nazi officials designed to inspire fear in the others and spark support in the population.
You just reminded me of a movie and let’s just say I highly recommend it.
On yet another front, the Greek resistance would kill Nazis. In retaliation, Nazis would kill whole villages. Enraged, more Greeks would join the resistance and kill more Nazis. Net result: Towards the end pretty much every Greek was in the resistance and Greece was the only (IIRC, or at least the first or something) country to free itself from Nazi occupation. (Then they became a dictatorship different story).
And you just reminded me of a movie from a show and let’s just say I recommend both.
Just a light drizzle of terror
Technically they didn’t fully rescind it. They rescinded it in some places but not others, and for some patients but not others. It’s just PR, they have no intention of actually changing things.
You know what’s pretty neat about this?
It’s not mob justice. Mob justice is when people get together and come up with bad ideas. This is an individual that the public has now rallied around.
While we only see comments from a select few number of people in this country (relative to it’s size of 350m) it seems that democracy is voicing itself. I know a lot of people who were initially shocked, but then quickly came to the conclusion that FAFO is a real thing.
And health insurance companies have done a lot of fucking around.

Hopefully more of the FO part comes out of the woodwork.
Not a lot of finding out so far though.
Is karma.
Fuck Around, Find Out?
You got it.
EAT. THE. RICH.
Too much fat, it’d be unhealthy.
Separate the fat. Make soap with it. Sell it to the rich.
Tell them the soap removes toxins and you’ll make a killing. Heh.
Wouldn’t that be two killings?
Turn the rich into soap and clean this society up!
They not that much just take a bite and give it to the next
Man, this shit just keeps being funny. The longer it stays funny, the better it affects all involved.
Fuck the media for treating this murder as super important. This is something that only wealthy elites care about.
But if the media didn’t blew it up so much, we wouldn’t get all these memes.
Its the Streisand in full effect.
Im only respond to your words: that only wealthy elites care about. Pedant warning. By responding you are agreeing to a very narrow discussion. Thank you for engaging this point of contention if you choose to do so.
This is inaccurate. my proof is that I know people who are unhappy with the mob mentality around murder being okay. People who dont even make as much as i do, and while i consider myself poor, i recognize im above my areas minimum wage. Additonally I am not a wealthy elite and care about this to the degree that it could be a problem for us non elites if things go badly
I personally midly concerned about what problems this might be showing us. Im not in a position to address or research them and dont claim that what i can see might happen is going to happen. Im opposed to people basing significant hardline stances on unproven and or untested assumptions and predictions. But I do see, without much difficulty or effort, how mobs and pitchforks are rarely proven to be acting on good faith rationality.
So all im asking here is for you to contemplate why you were comfortable making such an easily arguable word choice and if you could be more precise in the future when you really are passionate about an argument you are making.
Okay but why is the media treating this as more important than every other murder? It’s not. That’s what people are mad about. If anything, it is less important, since the motivation is something that not a threat to the general public.
You have violated the terms you agreed to
On the 4th of July, American’s don’t celebrate that British soldiers were killed, we celebrate the society we won in the process.
You think the “shot heard round the world” didn’t hit someone?
We have to start somewhere and celebrate the early battles as well as the war’s outcome
I mean back in the day, there’s a solid chance that shot was way off target.
So, you’re saying that Americans are at a civil war against their upper class?
When the war was still going on, they probably did celebrate the number of enemy killed.
Stop struggling and accept that lots of people are ok with advocating violence against evil people.
I’m curious how many of those opposing the current trend would agree with statements as simple as “It is a good thing that Adolf Hitler, author of the blitzkrieg and holocaust that killed millions of people, is dead.”
Like, I get that anytime Hitler comes up, a part of our mind sorts it into exaggerated allegory. But he was a real person, who existed - and, if he hadn’t died in mysterious circumstances, it would be up to Berlin’s invaders to decide what to do with him.
And, speaking honestly, would giving him an extensive trial and then spend the rest of his life in prison, able to spread his ideology and beliefs to other prisoners, be any better?
I mean, I don’t have a problem with people advocating violence against evil people.
But being happy or laughing does seem pretty tactless and frankly gross.
Death and violence may be necessary in many instances but it should never be glorified or celebrated, simply accepted.
Stop struggling and accept that lots of people are ok with advocating violence against
evilpeople.The Adjuster didn’t adjust the witness, merely the parasite.

Something something and I’m tired of pretending it isn’t, etc. The only thing I feel bad about is if he
hashad young children who couldn’t understand he was a waste of skin, they have my sympathy.Feel worse for the millions of children that are parentless due to his policy decisions. His kids will be FINE.
I would honestly go so far as to suggest that in the long term, not having this monster raise them (given they’ll still have plenty of money) probably leaves them better off.
They’re already teenagers. The damage has been done, but hopefully this act will help them decide not to follow in their father’s footsteps.
His kids are gonna be worse 20-40milliom per head.
They will be fine. I doubt they will ever understand why entire society turned on their parasite shitstain father.
Money doesn’t fix trauma, and childhood trauma is rarely fully healed. The kids did nothing wrong, and you should feel bad for them.
Like I said, my feelings are focused on those he harmed. Eat the fucking rich.
I feel bad they had a monster for a father.
Crying from the 3rd floor of their yacht…
Don’t forget the children whose siblings died due to insurance fuckery, and the parents who’ve lost children.
His kids have been profiting off of the death he had a hand in. They’ll be just fine in their ivory towers, whatever happens.
The shot heard round the boardroom
Plural. Hopefully.
It’s bi-partisan too. Which makes this infinitely more insane
Healthcare fucks over everyone equally, it doesn’t discriminate.
