UnitedHealthcare CEO shooting supporters may target police, courts: Analysts
Luigi Mangione -- the alleged killer of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson -- has been greeted by a surge of enthusiastic online support.
Less than two weeks after UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson was gunned down on the streets of midtown Manhattan, his alleged assassin Luigi Mangione has been greeted not by universal condemnation for the brazen violence -- but rather, a surge of enthusiastic support online for his so-called vigilante justice.
The Center for Internet Security (CIS), a nonprofit focused on cybersecurity that partners with government and law enforcement, released a new threat assessment bulletin warning that online support for the alleged shooter risks encouraging copycat attacks.
"Overwhelming bipartisan support for the attack" across social media "has resulted in several narratives encouraging similar violent activities directed at other healthcare executive teams," CIS analysts said.
"The narratives supporting Mangione's targeted attack likely serve to encourage like-minded individuals, particularly as Mangione continues to be viewed by the public as an 'American hero' and sympathetic figure," CIS' bulletin said.
You're viewing a single thread.
Oh, lol.....they think people are only going to target other healthcare CEO's? That's fucking adorable.
Hoping our boi Luigi set the stage for a revolution to finally start. Idk what I can do to fight the good fight other than to continue to be loud about all this shit.
At least the more of us are loud the safer each of us are. So free Luigi and may the proles get a little something without society collapsing. Either way it's definitely a good show....
Radicalization is required as an existential evolution.
