Fuck the rich kid, Luigi - give us back Brian Thompson

Brian Thompson's dad was a grain elevator worker.

Luigi was a spoiled rich kid. Fuck Luigi. He is who Bill Murray talked about in this speech from Rushmore. And this speech is ever true.

I'm with the kid who grew up with a blue collar background.

Nice 1%er PROPAGANDA, op.

Next you're gonna tell us that all billionaires are good and benevolent.

And that we should all strive to work until we're 80 years old.

FUCK YOU, CUNT!

FF for you.

For those of you who don't follow these things, you can always tell we're about to get a heavy dose of propaganda once the As The World Turns threads get bumped. Like fucking clockwork.

r1, now you're just repeating the talking points from Luigi's family. He was living at a surf resort in Hawaii?

Fuck him. Fuck you too, you worthless piece of subhuman shit. Fuck you with Donald Trump's nasty sperm and die choking on it.

Quit cherrypicking Luigi's story to serve your agenda. You know what you're doing.

Plenty of MAGA assholes come from blue collar backgrounds. I haven't heard one good thing about the dead CEO - he was a drunk driver and inside trader.

by Anonymousreply 7December 11, 2024 11:50 AM

Just for those of you gullible enough to believe this troll, for the record:

- The kid got injured while he was living in Hawaii. - He also had lupus, and his friends didn't believe him when he was having brain fog and other symptoms.

My personal opinion is he 'went postal' after he went from privileged to disabled, getting fucked over by insurance companies like everyone else.

by Anonymousreply 8December 11, 2024 11:56 AM

Thompson coming from a humble background just makes him even more of an asshole. So he knew what it was like to struggle, and instead of helping people in a similar situation he dedicated his life to making their lives even worse? Fuck that guy, he deserved it.

omg FUCK YOU op! We want Luigi!!!

by Anonymousreply 10December 11, 2024 11:58 AM

He’s had chronic back pain since childhood, and it sounds like the surfing injury was the final straw for him. Chronic pain or illness with no relief in sight can surpass privilege, OP. It also could be a factor in his mind becoming warped.

by Anonymousreply 11December 11, 2024 12:43 PM

R11 Chronic back pain? Bullshit. He was on the wrestling team ffs.

by Anonymousreply 12December 11, 2024 12:46 PM

^^Also, he has a documented history of suffering from sleep deprivation, complaining to friends that he’d wake up 10 times during an 8 hour period, so it will be interesting to see if his legal team will use it as part of his defense, even though he went through an extraordinary amount of planning to commit the murder.

Sounds like a typical night to me ...

I also wonder, did the spinal problems hurt his sex life and make him an angry incel? If so, thank god he targeted a corrupt slime bag whose business was denying healthcare in order to maximize profits instead of shooting a bunch of elementary school kids in a fit of lunatic rage.

Hmm. So Brian was a heartless corporate tool but he grew up poor so that makes it ok. DL logic.

The Putinistas and corporate overlords are genuinely scared of this. This isn't about left or right, MAGA/non-MAGA, hence trollish shit like this, which will be going to the podcasts soon. Watch.

Brian Thompson was clearly promoted because he was morally flexible. He was a dummy otherwise.

by Anonymousreply 19December 11, 2024 1:57 PM

I'm with the guy who didn't lie to the DOJ so he could sell 15'000'000 worth of shares. Get cancer in the ass and die OP, but not before you get denied coverage because some CEO wants to make a bridge to wealth out of your corpse.

by Anonymousreply 20December 11, 2024 1:59 PM

Maybe Thompson was symbolically killing his father and the blue collar class he came from and resented by being part of a organization whose actions lead to the deaths of hundreds in the hated class.

Fuck off OP. This is from a doctor and it will tell you every damned thing you need to know about United Healthcare and Brian Thompson, who was in NYC to talk about how much money United Healthcare made by turning down & refusing treatment for their insured patients

[quote]Brian Thompson's dad was a grain elevator worker.

Who cares? That's no more a point of ennoblement than it is a point of disgrace.

The average hourly wage of a grain elevator worker is $20.83 an hour, 21% higher than that of the average American worker and in lne with the average salaries in regions where the highest concentrations of grain elevators are found. In places where there are large grain elevators, the average grain elevator work salary is in line with the average worker. That's not to say grain elevator workers live luxurious lives that are the envy of all, nor that are lined up outside the truck bays to suck dick to make a few bucks to put a loaf of bread on the table.

Are they making $10.6M a year? No, but their sons might do. The same sons who might engineer corporate policies to avoid coverage and treatment for broad classes of health insurance policy holders, and who operate by review policies of deny first, look at the details later, much later.

Josh Shapiro is not a “liberal sweetheart”, R28. He’s a sleazy, corporate Democrat.

I have no idea if this is true. But I was just walking through the airport and overheard a probable MAGAt in a cowboy hat and American flag t-shirt say, "And yeah, that New York shooter, he wanted to get rid of the illegal immigrants too!"

He's a murderer, but the "cold-blooded" part should be left out until a thorough psych eval is performed.

You forgot the likely insider-trading, r26. Yeah, that grain elevator operator’s son really seemed to have learned he didn’t want to return to his blue-collar roots.
