There’s a lot of did ways the situation could develop positively that doesn’t involve more assassinations. Most likely, the industry pushes for legislation that disallows some of the scumier practices while allowing the bleed to continue.
Captured oligarch media keeps trying horribly to spin this. Eventually, shooter gets caught. Everyone who gets their info solely from mainstream sources will think the shooter a villain. Somehow they find a jury of stooges. Dude gets slapped with the hardest sentencing imaginable but not put to death. The orphan crushing machine pitters on.
I mean either way I am inspired as fucc from this act. People really do hold the power. No amount of money or lobbying in the world will unshoot Brian Thompson.
Well aside from what I already mentioned, it’s possible for the manufacturing of consent against socialized medicine to be halted out of fear leading to M4A finally being adopted. It’s possible that this will lead to non-violent protests that agitate for change. Certain politicians might be able to leverage this in the near future to get a bill passed. It could happen that it’ll lead to a sudden increase in community aid and health facilities accommodating such.
I’m not saying what is and isn’t likely to happen, all I’m saying is that we don’t know. Anyone who thinks they know what will happen is an idiot or a liar, possibly both.
