    This is such a silly take… This is like saying killing a Nazi officer in World War 2 does zero good.

    Sure, the Nazi’s could use the death of their officer to spin up propaganda, and do terrible things. But a dead Nazi is a dead Nazi.

    In this case, a previously untouchable, evil elite was cut down on the public stage. He was an evil man that hid behind success at all costs as a vehicle to praise and validation… And some random nobody stood up and said “no, I don’t respect your success, you’re evil.” and shot him.

    This isn’t how capitalism ends, it’s how justice and the end of invulnerable elites begins. This is how we end one of the most destructive societal values America still holds. Not with bullets, but with open, brutal contempt for those that reap rewards off the suffering of others.

      I need you to take a step back and realise in that comment you’re calling for open warfare in the USA against Republicans and independents.

      If the Healthcare CEO is a nazi officer then the federal government is high command and the voters are the grunts.

      You’re saving 0 lives with a civil war. Thats just begging for the start of World War 3.

        you’re calling for open warfare in the USA against Republicans and independents.

        Ok? I fail to see the issue, since they have already declared war on the working class.

      look at you lefty, calling everyone you don’t like a Nazi again. don’t you know this is why people become Nazis? just because he was filling the trains to the death camps doesn’t make him a bad person, in fact he most likely grew up on a farm, so he’s actually a working class hero.

        Poe’s Law, some people actually believe what you’re saying.

        /s exists for a reason on the internet, where toneless text reigns supreme.
