    Thompson, who was named CEO in April 2021, was pronounced dead at Mount Sinai West.

    Good thing he had health insurance for his stay at Mount Sinai; some aren’t so lucky thanks to worthless puddles of filth like this.

    Edit: Zero sympathy. Negative sympathy, even.

    It should go without saying that such violence is not good and not supportable.

    That said, I also think those who make monopolistic fortunes off the sick while also dictating refusal of care to the sick are categorically not civilians. It is what it is.

    Insurance companies regularly commit acts of violence on the poor and sick for the benefit of their bottom line. People literally die because of the decisions this CEO made, so when the shoe is on the other foot, don’t come crying because we know you’re not an innocent actor, insurance company.
