        After someone’s responsible for the deaths of thousands, and suffering of millions more? Even beyond what he did or didn’t “deserve,” it was simply a practical choice to put him down and prevent him from hurting anyone else.

          He didn’t kill anyone.

          You’re saying that anyone who works at any company should be killed. (Including yourself assuming you actually have a job.)

            United healthcare has the highest denial rate the in country. He’s absolutely killed thousands, and would’ve killed many more.

            I’m not saying anyone should be killed. But anyone who makes a living on the deaths of others certainly deserves it. For example, even assembly line workers for manufacturing white phosphorus or cluster bombs. There are some types of income that are unjustifiable.

            An argument could be made for “yes”, and with nuance, the justification gets stronger the higher up the food chain you go.

        People would say he was personally responsible for death and destruction of millions by making up reasons to deny them the necessary care for life and health of them and their loved ones. For me there is minimal difference between him and Hitler, Stalin, Putin.

        Do I condone murdering them like they murdered others, no. But at the same time I can’t condemn anyone who has done it nor feel bad for the dead.
