"CEO helpline" must be the most embarrassing idea ever devised by the American elite 😂😂😂😂

Millions suffer and die with no voice, Luigi just gave them one.

These feelings of extreme animosity toward CEOs and corporate executives is not just something on the left. This cuts across both lines and actually unites the right and the left in the recognition of who the real enemy is. The enemy is not each other, but the corporate money that has captured our government and the entire system for its own profit. To the detriment of the people.

Stop the genocide.

United Health Group lost $55 billion in market value in a single week (December 06, 2024) according to YCharts data. Bravo Luigi!

This Luigi guy managed to get the attention of the gaslighting ruling class faster than decades of talking and groveling.

[beachgirlshari]

They were expecting a civil war, not a class war. Vive la révolution!

Millionaires and billionaires are the problem. Every time.

[emiebex]

Billionaires are finally living in fear and don't feel so untouchable...it's beautiful.

[xensonar]

Nobody needs that much money and nobody deserves that much power.

The working class who are wise to the game know that the US Government and state apparatus is not "our government." It is the tool of the class which owns the means of production, here and abroad. The wealthiest 10% own three quarters of all the wealth. The main task of their state is to maintain the system of exploitation, not just in the US, but throughout the world that US imperialism dominates.

This significant event in New York should not be a surprise. It was inevitable. The only question is who would be willing to sacrifice himself to do it.

[troywalkertheprogressivean]

The ceo was an assassin. Agreed to unalive people for a price.

Judge a country by how it treats the least fortunate of its people

[denemessina]

Poor little lambs. It's so unfair that they should have to live in fear when they are only responsible for the deaths of 1000s of Americans.

[mindmesh]

What an unreal time in history we are living in these days.

[chasjacks]

Teddy Roosevelt in 1906 said that corporations do not care about people or country they only care about profit. So he has destroyed the lives of literally millions of people by concerning himself with profit over supplying the product in his contracts with the patients. But we should care about him when he doesn't care about us. We all pay the consequences of our actions and so should he.

Hatred and rage for CEOs and our broken healthcare system is a NON PARTISAN issue . IMO, their real fear is that this is uniting the people, and THAT scares the crap out of them, so don't divide us on this issue.
