   Whoa. NYT reports the CEO of UnitedHealthcare was fatally shot in Midtown Manhattan in what appears to be a targeted attack: https://www.nytimes.com/live/2024/12/04/nyregion/brian-thompson-uhc-ceo-shot

     @SnowshadowII @briankrebs Can't go around posting #eatherich and then shed crocodile tears at an event like this.

     Applauding the violent death of anyone isn't a good look and going through some of these replies I am surprised and disappointed. I mean, I understand the reasons behind the rage but I can't agree with suggesting this was or should be an acceptable practise. I can think of alternatives that would be much worse and more effective--make the awful CEOs suffer.

     no one is shedding crocodile tears. And "eat the rich" is a phrase not to be taken literally.
     I can never condone murder, never!

     @briankrebs it's almost like 400 million people are tired of getting fucked over by 10 rich asshats or something

     Wow, the comments here somewhat mirror those on Youtube videos about the shooting (e.g "good!" "hero!" "give that person a reward!" etc). It's a safe bet that other CEOs (and potentially other would-be "heroes") are taking note.
