Luigi Mangione

I’m interested in hearing thoughts on the Keyhero community's stance regarding the Luigi Mangione issue. Are there any supporters or detractors here?
Well, I won't be holding my breath for the widespread issues with our healthcare industry to be solved by this senseless act of violence committed by some whack job. By your logic we should all go out and assassinate the nearest healthcare CEO. People who worship Mangione have no clue how things actually get done, and have no interest in actually solving problems because solving problems is hard f***ing work and shooting an unsuspecting victim in the back is much easier.

Luigi is based. That is all.

Chad lives 2 months of the incel lifestyle and crashes out. Nothing to see here.

Detractor. He's a murderer, he didn't accomplish anything, he doesn't deserve any admiration or praise. I don't understand the (mostly young women) lining up to worship him, people did that to serial killers like Ted Bundy, and this is just as sick. That's not how you solve problems, demonstrated by the fact that nothing about our healthcare system has changed as a result of this crime.

Sure, he may not have completely changed the industry. But if you'll allow yourself to pick up any old history book, I'm sure you'll see many examples of how people have used violence to solve problems. Even if his actions went completely unnoticed and had zero impact on anyone anywhere (which is not the case), that still wouldn't constitute a logical proof for your claim that violence doesn't solve problems.

Violence solves problems. It almost always creates more problems than it solves, but it solves problems. Anyone who says otherwise should be introduced to the concept of books.

He didn't change anything about the industry. The only thing he did was prompt CEO's to hire better security.

How about you allow yourself to pick up "any old history book" and actually make an argument with examples about how violence solves problems instead of implying I'm stupid and pointing to "books" to make your argument for you.

If violence creates more problems than it solves, then it definitionally does not solve problems. And neither did Luigi Mangione.

Violence can very obviously solve a specific problem. Whether or not it creates other problems has nothing to do with the fact that it solved the initial problem. Every nation has been built on violence. Laws and interests have always, eventually, been enforced by violence. Let's stop pretending the world is Disneyland.

What problem did Luigi Mangione solve? Seriously. Nothing about the healthcare industry has changed. He just murdered someone.

His actions as well as those he inspires will definitely give insurance companies pause before deciding to implement more predatory practices. Having to hire more security affects the bottom line.

It's laughable that you're arguing his actions had zero effect, almost as though they went unnoticed. They're part of a bigger pattern. Just because a single man's act of violence had no immediate obvious effect on the structure of a major industry doesn't mean it had or will have no effect at all. And we've seen that as far as one person's influence can go, it has had some effect.

Nobody's claimed that violence would outright solve the dumpster fire that is the entire american health insurance industry, buddy.
