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.

    I would carry out the sentence for some of those fucks just fine. They don’t see us as people, so no reason I should give them the same courtesy.

        Could say the same about the dead guy. There is a 100% chance that his decisions as CEO to maximize profits over everything else have directly led to people dying that otherwise would not have. Whether you’re willing to admit that or not is up to you.

          But he can’t be a fugitive, because you know… dead.
