The woman had been denied medical coverage from BlueCross BlueShield, according to an affidavit.

Your affiant asked Boston if she used the phrase “Delay, Deny, Depose. You people are next.” during her call earlier today with BlueCross BlueShield to which she acknowledged she said it and apologized. Boston stated she used those words because it’s what is in the news right now. Boston advised she learned of the phrase because of the current events regarding the UnitedHeathcare homicide. Boston stated she did not own any firearms, and she was not a danger to anyone. Boston further stated the healthcare companies played games and deserved karma from the world because they are evil.

    I’m going to assume you mean by voting. Please be careful about what you say, I don’t like removing comments.

      An action I’m in favor of is canceling policies. “Since your company is in such a habit of denying customers the service they have paid for, I’m no longer paying for your service.” Get a few million of us to do that and maybe something will get done. Money talks louder than ballots especially when the ballot box is just piped to /dev/null the way it is for so many Americans.

      Voting, yes. And also communicating regularly with our representatives. They can’t possible get things right without input from their constituents.

      I am new on this instance, came from .world, and it’s nice to see a mod give someone a chance rather than just swinging the ban hammer.

        Thanks, but I will temp ban easily if I’m pretty sure they’re a troll. Every mod is different too, just like the place that shall not be named. I love this instance though.

          Would discussion of the break down of the efficacy of civil venues for change, leading to this kind of violence, as an outcome of their own actions, be acceptable?

            Talking about what lead to “this kind of violence” and calling for it are 2 very different things. You all are extremely smart, you can figure it out.

                TBH, it kind of sucks being a mod. I don’t have time to mod that often and I rely a lot on reports. I try to give the other mods the benefit of the doubt that they didn’t have time to really check in most cases. There are definitely some exceptions to that though. I also have a lot of experience with trolls from the r/ place so it doesn’t take much for me to see genuine comments most of the time. Of course, I’m still sometimes wrong and try to apologize if I can.

                  Cool, I know being a mod sucks, used to do it when I was younger. Just, have had my comments that corpos, having spent decades, and billions, destroying any civil means of change, will mean they will suffer violence for it, get me banned on an instance.

                    World is a weird place. An admin was shadow banning my comments which is why I’m here. They seemed to have stopped that though, so it might have been a rogue admin. I really like this instance and the admins are great.
