Maybe this extend to other corporations. Nestle, FIFA, Blackstone…

Astonishing timing

Most likely just spending more on security.

[-] peopleproblems@lemmy.world 45 points 4 months ago

This is the part thats exciting to me.

Who hasn't been affected by this? Or hasn't seen health insurance denials hurt people?

They can pay security all they want. But the security better be truly sociopathic because whatever the salaries they get paid still won't bring back friends, family, neighbors, mentors, etc.

But the security better be truly sociopathic

I mean... the industry tends to attract a certain type.

Let them pay for security. In the words of the IRA: They need to be right all the time, we only need to be right once.

The hurt folks only need to be lucky once.

Do you mean blackrock? FIFA and all the international sporting organizations suck and are corrupt as hell but they’re just not on the same level of evil as health insurance companies. Nestle is, but it’s evilness isn’t really in America, it’s elsewhere, and elsewhere isn’t armed to the teeth like we are.

I’m shocked it’s taken this long.

Indeed it would be a horrible development if the missing liability would be enforced by vigilantes!

I wonder how many it will take until we get universal healthcare.

[-] SolarMonkey@slrpnk.net 31 points 4 months ago

I have enough popcorn to find out.

It would be fucking priceless if America only got universal healthcare as a result of executing rich people. Very character consistent.

Sad, but I mean we take what we can get and that lesson will be around for a long long time if it works…

[-] inv3r510n@lemmy.world 22 points 4 months ago

We didn’t get weekends off, 40 hour work weeks or 8 hour days without murdering the rich.

[-] MutilationWave@lemmy.world 11 points 4 months ago

More like getting ourselves killed protesting, but I appreciate the sentiment.

They know they're evil and everyone hates them.
They're fine with that, cause the money is good and the plebs don't matter.

[-] CileTheSane@lemmy.ca 11 points 4 months ago

And up until now the only consequences, if there were any, were ~~fines~~ the cost of doing business.

If there was ever a time for jury nullification this is it.

[-] MutilationWave@lemmy.world 23 points 4 months ago

Hopefully it never comes to that. I think it's more likely they pick a scapegoat than catch the actual assassin. The pictures that came out yesterday don't even look like the same person.

That corrupt motherfucker Eric Adams needs a win badly. Remember the Central Park Five?

That would be fucking glorious. We've already seen the rule of law not apply to politicians and the rich. Let's see how they like when it doesn't apply to common folk either.

[-] innermeerkat@jlai.lu 79 points 4 months ago

I can’t find where I read this, but very few of the over 16,000 employees mourned the guy, as he was really hated.

[-] Olgratin_Magmatoe@lemmy.world 56 points 4 months ago

I gotcha

Resentment for Thompson was widespread at the company, the employee said, citing an internal company announcement about his death that only garnered 28 comments despite being seen by 16,000 employees.

As one commenter put it: "You know your business is valid and moral when you have to run internal affairs like the mob".

LMFAOOOOO this story just gets better and better

I wonder if even the wife and kids were relieved to see him gone

"My condolences."

This comment is not a guarantee of sympathy. Sympathy must be reviewed for necessity before determination of it can be established.

PR machine already going out to protect the rich.

So is this the start of the revolution we are waiting for since we got into the stage of late capitalism? Can we finally burn those executives which leech from 99% like parasites?

Kinda reminds me of the time Ken McElroy was murdered in the middle of Skidmore Missouri during an altercation where most of the town was present and "nobody saw anything".
