    When Brian Thompson got shot and people cheered on it Peter Thiel was literally speechless. Billionaires dear mortality in an abstract sense, they didn’t seem to think that the plebs could be a le to touch them.

        Smug. One of the only events in the past few years that incited class solidarity across cultural lines in the US and you see it as valueless because the bullet wasn’t magic.

        Discourses after he was shot demonstrated that Americans, regardless of their political affiliations, recognise the systemic failure to address both the cruelty of healthcare denial and create consequences for those in positions of power. You think they fought tooth and nail to find someone to blame after just because they were sad that this guy got shot? Grow up.

          You’re wrong about what I think and you’re wrong to assert that that is what I think and I’m not taking you seriously because of it.

            Refer to the other comment. I don’t really care if someone like you takes me seriously. I sometimes respond to these things to prevent others like you from feeling too validated when they come across these threads. The deeper you go, you’ll notice its mostly people who hate the first comment that drill down to find others they agree with.
