My assessment is that it would not. If you feel otherwise then feel free to act.
I don’t think Luigi achieved much with what he did. He’s now in jail and UnitedHealth just hires someone else to do the same job. It’s also different because his act was not perceived as more personal than political. And it’s a lot harder for ordinary Americans to empathize with a rich ceo than working class ICE agents. A lot of Americans are waking up to the fact that ICE is the enemy but it’s still a minority. The reality is a lot of Americans personally identify with law enforcement and will feel attacked when they are attacked. This creates more reaction, violence and division when we really need people to be united.
Propaganda of the deed tried and failed 100 years ago and I don’t think things are too different today.
