      Which means he should’ve had more empathy for the families he’s denied medical care for, right?

      I saw someone post a pic of his family trying to get people to empathize with him, and to be honest it just makes me think even less of him.

      I don’t really know how someone can love their kids, but deny healthcare to other children. He’d be less of a monster if he was just completely devoid of humanity all the time instead of when he’s just clocked in for work.

        I don’t really know how someone can love their kids, but

        Did he? Just because he had a family doesn’t mean he gave a shit about them…

          I mean, fair enough. Kinda hard for me to remember people can actively feel contempt or just complete disinterest for any kid, let alone their own.

        This is the thing, exactly! It’s called The Banality of Evil. When Adolf Eichmann was being tried in Nuremberg for war crimes he committed in Auschwitz, it was widely remarked on about his lack of ‘evilness’. The dude seemed like a mild mannered accountant, and by all means was, but he helped enact one of the most heinous and calculated acts of genocide in all of history.

        Monsters are easy to point at and shudder, monstrous humanity is far harder to accept let alone vilify. This piece of shit CEO is firmly in the Eichmann camp of evil and we should fucking celebrate he’s dead.

      Did his wife and children know what he did for a living?

      If anyone doesn’t know what the point of my question is, I can only direct them to go watch The Zone of Interest (2023).

      I’m a husband and father. I wouldn’t disappoint them by killing thousands of people and getting shot for it. It’s a reason to not do evil things.

      The wife chose marrying a psychopath. She’s no better. The kids will be somewhat better off being raised by only one piece of shit instead of two.
