The New York Police Department is crowd-sourcing their investigation into the murder of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson to the general public after two days with no positive ID on the shooter. But they may not get much help from the internet, according to multiple popular TikTok sleuths.
It’s funny because 2010 internet would have tried to find this guy no matter the circumstances. I’m glad the enamor of social media has worn off so that “not your army” is completely internalized.
nah, fuck them pigs. they wouldn’t go through this much effort to find your killer, who cares about a millionaire.
Or as Brennan Lee Muligan put it https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bmaoNLSHx_w
Let’s make some fuckin’ bacon!!!
Maybe if the guy wasn’t such a piece of shit the pigs wouldn’t be the only ones trying to solve his murder.
Honestly, i never knew this would be the big event that would rally humanity together–i am 100% here for it though

Briefly.
Anyone who rats him out will be the most hated person in America. There’ll be folk songs casting them as Judas and raps comparing them to the killers of Black Panther organisers and artworks of them burning in Hell with Hitler and Nixon and Murdoch, and eventually their descendants will change their surnames to evade the association.
The most hated on Lemmy for sure. I am less certain about the whole USA. As most are aware, Lemmy is very radicalised.
What are normal people that aren’t chronically online thinking?
If nothing else, this is why I didn’t think anyone would rat him out. Especially for the measly $50k the law is offering. They’d have to make it $5+ million, paid in advance and anonymously, so the idiot snitch could GTFO of Dodge before they come down with a sudden case of lynch mob.
The hostel that handed over images to police before they had a warrant is already catching shade.
Represents a problem with society. Don’t like UnitedHealthcare? - Choose something else. Failed to honor their terms? - Sue them and let people know. It’s how capitalism works. Instead everyone wants to force things to work the way they want and take matters into their own hands. -A bunch of bushwackers.
They way the system works is you you buy a service and then a few years later a fuckhead CEO enshittifies it to appease the shareholders. When it’s something like insurance you won’t know the service is shit until you actually try to use it and your claim is denied. You can’t change to a better insurance company that will accept your claim because insurance comapanies won’t accept a past claim when you sign up for the service.
So you’re fucked while the shareholders make more money and the CEO gets a bonus. You vote for someone that’s willing to prosecute price gougers but she loses the election to the scummiest billionaire out there because people care more about WWE memes than having a good government that’ll prevent billionaires from screwing you over.
Soap box, ballot box, jury box, ammo box. When greedy billionaires have taken control of the first three boxes, they leave people with only one box they can use.
Don’t like UnitedHealthcare? - Choose something else.
Ah yes, of course! Why didn’t I think of that? Guess I’ll wait till next November when open enrollment is back and I’m allowed to change providers to whomever my company picked for me for 2026.
Failed to honor their terms? - Sue them
Another great nugget of advice! My savings of less than a week’s worth of legal fees will surely topple a massive company that has been getting away with this long enough to have more lawyers than I have friends!
If you have a valid case against such a high value target, the lawyers won’t care how much you make.
Yeah because your average person can afford to sue one of the world’s wealthiest organizations.
Get your head out of your ass.
You can’t class action. “by using this service you waive your rights for a class action lawsuit and must settle all disputes via arbitration.” or some bullshit.
You never had a job?
My employer uses United Healtchare, I have no choice in that.
Though Lo and behold, my prior auth that was denied, changed to approved after this.
Why are you blaming this one CEO and not appealing to your empoyer? Prisons were built for people with your mindset. -You’ve never been to prison?
Why are you blaming this one CEO
Under his leadership United’s denial rate has increased dramatically (to 32%, double the industry average), and they implemented an AI model that was known to be racially-biased and had a 90% defect rate in its determination. This particular company and CEO are egregiously worse than the rest of the already fucked up industry.
Again, you never had a job? That not how that works. This CEO however, is in charge of the company that denied my PA. So theres that.
