Folks, this is Luigi Mangione’s manifesto that the mainstream media don’t want people to read, so please don’t distribute it, m’kay?
@aral Why would the media spread a killer's manifesto? On the contrary (and more civilized countries already do this), the name of the murderer is not mentioned, he is convicted and thrown in jail to be forgotten. Otherwise, a cult will grow up around him, like the one around Breivik. Anyone remember the mosque killer from NZ? Hardly anyone. Let's keep it the same with this one.
@michal You’re right, they really shouldn’t spread a killer’s manifesto like this:
@aral Saying "I don't want Trump for president" does not mean "Somebody kill Trump". Same with those insurance companies. They want to optimize profits, but not purposely kill people like the killer did.
@michal @aral if we consider that the purpose of a system is what it does (regardless of the hypothetical intent of its operators), then at some point we do have to reckon with the possibility that one of the main outputs / purposes of the U.S. healthcare system is the industrial scale murder (along with some off-gassing of permanent destitution and disability) of its customers. but yes, they definitely do also maximize profits.
