“When other’s human lives are deemed worthless, it is not surprising to have others view your life of no value as well,” wrote one medical doctor, whose identity the Daily Beast confirmed.

Summary

Reddit’s r/medicine moderators deleted a thread where doctors and users harshly criticized murdered UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson.

Comments, including satirical rejections of insurance claims for gunshot wounds, targeted UHC’s reputation for denying care to boost profits.

Despite the removal, similar discussions continue, with medical professionals condemning UHC’s business practices under Thompson’s leadership, which a Senate report recently criticized for denying post-acute care.

Thompson, shot in what appears to be a targeted attack, led a company notorious for its high claim denial rates, fueling ongoing debates about corporate ethics in healthcare.

    Idk, it’s not like his kids had a choice where they were born (assuming they’re young, I have no idea)

      And I didn’t choose to be born to a disabled father and left with a lifetime of trauma due to the health insurance companies. Fuck his family. Zero sympathy. I hope his kids and wife suffer the same way my mother and I have. They won’t. We lost the house. They’ve got millions. FUCK THEM.
