   Reading @pluralistic 's Radicalized, in which people get so pissed off that they start killing healthcare CEOs and their political lackeys. I'm pretty sure it's only a matter of time before people start going after oil company executives, too.

     @koen_hufkens @Greengordon Nope, that one's mine. But Ministry is a great book and Stan's a national treasure.

     @pluralistic @Greengordon I meant as: the story line has been explored. And indeed, well written and researched. Lived near Zurich when I read it and some Swiss references were on the nose.
