Sweaty Peter Thiel is definitely going to be the name of our next drink special. "Sweaty Peter Thiel Mocked for Incoherent Answer About CEO Slaying." Thiel, drenched in sweat, struggled to form a coherent response, pausing for over 10 seconds before beginning to speak. Piers Morgan asked Antichrist Peter Thiel what he would say to people who celebrated Luigi Mangione -- who was a fan of Peter
“I still think you should try to make an argument, and I think this is—there may be things wrong with our healthcare system, but you have to make an argument, and you have to try to find a way to convince people and change it by that,” Thiel eventually said.
He lost his composure but I think this is actually a good point. Everybody is talking about how cathartic it is that this happened, and how this guy deserved it, but not a lot of real consideration how this could actually get us sane healthcare.
I can think of two major healthcare concessions that have been made since. Now, whether they were forgone conclusions, I cannot say. But, it sure is cathartic seeing all these scared billionaires trying to talk their way out of why the killings shouldn’t continue until healthcare improves.
I think after 30 Plus years of struggling the “right way” and failing all while hundreds of thousands of us die has made us all a little willing to try a new way. If it fails also then oh well no harm done. At least to no one we’re not willing to lose.
That’s my take, too. I’ve done activism, and peaceful protests, and letters to my Congresscritter, and done it all for a long, long time. Years and years of doing what we’re supposed to hasn’t accomplished squat. Luigi’s activism seems much more effective.
I don’t think the ACA was a failure, it improved some of the most glaring issues, and made a big difference for me personally. US life expectancy has continued to rise over most of those 30 years. Affordability is worse, this particular problem of scammy, “let’s maximize profit by dishonesty and disregard for humanity where we’re likely to get away with it” insurance is worse, but the system as a whole could be allowing more death and suffering than it is.
If it fails also then oh well no harm done. At least to no one we’re not willing to lose.
Maybe it isn’t the person that is the loss, it’s the risk of further increase in the general level of fear, corruption, violence and chaos. Political murders aren’t free. If the answer to how the benefit can be worth the cost (or even how there is any benefit) is “dunno lol” maybe it isn’t.
It sure seems to be working to me. They are afraid at the people they’ve been hurting, the lack of which was certainly part of the problem. And we’re having all this dialogue around it.
why he so thicc
I could only find the big booty version when I stole it, haha
Doc Manhattan has full molecular control over his body. he can be as thicc as he wants to be, atomically speaking.
You may not like it but this is what peak performance looks like

Let him live his dream okay
Those are alpha glutes
The only debate I’ll have is which CEO to kill next.
Perhaps one of the grocery monopolies?
Gyat-damn!
Immediately after that he says
