'Poetic Justice': Why some Americans are celebrating UnitedHealthcare CEO’s murder

IndiaTimes Thursday, 5 December 2024 ()
The shocking murder of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson has sparked polarised reactions, highlighting the deep frustration many Americans feel toward the US healthcare system. Thompson’s leadership symbolised a profit-driven industry criticised for denying care and financial exploitation. Social media flooded with dark humour and anger, with some viewing his death as karmic justice. Journalist Taylor Lorenz's meme further fuelled controversy, reflecting the public’s disdain for systemic inequities. While critics warn against normalising violence, the incident underscores a growing demand for universal healthcare and reform. Thompson’s death serves as a grim symbol of a healthcare system many believe is irreparably broken.
