    If this is the best thing to happen to health care discourse then we're truly fucked.

    not to mention the message that’s been sent to every health industry executive in this country by all the people, again across the political aisle, laughing and making jokes about the evil fuck being murdered in cold blood. this is a net good and the guy having incoherent politics doesn’t matter.

    If you think this is going to make a single CEO do anything other than hire more security then I've got a high-deductible plan to sell you.

    Idk that line that’s quoted is really all he needed to say so 2 pages actually seems excessive

    But this is my point. The discourse has quickly shifted from the action, and the message that was being sent, to talking about the actor, which is a distraction.

    It is fucked that criminals don't get to profit off of selling their story.

    Also, don't you dare blame me for Dave Franco.

    We have been truly fucked for a long time. This actually is the best thing to happen on healthcare discourse, as sad as that is. We just had an election where it wasn’t even a topic and now someone gets murdered on video and it’s been praised because health insurance is so unpopular. It’s good that this is the discourse given where we are on healthcare in this country

    I want the discourse to stay on healthcare though, not the overly-online dweeb the rest of the overly-online dweebs currently have a hard-on for.

    Me too! But his details are just coming out so it’s expected right now. I think unlike the unabomber who touched in some truths about society but killed innocent kids, this guy only killed someone who we all agree was bad for society. So I think his action here is something that can continue to be talked about while his personal details will fade.

    I was just commenting about how both sides are still embracing the sentiment.

    But apology accepted, don't let it happen again.
