Summary

Internet sleuths, who often assist in high-profile investigations, are notably silent on the murder of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson.

Popular figures like TizzyEnt and Savannah Sparks cited disinterest, with some expressing disdain for the U.S. healthcare system, which has faced heightened criticism amid record-low public satisfaction.

Many online users appear apathetic, failing to empathize with the wealthy victim.

The lack of engagement contrasts with past cases like Gabby Petito’s, where online communities played key roles. Meanwhile, the NYPD continues its investigation, releasing surveillance footage and offering a $10,000 reward for tips.

    I don’t know why this is news.

    Most of the people I know that are analytical enough to sleuth out this kind of thing are also socially aware enough to support universal healthcare.

    The individual in question profited off the literal suffering of others by endorsing, creating, or otherwise allowing his company to deny claims for any, and every reason they could. It doesn’t matter if he personally denied coverage to anyone; he was responsible for everything the company he was the executive officer of, did.

    To that end, he’s profited from the suffering of those who were denied help.

    He’s a piece of shit and the world has been made better because he is no longer a part of it.
