Honestly, I’m not mad, its just funny how state/corporate sponsored violence is all okay but a pleb making a joke (its not even a real threat c’mon) is not okay.

    Wasn’t the entire point of moving to the Fediverse that we can easily switch instances if one goes bad?

            For some reason I thought you could migrate your profile between instances. Oh well. Fuck world. I just kinda got plopped here because I use Sync mainly - ready to move now though.

              There’s a tool somewhere that lets you download your subscriptions then apply them to the new account, but no migration.

      The large user base, and a couple of communities who don’t care about current events. But it’s not an admin thing anyway so - ? Does it really matter what instance it’s on?

      I dont’ know what community that was in, but if it was one of the usual suspects, I’d say move to a different community. Not sure what .world has to do with it since it wasn’t an admin thing, just some mod being mod. !Politics, I assume?

    I got banned from world for similar. Also got banned for stating a fact: democrat joe Lieberman single-handedly killed the single payer option during the passage of obamacare/aca.

    The libs can’t cope.

    Edit for the libs:

    A senator from Connecticut, the insurance capital of the world, became the industry’s go-to guy. Insurers had spent years investing in Sen. Joe Lieberman, a former Democrat-turned-Independent. During the reform debate, the watchdog group Public Campaign Action Fund, (now called EveryVoice), called Lieberman an “insurance puppet,”noting that insurers had contributed nearly half a million dollars to his campaigns over the years.

    The Democrats needed Lieberman’s vote to get reform passed, and insurers knew it. Shortly before the Senate was set to vote on the bill, Lieberman said he would vote for the bill only if the public option was stripped out.

    Cope and seethe libs. Your electoralism and ability to be easily fooled by the DNC’s lies but but republicans! have led us to this mess. And yes, it goes without saying the republicans are no better. But who needs enemies when one has backstabbing democrats for friends? But if we vote harder we’ll have the votes! no, you fucking won’t. Another fucking patsy will make sure to torpedo any kind of progressive legislation, anything to the left of neoliberalism. See Manchin, Sinema, and the fucking senate parliamentarian for examples.

      Neo lib acolytes hate this fact lol

      ACA is how we ended up here… private health insurance it not the solution. Full stop.

      I see the right is trying to blame doctors and left wants to water down call for single payer/medicare for all.

      Socials are starting to get suppressed too. Go to press on.

      .world news modding is fucking pathetic… imagine fucking the working class this hard. disgusting.

        They really do. Dude was senator of CT and bought and paid for by the insurance companies, many of whom have headquarters there (at least at the time).

        Lemmy.world mods are a bunch of fucking libs. Say anything truly leftist and you’ll get a ban.

      But insurance is supposed to payout when an insured person needs it. The only claims they should deny are fraudulent claims. There is an agreement, so neglecting the agreement is still liability.

      Like a home care worker being employed and assigned to an elderly person, then decide to go on an hour phone call and not making sure the elderly person doesn’t like fall down or anything, then they finish their hour-long phone call and find that the person they were supposed to be taking care of have fallen down the stairs. Like the home care worker didn’t cause them to die, but its practically the same. There’s probably lawsuits and probably also criminal charges.

      But in the CEO situation, the ananlogy would be more like the elderly person ask you to help them walk, and you just refuse to do your job, then they fall down the stairs and you don’t even call an ambulance while watching them die. That’s essentially what the healthcare executives are doing. They are neglecing to provide the service they agreed to while taking premiums. That should be criminal.

        yeah, i’m not saying it’s not criminal and bad behavior, but it’s not violence. (it was called violence in the OP)

          Denying healthcare is violence. Just because there’s layers of paper pushers in between the patient and the corporation denying care doesn’t change things.

          Engels said it best:

          When one individual inflicts bodily injury upon another such that death results, we call the deed manslaughter; when the assailant knew in advance that the injury would be fatal, we call his deed murder. But when society places hundreds of proletarians in such a position that they inevitably meet a too early and an unnatural death, one which is quite as much a death by violence as that by the sword or bullet; when it deprives thousands of the necessaries of life, places them under conditions in which they cannot live – forces them, through the strong arm of the law, to remain in such conditions until that death ensues which is the inevitable consequence – knows that these thousands of victims must perish, and yet permits these conditions to remain, its deed is murder just as surely as the deed of the single individual; disguised, malicious murder, murder against which none can defend himself, which does not seem what it is, because no man sees the murderer, because the death of the victim seems a natural one, since the offence is more one of omission than of commission. But murder it remains.

          “violence” comes from “violation” which we can agree is the case when unethical insurance providers deny doctor-recommended treatment.

          Perspective can definitely change when one experiences needless suffering or death, or watches a loved one go through that
