Summary

The FBI is offering a $50,000 reward for information leading to the arrest and conviction of the gunman who killed UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson.

The gunman, who arrived in New York City on November 24th, shot Thompson on December 4th outside a hotel hosting an investor conference.

Investigators believe the gunman, who concealed his identity with a mask, fled the city on a bus, leaving behind a backpack in Central Park.

Yeah people don't realize they reject paying out reward money the same way insurance rejects paying to keep people alive.

You only get it if you directly lead to the correct arrest and that they feel they absolutely couldn't have gotten the arrest any other way and they will always pretend they could have done it without you. It's liberals after all.

"Hey guys, what if instead of a class war we just kept saying derogatory things about each other while the 1% laugh at us?"

[–] [email protected] -4 points 1 week ago (1 children)

How about liberals stop moaning when other members of the working class try to respond and get stuff done and they just complain that people didn't elect a person to stop all the bad things from happening for them?

Who's doing that? I'm not seeing that. All I'm seeing is you trying to shift the conversation from "billionaires bad" to "liberals bad" for no apparent reason which is exactly what the 1% want.

I've apparently pushed a button so I'm gonna assume you associate with the title.

Yeah I'm not gonna bother but the liberals are the people that didn't let the US run a candidate that said anything bad about billionaires and sided with the economy, and have since after blamed people of minorities, and wine loudly when people point out their hypocrisy and lack of action.

The petite bourgeoisie won't let us get even close to the real ones while they state we have to do things their way.

I'm fine with saying fuck billionaires and will be happy to keep working towards their end, I'm just not gonna hold my tongue about who isn't on our side.

Yeah I'm not gonna bother but...

Procedes to bother for 3 paragraphs

I'm not black either, but if somebody randomly decided to blame black people for the system being bullshit I'd call that out too and tell them "you're directing your anger towards the wrong people."

Ah random racism to deflect. Definitely a liberal.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

What racism? The only deflection is your taking the time to go on about how you hate liberals instead of focusing on the systematic issues at hand.

[–] [email protected] -2 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Groups asking other people to put in the work to make them money or do their job faster? I mean the insurance companies that pretend to be helping people sure are and honestly how cops operate lately yes. Almost like they have unequal treatment of others based on how useful they think they are to society and it's ability to generate more wealth?

Leaving it up for someone else to solve is very liberal if nothing else.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 week ago

Could cops and billionaires be the problem?

No, the liberals are to blame.
