Following the shooting of United Healthcare CEO Brian Thompson, multiple major health insurance companies have taken their executive leadership pages offline.
UHC, Anthem Blue Cross Blue Shield, Caresource and more are removing or redirecting their about us pages.
I'm genuinely impressed. I might even risk the blow to my mental health to see for myself.
Edit: yeah, holy shit, there's a couple people going "jeez you guys are nasty. I didn't like him either but still" and the rest are treating the shooter like a national hero.
Musk demanded the twitter devs print out their code for review to keep their jobs. So many trees died that day for nothing, and so much toner money was burned. Who is that effing stupid? People were moving multiple stacks of paper as tall as they were down the halls.
He tried to force PayPal to use Windows servers in its data center, when everyone else was well along in adopting Linux. They kicked him out over that brainfart.
Wow you really did it? went to check out the conservative threads? you poor bastard. You need some counseling and a nuclear accident level decontamination shower like in that silkwood movie.
I do the same, peruse r/republican. It gives me a perspective... of how completely out of touch with reality they really are. I read a headline, chuckle like Ralph Wiggum in the bus, and read about 5 posts before my brain starts to melt, rinse and repeat for a few mins then go to saner pastures
Maybe itâs too difficult for them, either through stupidity or for the smarter ones a cognitive dissonance or hiss, to draw the lines between conservative legislative policy and the corporate cronyism hurting the average person. But when they see a very immediate and direct connection, they can support it. Also their guns are supposed to be there to take down tyrants. We donât have kings anymore, but the is the next closest thing.
This is it. The red party abuses the economic hardship they themselves create (and profit off) and blame it on blue/immigrants/gays/browns. They have no incentive to solve economic problems because itâs what keeps them in power.
Edit: blue isnât any better by the way, they just advertise themselves as the lesser evil. They actually need the greater evil or theyâd be out of office in a heartbeat as well.
This reminds me of the girl who had her face ripped off by a bear. When she was asked what the worst part of the experience was, she said that it was dealing with the health insurance companies.
I can imagine.. "are you sure you really need that face? Have you tried masks? Have you been in talks with the bear about alternative solutions? In any case, our resident doctor have decided that this doesn't constitute a health issue and we don't cover cosmetic surgery"
âIâm sorry, we donât currently have a code for âface intentionally ripped off by black bearâ, so your claim was auto-denied.â
âIâm sorry, since you can still breathe and eat, your appeal of our initial denial was rejected, as the facial reconstructive procedures are considered âcosmeticâ in this case.â
âIâm sorry, your second level appeal of our denial was rejected because, in the year and a half it took to get this far, we changed the laws in our favor and are no longer required to cover the procedures and care required for your condition. Itâs also nearly impossible to successfully sue us because we have infinitely more money than you and have congress in our pocket. Thank you for paying your ever-increasing premiums for absolutely minimal coverage.â
So it seems that Cody Johnson had a point, when he said, that Kamala should try to unite Americans against the rich instead of going after the immigrants like Trump.
