Two months after UnitedHealthcare chief executive Brian Thompson was killed, UnitedHealth Group has hired a defamation law firm to take on social media posts that it claims are untrue and reckless, according to Bloomberg Law.
Maybe another Luigi will set em straight 😄
United health had a teachable moment and they don’t appear to have learned anything.
United healthcare put a hit out on Brian Thompson and they framed Luigi mangione as a scape-goat because Thompson was too woke
I second or third this.
Thats what I heard, too!
Well shoot, what’s it going to take to get them to change their ways?
Well, shoot.
You make a great case, the shell of the idea seems pretty sound. It will be a real slug for some of us though.
I feel like the answer is here somewhere, close at hand.
The answer will blow you away.
Universal Healthcare
No amount of CEO assassinations is going to change their behavior.
I’m okay with testing your hypothesis.
There’s a whole risk analysis folder somewhere detailing exactly how many of their CEOs can be killed before it’s not worth insuring them for CEO deaths. It’s just some postmodern dystopian version of The Price is Right.
Missing from the title, Clare Locke is the name of the firm
They make profit off of being a useless barrier that prevents customers from accessing money they’ve contributed to use towards their own healthcare. They do nothing of any real value. Their constant profit seeking kills people. Every single administrator in their company is killing people.
Luckily, they won’t come after me because everything I said was true.
United health CEO:
"Alright, the way I see it, we could pay ourselves less absurdly…
…
…haha okay just kidding.
Our options are to either kill less people and make less money…
… Haha okay, so that leaves us with “Spend millions on frivolous lawsuits in an attempt to strongarm public dissent.”
[Shareholders cheer]
“Strongarm the public it is!! Who needs the profits when we can use them on power”
Well, what do you want them to do? Pay for the services people pay them for? Kill fewer people? If they did those things their shareholders wouldn’t make as much profit. Their CEO wouldn’t be able to say things like “we guard against unnecessary care” and he wouldn’t be a multimillionaire not even living in North America. He might even have to realize that doctors order care in good faith, so unnecessary care is almost not a real thing.
Damn, imagine if they put this effort into being a less shitty company.
And put the money into saving lives.
I’m starting to understand why Japanese defamation law is so weird.
“the act of unlawfully lowering the societal evaluation, such as the credibility or reputation, of a specific person to an unspecified or broad audience.”
It doesn’t matter if what was conveyed about the “injured” party was true, only that it harmed their reputation.
Can’t wait for our current government to follow suit.
United healthcare runs a death Mill and the CEO tend to torture puppies at their headquarters.
Dispose, seems to be my fav new word to say to CEOs.
UnitedHealth hired a defamation law firm to go after social media posts criticizing the company
Whew, better be a big firm. Do you think they can analyze all those posts before the heat death of the universe?
That’s just silly.
United Healthcare isn’t a company.
It’s a state sanctioned confidence scheme.
UH is not looking for posts like the these. They want to sue the ones that go viral
Who gives a crap what UHC is looking for?
From denying healthcare, to denying denying healthcare
soon they’ll be denying denying denying healthcare
Dear UnitedHealthcare,
I’ve had your coverage before. You’re the worst health insurance I’ve ever had. Not only was I paying your premiums, but my healthcare costs were like I wasn’t even insured to begin with. My financial situation would have been marginally better if I hadn’t been paying for your coverage at all and this was at a time when I could barely afford rent and food. Go suck on some donkey ass.
Sincerely,
A former customer
“You’re the worst health insurance I’ve ever had. Not only was I paying your premiums, but my healthcare costs were like I wasn’t even insured to begin with.”
They take this as a compliment
