Summary
Internet sleuths, who often assist in high-profile investigations, are notably silent on the murder of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson.
Popular figures like TizzyEnt and Savannah Sparks cited disinterest, with some expressing disdain for the U.S. healthcare system, which has faced heightened criticism amid record-low public satisfaction.
Many online users appear apathetic, failing to empathize with the wealthy victim.
The lack of engagement contrasts with past cases like Gabby Petito’s, where online communities played key roles. Meanwhile, the NYPD continues its investigation, releasing surveillance footage and offering a $10,000 reward for tips.

Failing to empathize with the wealthy victim
Lmao
Ironically, he wasn’t even the most paid among other healthcare CEOs.
I don’t feel sorry for him, as making money on misfortune of others is very low.
Though there are even worse people, and not necessarily in insurance industry.
The serial impregnator of everything that moves now is interested to influence our government to cut “unnecessary” spending, which likely will hurt much more people.
Still, it’s the message that matters.
It was the standard “terrible tragedy” blah blah “thoughts and prayers”.
The actual message we saw was from Trump Jr “Internet do your thing, let’s find this guy”.
The new president elect so far nominated 14 billionaires in his cabinet (do you think they are there to improve our lives?) yet OP tries to imply that Democrats are pro oligarchs, as we are about to have oligarchs ruling is from the “anti-establishment” president.
Want to fight injustice, maybe start with those.
I would say “failing to empathize” is not correct. Failing implies trying. Calling him a victim seems disengenuous as well. Even if the shooter is a contract killer, there’s no way he has a higher KDR than the parasite he capped.
I’m might be disinclined to empathize.
Brian Thompson was a mass murderer. It’s not hard to understand why people wouldn’t want to help, here.
Yup and I wish more people would connect the dots on how much pain, suffering, and mass murder every top American company commits on a daily basis.
Indirect violence is the number one problem in capitalism. Remember all the train derailments or Boeing planes dropping out of the sky? Those failures were by design to increase profits. If our politicians and “justice system” isn’t going to hold the people who make decisions and those decisions harm people, accountable. Vigilante justice is going to be on the rise.
Mark my word. Every Fortune 500 company leadership needs to be put on notice. America has given up on political means to make meaningful positive change. And with Trump, there is no safety net (what little there was remaining) and the wealthy are going to be killed at an alarming rate. We’re near rock bottom and Trump and conservatives is scrabbling to cash out as fast as possible.
We all smell a revolution.
May there be many copycats.
I keep seeing all these headlines about “top internet sleuths” and I feel like I would have written that sarcastically but I’m starting to become concerned that these " journalists" are serious about the phrase.
I will say I do not condone what the shooter did and hope we find him. Either in 50 years with a deathbed confession or sooner in a case with jury nullification
I condone it
Isn’t there like a statute limitation?
there is no statute of limitations for murder
I’ll do it for 10 million using Chat gpt!.. The first clue is free!
“Sure! I’ll help you find your hero! Have you looked behind the couch?”
it only takes one to fuck it all up.
No, I won’t.
