“He was a person with a deep sense of empathy and clear passion for improving access to care. Our hearts are with his family and his colleagues during this difficult time.”
Really?
I’ve instituted a new and innovative AI algorithm that determines whether my heart goes out to someone who died, as a first pass measure. It really increases the efficiency in determining who deserves my sympathy.
Oh? It has just output: “Deny, Defend, Depose”. How curious.
Probably just AI generated slop. Didn’t even bother with using the in house PR team on it.
“Generate a sympathetic statement for death of person. Keep it under 50 words.”
Getting an AI written eulogy because no human being would do it is hillariously Douglas Adamesque.
They’re in the same business. They have to believe that what they are doing is advancing access to care by making sure the companies are solvent. It doesn’t matter what the truth is. To quote George Constanza- “It’s not a lie if you believe it”
Upton Sinclair — ‘It is difficult to get a man to understand something, when his salary depends on his not understanding it.’
Meanwhile, citing the recent killing of Thompson, Centene, a major health insurer, said it would be moving its planned in-person investor day in New York City next week to virtual, according to a statement from the company on Friday. “All of us at Centene are deeply saddened by Brian Thompson’s death and want to express our support for all of those affected. Health insurance is a big industry and a small community; many members of the CenTeam crossed paths with Brian during their careers,” said Centene Chief Executive Officer, Sarah M. London. “He was a person with a deep sense of empathy and clear passion for improving access to care. Our hearts are with his family and his colleagues during this difficult time.”
Holy yumping yimminy, their gaslighting!
He was a person with a deep sense of empathy and clear passion for improving access to care.
The more they say this shit, the more working folk wake up what this is really about.
Anyone who believes health insurance is about healthcare is deeply blessed to have not had to use it before.
It’s an industry built on denying care.
When you right wing nut friends are gloating with you as left wing nut, you know that these “leaders” fucked up big time.
I never seen such alignment within my life time.
Christmas is finally gonna be a proper family affair too!
All insurance is built on denying payouts. That’s the entire mechanism by which they extract profit.
a big industry and a small community
Translation: many billions in the pockets of few people.
Deny. Defend. Depose.
The NYPD already clarified that the shell casing said “delay”, not “defend”. Please stop spreading misinformation.
Actually, it was 4 casings, saying Delay, Deny, Depose, and Defend. Also, even if it wasn’t, “misinformation” is WAY too dramatic a term to use for making a common mistake about a word when that word is usually used to describe deliberately spreading disinformation.
Besides, speaking of misinformation, “the NYPD clarified” doesn’t hold a lot of weight without confirmation from a more trustworthy source.
Gaslighting generally refers to the act of telling a person obviously untrue things as if it were the truth, usually repeatedly until the person starts to question themselves.
It’s become a popular phrase used to describe tactics of abusers in relationships.
I am aware of the definition. How does this statement cause anyone to question their own senses?
The killer entered New York City by bus on Nov. 24, when a surveillance camera at Port Authority Bus Terminal caught his arrival at 9 p.m., law enforcement sources told ABC News.
If they knew that for sure, they would know who it was. This sounds more like “Of course our surveillance state is working; Don’t you plebes get any ideas.”
He was supposedly using a fake ID, so they trace the fake ID back to the bus tickets…
Doesn’t mean they would know who he was.
I mean, Greyhound lists it as something that they use to let you on the bus without a ticket.

It’s the second and third entry under the “Your Tickets” section.
Even IF they didn’t ask for it and it wasn’t needed, he could used the same name to get a bus ticket that his fake ID showed.
Realistically not having a physical ticket is one less thing to worry about losing that could have fingerprints on it.
From that I’d say they have pretty good matches on him. The bad news for him is that these days with surveillance, you need to be really sneaky before you commit a crime as well as after. It’s hard to cover all your tracks on the way in and on the way out.
It looks like they’re getting better pictures of his face, that’s real bad for him. Personally, I’m not confident he’s getting away with this. It would probably be wise to leave the country asap.
If he is caught and brought before a jury of his peers, then anything might happen. Not sure they will find a jury where all of the jurors will vote to convict him even if the evidence is crystal clear. Cops knowing this as well, I wonder if the guy will not have an “accident” before they catch him.
wow, he’s trolling the cops. He gets more epic all the time. Is this like, Jesus returned?
That would be so incredibly based. Jesus returns, and rather than preaching to anyone he shoots a CEO of an evil company and rides off into the sunset.
Holy shit…it was him!!!
