Now this is vigilantism I can get behind.
Although it would be funnier if they hadn’t pied themselves and had pied a real CEO.
Purely performative. Got it.
The UK has a long tradition of pieing awful politicians - and guess what? It gets a laugh and memable pictures, but changes nothing.
- Nigel Farage has milkshake thrown at him, protester gets a criminal record. Policies unchanged.
- Tony Blair gets pelted with purple flour. Protester gets a criminal record. Policies unchanged.
- John Prescott gets egged, punches protester in the face. No arrest, policies unchanged, Labor wins election, Prescott survives politically in government.
- Peter Mandleson, government spin docotor, has green custard thrown at him. Policies unchanged.
John Prescott looked like he deserved it xD
UHC CEO gets assassinated. Policies unchanged.
I keep saying this- you cannot assassinate your way into companies putting people over profits. They’re legally required to do the opposite.
UHC rates will continue to rise and they will continue to deny people. CEOs are just as replaceable as every other employee in a corporation.
So you might as well throw pies in their faces and laugh at them because this is not how you solve systemic issues.
And I assume a bunch of you will be pissed off at me for saying so again, but you’ll be in for a rude awakening when your insurance premium goes up and Trump decides to bring back denying for pre-existing conditions.
Blue shield policy on anesthesia was changed the day after the assassination.
Policies have been changed and no pie was involved
You have no idea whether or not it was the assassination that changed that policy and I continue to maintain that you cannot solve a systemic problem with vigilantism.
How many CEO assassinations do you think it will take for the fully Republican-controlled legislative, executive and judicial branch to socialize the U.S. for-profit medical industry? You don’t need to give me an exact number, just an estimate.
And yet you cannot disprove a direct correlation between the two events, so, until we won’t have a bigger dataset to analyse, both our opinions are equally valid; even if a policy change in the time span of a day and against the economic interests of this institution would skewer the hypothesis towards my interpretation rather than yours, but I want to give you the benefit of the doubt. Hopefully we’ll have this increased dataset available in a short time ;)
To answer your question: more or less all of them. Or at least a great majority (70-80% at least), all of the people who you cited in your list are out for blood against the lower classes so I don’t see anything wrong in defending ourselves from these beasts.
They’ll have to be successful 100% of the times to avoid being killed, we will need just one successful try to reach our goal
Are you expecting some local neceomancer to raise Ken Lay just for a practical joke? Because I was…
Oh you wouldn’t need to raise him from the dead. Just digging him up would be fine.
I bet he was pissed but when he got home he felt quite lucky that was all it was.
This is literally all publicity stunts.
satirical project on the relaunch of the energy company Enron
Now do trump.
Ideally with something denser and faster than a pie.
For sure. I’d settle for the pie though since he’s apparently so afraid of it.
I thought presidents get shoes
Everything about this is lame.
Aw, lame. Thought it said “Pipe” and thought: yo?!
Oh My God, Oh my fuckin Gawd. 😂🤣🤣😂
Almost everyone loves pie!

Enron? Makes me think of Elían, or Furby. Dancing baby.
