Later, she says people are justified in their utter disdain of health insurance CEOs.

People have very justified hatred toward insurance company CEOs because these executives are responsible for an unfathomable amount of death and suffering. As someone against death and suffering, I think it’s good to call out this broken system and the ppl in power who enable it.

It goes beyond wishing death upon others. There are Bluesky users celebrating the murder of Brian Thompson with cartoon stars.

Woke up to see this spammed in my group chats

It didn’t long for posters on X to take notice. It’s no surprise what their first question was.

The short answer: YES!

Lorenz has always been unhinged but corporate employment most likely held the worst of her behavior in check. 

This poster gets it.

In the past, this would have been journalism career suicide, but we live in a world in which legacy media welcomed back both Dan Rather and Jeffrey Toobin. So, anything’s possible.

Health insurance is something most Americans get angry with and complain about. But, that frustration doesn’t rise to a Lorenz-level of craziness.

Bluesky is touted as a ‘safe space.’ But, these posts wishing death upon others are still up as of this writing. Not sure ‘safe space’ is a truthful selling point when fellow users can wish death upon you based on your career field.
