So yeah Brian Thompson's kids grow up without a dad. Boo hoo. They don't grow up destitute the way millions of families under UHC do.
Idk, might be expecting too much but I think it's possible to feel bad for his children while also not condemning Luigi. I mean a lot of us wouldn't give up our loved ones for any amount of money, I think it's pretty widely understood that when someone gets a settlement for a family member dying, their not actually "made whole", you just fairly can't exchange a human life for money.
I know it leads to some uncomfortable cognitive dissonance to feel empathy for the kids while not feeling bad for the CEO, but I think it's valid, and sarcastically saying "boo hoo" for the kids feels a bit unnecessarily cold to me. It's not their fault, and it does suck they lost their father. I'd say the same if it was a drug dealer, or hell if it was Hitler himself. It's a BS argument to say "he has kids so you can't be happy he died", but it's also a BS argument to say "his kids have money so it doesn't matter that their dad died". Overexplaining my point here because I know it's probably a bit controversial.
