We spoke to Bernie Sanders about alleged health insurance CEO shooter Luigi Mangione, the crisis of for-profit health care in America, why only a mass movement can win Medicare for All, and how to fight the growing share of working-class votes for the Right.

"Health CEOs" are fair enough, but libs have some weird Voldemort hangup calling out the shareholders.

Even the peasant bean counters and pencil pushers of the health insurance industry are a parasitic leech on society and need to be reassigned to socially useful work

That's fair enough, but Americans are bringing in this cancerous "upper and lower, not left or right" rhetoric that I am convinced is a psyop to take the class consciousness and cool with meagre reformism. Not even like the Bismark health reforms, but "yay, we don't have to pay for anaesthetic while covered, terrorism rules" reformism.

Tell me what I am saying it is just clinical depression. But the left is in no way ready for this and this whole thing is going to be co-opted by the far right.
