Welcome

We're not The Onion! Not affiliated with them in any way! Not operated by them in any way! All the news here is real!

The Rules

Posts must be:

  1. Links to news stories from...
  2. ...credible sources, with...
  3. ...their original headlines, that...
  4. ...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”

Please also avoid duplicates.

Comments and post content must abide by the server rules for Lemmy.world and generally abstain from trollish, bigoted, ableist, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.

This would be enough to "radicalize me", but I don't think it's all that radical to be against a system that treats people this way.

It isn't. It's inhumane the way these companies are behaving. They're a threat to society and this is humans' instinctual response to eliminating threats.

We are giving thousands of dollars of our money to a company to insure that our life and health will be taken care of, it should NOT be up to these companies what methods of remedies that a person needs to be kept alive and healthy are "deemed necessary"

Furthermore; these companies CEO should NEVER be paid more than an average citizen... full stop. There's no reason an insurance company employee owns a yacht.

average citizen

Median citizen. The average is raised significantly by a few rich folks.

That's the point, we're not living a neutral situation, we're under attack by bad people doing disgusting jobs
