Summary

The killing of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson has ignited outrage over the state of U.S. healthcare.

While his murder shocked many, online reactions highlighted public frustration with private insurers, citing denied care, high costs, and systemic bureaucracy.

UnitedHealthcare, a major industry player, has faced scrutiny for practices perceived as prioritizing profit over patients.

The attack, which appears premeditated, underscores rising tensions around healthcare inequality.

Experts see this as part of a broader trend toward violence over societal disputes, reflecting deep dissatisfaction with the American healthcare system.

    It’s like Richard Pryor said about crack:

    Old white women see addicted kids in the ghetto and shrug “Well isn’t that terrible?”
    Then crack arrives at their suburbs and they’re “OH MY GOD IT’S AN EPIDEMIC!”
