Left Wing University of Pennsylvania president PRAISES that animal who murdered the United Healthcare CEO

If you're looking for ANOTHER reason to get rid of the Department of Education, look no further than the idea of cutting off government subsidized student loans for price gouging NAZI institutions like the the U of Penn.

PA lawmaker demands accountability at UPenn after prof praises Luigi Mangione

EXCLUSIVE: A Pennsylvania congressman fired off a scathing letter overnight to the University of Pennsylvania’s president demanding the firing of a left-wing professor whose social media posts lauded Luigi Mangione, the suspect accused of murdering UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson.

In his letter, GOP Rep. Dan Meuser called for Cinema & Media Studies professor Julia Alekseyeva’s firing and noted the university had just finished weathering another scandal relating to its soft response to antisemitic and pro-Hamas protests.

Alekseyeva made her online accounts private this week after blowback for saying – among other things – that she is proud to be a UPenn Quaker like the accused killer. Thompson's murder sparked a left-wing outcry depicting a simmering anger toward the insurance industry that led to online celebrations in other quarters.


That animal Mangione deserves the DEATH PENALTY.

I would have preferred the CEO had defended himself with deadly force and put down that animal. But the CEO has been murdered. That animal Mangione should NEVER be allowed to breathe free air again.

The only thing that's bazaar about Luigi being dubbed a hero by American standards as far as America's bazaar obsession with 'heroism' is concerned, is that Luigi actually shot the wrong person at United Insurance!

However, Luigi didn't know it and he still doesn't and neither do Luigi's faithful American followers either and quite frankly, neither do you, Reason10!

@swirlie I dont want to get into the right or wrong of killing another person. But as a symbolic gesture Luigi is a hero to many Americans. (and others) He saw what he perceived as a wrong, got mad as hell and did something about it at the risk of personal cost.. Thats the definition. History will decide if he was right or wrong. But Jessie James and Ned Kelly still have their supporters..😷

Then why didn't Luigi kill the insurance salesman who works for the Underwriter of Luigi's insurance policies, instead of the CEO of United Insurance?

@swirlie Because the salesman was only following the orders of his evil nazi master. Luigi clearly identified top management as the problem (rightly or wrongly) and went after the figurehead. Its a little like shooting the President.. Does it really change the way the country is run? But people take notice, as they are.. Now hypothetically a pro choice agitator might go after a Supreme court judge to make their point. (Not that I advocate it). Its symbolic and gets attention. And if it becomes a trend to target those seen as 'the bad guys" then policies can change. And for the record, events like these can be manufactured to lead policies in any direction.😷

That is correct. The CEO of any corporation is only doing the same thing as the lowly insurance salesman... the CEO is only following the orders of the corporation's Board of Directors. The CEO however, does not make investment policy on behalf of the corporation's investors nor does he dictate the financial agenda of that corporation, the Board of Directors do all that!

That is why I said that Luigi shot the wrong guy! The CEO of United Insurance has nothing to do with high cost of insurance premiums levied by his company, because those decisions are always made by the Board of Directors whom the CEO serves at the pleasure of and if he stops serving as their puppet to get THEIR job done because he refuses do as instructed, he get's fired by the Board of Directors!

Regardless of the symbolism extracted from this unfortunate assassination on the CEO and regardless of Luigi incorrectly identifying the CEO as being in charge of the corporation, Luigi got it wrong. That is because Luigi does not know anything about corporate management nor does he know who gives the orders at United Insurance nor at any corporation for that matter.

Shooting the CEO therefore, has no more relevance in making Luigi's ultimate point than shooting his own insurance salesman who wears the cheap suit.

Luigi shot the wrong guy because he didn't take the time to educate himself on who's who in a corporation like United Insurance.

To drive home his point, Luigi should have gone after the Board of Directors because THEY are in charge, not the CEO!

The CEO in any corporation is nothing more than a puppet who serves at the pleasure of the Board of Directors at all times and shooting the CEO therefore, is hardly symbolic if the guy who gets shot is only an employee of the company!

@swirlie I agree with your words. The problem is with modern management that responsibility is now so diluted that no one can be held responsible.. You dont really believe that Trump is going to be responsible for anything that happens to Americans in the coming term. But hes going to make a great patsy when the time comes to remove him and suspend freedoms "temporarily" for the good of all Americans..😷

@swirlie You know as well as I, that Covid was a gift to the left.
DogMan · 61-69, M
@whowasthatmaskedman Yeah, except the China flu came from the gain of function lab.

Only the naive believe it came from the wet market, which was within walking distance
of the Wuhan Lab, how convenient is that?

Covid was a gift to the left? Are you saying that the Republicans gave the Democrats the gift of Covid, like the kiss of death or something...?

What's the difference between the Spanish flu and the China flu when Trump talks about Covid?
DogMan · 61-69, M
@swirlie No...it wasn't Republicans. 🙄

@swirlie I don't know, why don't you tell us, oh wise one.

@DogMan Extremely convenient for conspiracy theorists. I wonder whose fault the next US pandemics of Polio, Diptheria and smallpox will be that only break out in America. I mean it cant be the cancelled vaccination programs, compliments of Trump. It has to be someone elses fault. The sad fact is that the Covid pandemic was global.. And the fact thay America had a mortality rate up to ten times that of other developed countries was due to the Trump administration not pushing masked and lockdowns and encouraging everyone to stay open and go out. I do hope none of your family died because of him..😷

Well, both the Spanish flu and the China flu have one thing in common as far as Trump was concerned.... they were both one in the same, meaning they were both nothing more than the common flu, which is why Trump never actually acted to protect Americans from Covid when he was quickly proven wrong as American bodies started piling up like cordwood behind funeral homes across the USA in 2020.

And secondly, the Spanish flu never actually existed in reality!

What existed however, was a viral pandemic that spread throughout Europe during the time of the First World War.

The reason it was called the Spanish flu is because the country of Spain was the only country in Europe that refused to participate in WWI and calling the pandemic the "Spanish flu" was the world's way of belittling Spain for being the only country in the world to sit on the sidelines and do nothing, pretty much like the USA sat on the sidelines and did nothing during the first two years of WWII.
