Someone else already mentioned it, but we celebrated people like Jesse James and Billy the Kid.

Also, Bonnie and Clyde.

This is not new.

Posting anything from Libs of TikTok destroys this argument


You can ignore her comments and focus on the content or you can cry about it. Your choice.

Well this has become interesting the hard left is celebrating just based on this being a ceo so by default he is evil in their mind, the others celebrating are doing so because they hate insurance, then you have those that don’t care either way and those that are upset that people are celebrating. Of course he was actually killed because he was going to testify to congress making insider trades. So the DNC elites had him clipped and the legacy media is carrying their water getting everyone to debate how evil insurance is.

It’s kinda like the bank robbers being turned in to folk heroes in the 30s. They were cold blooded killers but they were robbing banks that foreclosed on a large population of the US.



Yeah. It's like some people don't understand how and why a folk hero is made.

500 years ago they might have been saying, "I don't see why this Robin Hood fellow is so popular. It is the King's god-given right to tax us into oblivion and the Tax Collectors are only obeying their lawful orders. It's dangerous to be treating this rapscallion as some sort of hero."

It goes back WAAAAAY before that. Lauding the outlaw fighting agaisnt the system is a tale as old as time



The key is to stop thinking about the reality and the facts of the situation and focus on the story and myth around it. True or not.

That's why it has appeal

Was this ever confirmed? Saw that some other dude (not the CEO guy) with the same name was being charged.
