I think the health insurance companies are actually taken by surprise by the amount of people who sincerely wish them death. Maybe we will see some almost-meaningful change soon?

I'm happy that there was a change for these folks. There is not doubt about that. As someone that just sort of lived without insurance for a big portion of my life, and I still don't have a doctor/gp, and have had problems with doctors and specialists cancelling on me after ER visits I am really confused what to think.

I've got to rethink all of this violence as an option to stop the rich from playing fuck fuck. it still feels gross that CEO had to be murdered to create change. But I am happy if this post is working with facts of people getting access to medicine and healthier life experiences.

Was there ever a big societal change for the better without blood?

You know, kinda like our genetic cousins murdering the greedy guy who hogs all the bananas.

The collapse of the German Democratic Republic was peaceful.

It also did not happen in a vacuum, and the collapse of the Eastern bloc was not really peaceful.

Also, in my anecdotal experience, the harder break a country did from that system, the better they are doing now.
