Let’s keep this going. If this movement dies down our country is worthless, and I hold very little hope for what follows…

UPDATED- Feb 17th!!!

I completely understand that he is quite handsome, and the edits really are impressive. However, it's important to remember that he initiated this, to spark a meaningful conversation. His primary concern right now is navigating a system that seeks to use him as an example. He's not focused on dating; his life is literally on the line.

Let’s not allow his sacrifice to be in vain. Thank you to everyone who showed up in New York and for keeping the dialogue alive about U.S. healthcare and its impacts on those who aren't part of the 1%. Your support is invaluable.

THEY CHANGED THE COURT DATE IN HOPES OF THE HYSTERIA DYING DOWN! Feb 17th !!!

In middle school, my parents went through a really ugly divorce. My mom got a boyfriend during it, which pissed my dad off.

One day I was out shopping with my mom and my sister called us asking us to come home because my dad had come into the house and absolutely fucking destroyed it. You could hear my dad in the background screaming that my mom better come home or he was going to kill us all.

We took him very seriously and rushed home, because he was unmedicated bipolar, had already broken things in our home, had been physically abusive to us in the past, had PTSD from war, and had access to guns. When we got home, my dad threatened to kill my mom and his four children (age 8, 13, 15, and 17) right in front of us. The cops told my mom that they can't legally make him leave because he hadn't actually touched a person yet and his name was on the mortgage. What they did instead is ask him politely to leave the premises for the night. My mom called his commanding officer (Army) to try to get some help and all he did was make my dad promise not to kill her. Both the cops and his commanding officer told my mom that his feelings were just really hurt because she brought her boyfriend around the kids, and that it was probably a good idea not to bring him around us anymore.

They did absolutely nothing to protect me and my entire family from my father's EXTREMELY credible threat, where he was physically present, had already been violent, and was actively threatening to kill us.

But I'm monstrously relieved to know that they took down Brianna Boston with $100,000 bail and a potential 15 year jail sentence for her vague threat to a corporation in general. Glad to know a woman with no firearms, no intent, and merely speaking out of frustration was considered a credible threat. When our justice system says "serve and protect," they clearly don't mean women and children in domestic violence situations. They don't mean the average person who's just fed up with a system that steals from us and puts our lives at risk every single day.

They just mean rich, white men and corporations.

Brianna probably shouldn't have said what she said. But I'll defend her with my last breath because she stands for something that the vast majority of us already felt. That nobody is looking out for the average person. That nobody values our lives. That our justice system is unfair and will protect the rich fiercely, but not us. A rich CEO dies, and we'll support it and everyone defending it, because he was just one more person in the long line of powerful people that didn't protect us. He's just one more person who left us for dead when he had the power to help. And we are so sick and tired after decades of struggling that we just don't feel like we owe it to him to be the bigger person anymore.

Just so we're clear, this is not a threat of any kind. I have no access to firearms and I have no plans to, nor would I ever, harm anyone. This is not a manifesto or a potential motive. It is an analysis of the situation in context.

Let the alibi memes begin!

let's recap what we've learned about the United States in the last few days.

things that are terrorism:

allegedly shooting a healthcare CEO whose company generated more pure profit (not revenue, profit) in a year than the GDP of 94 countries, exclusively by denying coverage to people who pay for it

a 42-year-old mother of 2 using the wrong combination of 7 words during a heated conversation with a call center employee at a health insurance company who was in the process of denying her health coverage.

things that are not terrorism:

mass shooting in a Black church to incite a race war

going to a BLM protest specifically to kill protestors

a neo-nazi running over a crowd of people, killing a woman

targeting and killing 23 latinos in an el paso, texas walmart

killing 12 people in a theatre, shooting 58 others, rigging your apartment with explosives

a QAnon groyper killing 7 and shooting ~50 at a 4th of July parade

killing 3 people and shooting several others at a Planned Parenthood in defense of the unborn

stalking someone relentlessly and then killing them and their child despite months of the victim making police reports

any one of the 1,200 murders committed by US police yearly, the vast majority being minorities

tightening your border while ~100 immigrants (including children) drown every year in the Rio Grande

United Healthcare killing an unnknowable number of elderly people by using faulty AI to deny medically necessary coverage

Aetna killing a woman by refusing to cover her cancer care

Blue Cross killing a 6-year-old by denying her appendicitis surgery

Cigna killing a 17-year-old child by denying her liver transplant

the pharmaceutical industry killing half a million people with opioids in the name of producing revenues in 2023 that rivaled the GDPs of countries like Spain, Mexico, and Australia.

the United States killing 45,000 people a year because they can't access health coverage

make sure you keep this guide handy the next time you find yourself interacting with your insurance company or any other millionaire, billionaire, or an individual who is part of a protected class such as a CEO or president of a corporation.

Okay, so, friends. Occasionally I see an American post on here about “guillotine the rich,” and it turns out that “rich” means “anyone making over $50k.”

We need to clear this shit up REAL fast, because otherwise it’s gonna wind up like the French Revolution, where more middle class and poor people were killed for being “class traitors” than actual nobles. (Did you know that France has more nobles today than during the French Revolution? While there were a few showy executions, many nobles did just fine or experienced minor setbacks.)

If someone makes $60,000 a year, they are making about twice as much as a full time worker making minimum wage in California, Arizona, Colorado, Connecticut, DC, Hawaii, Illinois, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, New Jersey, New York, Oregon, Rhode Island, or Washington State.

Brian Thompson, the CEO of United HealthCare who was just assassinated in New York City, earned $10 million a year, which means he earned 333 times minimum wage in those states. Basically, he cleared an annual minimum wage salary in just over a day. And that “rich” person making $60k/year that you want to guillotine? He made their salary in a bit over two days of a year.

So he was rich, right?

Well. Tesla is trying to give Elon Musk a pay package of $101 billion. That is 10,100 times what Brian Thompson earned and 3,366,667 times more than a minimum wage worker. (Tesla hasn’t been successful yet because of a complicated lawsuit from a shareholder, but they’ll get there.) If you are a minimum wage worker, Elon Musk makes more every SECOND than you do in a year. And that “rich” person who you want to guillotine? He makes their salary in about 1.6 seconds. Even when he’s sleeping.

Now, remember. The Muskrat also is the head of SpaceX, the Boring Company, X.ai, and X.com, so this is just ONE pay package for him.

What I’m saying is — you have much more in common when it comes to economic grievances with someone earning $60,000 (or even $200,000) than the ultra wealthy that have real power. They are not the people you should expend your energy on.

When you kill a healthcare ceo, it’s terrorism. When someone shoots your kid in elementary school, it’s thoughts and prayers for like a week and then they move on. It truly shows the fact that terrorism is whatever the american government wants it to mean.

[lazydeerperson]

This is ridiculous. Free her. Free her or else we are ALL next. They won’t differentiate between those who accept the ceo killing and those who don’t. Their only differentiation is working class and 1%.

you guys made luigi mangione trend for days and I need to see the same energy for brianna boston. she is a 43 year old mother of three who ended a phone call with blue cross blue shield (after being denied a claim) “delay deny depose, you people are next” and is now being held under a 100,000$ bond and could face FIFTEEN years of prison if charged. she has no weapons, her record is clean, and yet she is being held behind bars. they are afraid of the public and are trying to subdue. do not let them!!!! be outraged that our freedom of speech is being threatened!!!!! deny defend depose! free brianna boston!
