Oh! Oh! Do Hitler next! Talk about how he served his country in war, how he was a painter and a successful politician and then leave out the “other details” about him.
Born to humble means. His father, a selfless civil servant. His mother, a simple homemaker. They were probably really proud when he was appointed Verbindungsmann of an Aufklärungskommando of the Reichswehr.
This is gold
Make this picture a post and I’ll upvote it! (I don’t want to steal and post it myself, but might if no one else does)
i already took it from someone elses post
You should update his wiki with this information
Where’s his mugshot for, you know, profiting off the deaths of countless victims?
By the same logic, let me introduce you to the story of a young man rising from a failed Austrian artist to a national hero…
This represents everything that should be right and good in America. Maybe some day. Maybe next life.
tl;dr: The beginnings justify the ends. If you’re a teenager thinking about becoming a murderer or rapist later in life, consider learning the trombone.
I learned the cello what can I do?
Serenade the flames
I don’t know but if you tried to learn to paint you could lead the country instead of a puny company.
Is this a bad time to say that I failed art class in grade school… Because that actually happened
It’s a bizarre thing to detail the man’s entire life EXCEPT the part that was evil as if it somehow is irrelevant.
I didn’t have any sympathy for him until I found out he played basketball and the trombone.
This changes everything.
Decent men don’t leverage suffering for profit.
Mussolini interned at a bakery one summer and attempted to learn the harmonica, you judgemental monsters…
Hitler liked animals and hated smoking. Like mussolini, and this ceo, that doesn’t make them good
And was vegetarian and a talented painter.
But that’s not at all what he’s known for is it?
All those things are moot when you are responsible for the suffering and deaths of others.
Precisely!
What do you expect from a CFO of mergers and acquisitions? They’re more inhuman than healthcare execs, if that’s possible, since their entire job is to buy companies and fire people, thus leaving them completely without insurance.
When it’s your job to profit off of human misery, don’t be surprised when you find out what human misery feels like.
I think if he had any personal friends who thought he was a good person the media would have made time for them to speak up about it. But only other rich executives have.
IMO, a “decent man” would have turned down working in a company that made health into a profit-making machine. He would have at least resigned when AI was pushed forward to deny even more medical claims, but instead gave his blessing. One can be evil and deadly without having to pull a trigger, look at the ton of politicians that do it daily and they get away with it because they look polished.
I would have taken the job and tried to not be the leader in denied claims. Truth be told, I would probably funnel my excess income to single player supporting politicians.
There’s a lot of distance between an executive and those whose lives they impact. It’s probably too easy to forget there are people involved, and just pay attention to the numbers
nah. How exactly can that work with health care? The people are the numbers. They could easily translate a high number of approved claims to a high number of people being helped, but instead, they want a low number of claims being approved.
I disagree with the idea that money corrupts people. I think it’s happening the other way around. The ability to accumulate great quantities of wealth favors people who have no scruples in the first place. It’s why poor people are more charitable. It’s not that they’re closer to needy people. It’s that having a charitable mentality means you will pass on opportunities to get easy wealth if it puts someone else at a disadvantage.
Hitler loved animals.
Your point?
The worst people in the world are still people. Doesn’t mean we have to excuse their evil.
Ah yes, the American dream. Making billions by siphoning the blood-money from the dying you denies Healthcare to.
You could make a similar feel good post about basically any evil person in history. It’s pretty easy when you ignore the evil things they do

So ambitious small town guy with no empathy or ethics moved up the chain until he profited off the pain and suffering of others. I’m sure many of these trash humans trying to praise him have never had to worry about how they were going to stay alive. You notice they are all just like him. Trash.
