It’s the chicken and the egg.
He was later rejected by his family and ended up homeless and struggling.

The irony here is that Che Guavara was a medical doctor AND in charge of torture… So that’s kinda similar to United Healthcare.
9·2 days agoPeople keep saying the family is so wealthy, but if that’s true; even they couldn’t keep up with the medical bills.
Yep, it should always be a surprise attack. Your employer is NEVER your friend. You will always have competing interests.
Their aim is to exploit you, your aim is to be well paid for doing very little (eg. The fabled “cushy job” scenario).
There’s no room for a friendship, it’s adversarial. You’re cordial to get along until there’s a viable move to make.
Turns out things won’t go well for the albatross (it will get shot). The saying, “to wear an albatross around one’s neck” is an indication of having been cursed. It comes from a 227 year old poem. From Wikipedia:
In the poem The Rime of the Ancient Mariner, an albatross follows a ship setting out to sea, which is considered a sign of good luck. However, the titular mariner shoots the albatross with a crossbow, an act that will curse the ship and cause it to suffer terrible mishaps. Unable to speak due to lack of water, the ship’s crew let the mariner know through their glances that they blame him for their plight and they tie the bird around his neck as a sign of his guilt. From this arose the image of an albatross around the neck as metaphor for a burden that is difficult to escape.
17·3 days agoThe Lemmy just censor your comment about needing more shootings like the one Luigi Mangione is accused of.
I don’t know things rightly caught uo to the last guy Russia had like that; Russell Bentley.
I’ve had multiple comments deleted on Lemmy about the UHC shooting.
I just wish class solidarity was as popular at the bottom end of town.

Good boi
We need to normalize selfcare!
3·5 days agoApparently it was his IQ test score when in military school. I don’t put a lot of stock in IQ testsz but still a fun thing to mock him on.
I think you’re correct, and the “shipyard” here is what’s known as “group therapy”. Group therapy is depicted in fight club, and it was often declared by the person running it when they had “a new person arrive to the group”, or when someone was “leaving the group”, making it seem like a notable event (much like a ship’s maiden voyage is a notable event).
It’s a reference to the semi-notorious “Cow Tools” Farside comic. Which confused lots of people because one of the ‘Cow Tools’ looked like a saw.
The joke that many people had trouble with the simplicity of was “if cows made tools, they wouldn’t be very good. They’d be crude/ineffective”.
It was too little for many people to appreciate. The tools are a meme for some fans.
They know he’s part of the family, the scammy billionaire class. This is openly mafia shit, where as previously it was behind closed doors.
