- losing track of a perp in fucking Manhattan
- the other pic of the perp (with mask up) looks totally different, diff eyebrows, diff backpack, has coat hoodie up instead of sweater hoodie
- dude was just casually outside of McDs in broad daylight while on the run (not innawoods? not moving in the evening?)
- shooter is rich and his family owns a line of retirement homes
- Brian Thompson is a new start, was never CEO of anything before 2021 (father was a grain elevator worker)
- Brian Thompson is also excluded from the past Wikipedia pages of UnitedHealthCare, (apparently not important enough to mention?)
- The only consistent CEO on said pages is Andrew Witty (still CEO now, and was CEO from 2021 along with Brian)
- Andrew Witty also served as CEO of GlaxoSmithKline from 2008-2017, showing a decade of full experience
- Witty was management trainee when he was 19yo, was appointed president of GSK europe in 2003 (at 39 yo), and advised Prime Minister David Cameron 2010-2015. A very experienced fellow!
- UHC’s profits were 17B in 2021 and 21B in 2022. Brian Thompson was getting a salary of only 10M per year from 2021-24. This seems like a pretty low profit:CEO wage ratio, but more analysis is necessary
- there was some embezzlement thing where Brian defrauded 17M, Steven Hemsley (executive chariman) defrauded 102M, and Witty defrauded a few million. Brian was set to testify soon. Hemsley took home almost all of the money.
- how did the shooter even know where to find Brian?
No wonder Americans are conspiracy theorists, absolutely nothing can happen in that country without a mass of dodgy secretive weird shit just below the surface. Actually it often makes me less inclined to believe conspiracy theories because America is just like that, if you dig below you will inevitably find evil and corruption, doesn’t necessarily mean it’s connected in any grand plans
if my mom dies of coverage denial from an insurance company, do I play minecraft with the networth $50M petit-CEO or wait 2 hours for the meeting to be over and roblox the networth $800M executive chairman?
Learning about Bohemian Grove broke my brain.
“What, you think all the important people in the country meet up in some secluded spot to do shady shit and plan more shady shit?”
“Yeah, they literally do that. Once a year. They actually unironically meet up and do weird satanic stuff for several days in a secluded spot that allows no trespassers. They physically convene and conspire once a year and the event they do it is also an event with a bunch of odd rituals tied to it.”I know all lodges do weird pagan stuff and it’s all just for fun. I don’t freak out about that stuff really, it’s just that it’s so on the nose. They do actually do the thing. I’m convinced Alex Jones is part of a psyop that has been going on for decades, meant to make actual conspiracy theories sound insane. “Oh you think JFK didn’t get shot by Oswald? What’s next, the moon landing is fake? The earth is flat?”
Isn’t that mostly a Alex Jones bit? Specifically the satanic part. Worshipping mohloc or whatever. He coined that back in the 2000s. The do meet there, but its all theater kid shit. These people meet everywhere. They don’t need to go to the Grove to do it.
He got it by stealing Bill Coopers style and Bill Cooper got it by being weird about weird things like Bohemian Grove. This is sorta what I talk about with the “psyop” thing.
It is just theater kid things, but it’s still wild to me that they actually do it. The fact that they actually do do weird pagan rituals and it’s not just made up is wild to me. Real “are we the baddies” hours.
This article is interestingAlso bill Cooper died in a shootout with the cops in November of 2001
Yeah the fact that elite underground pedo churches might exist is disconcerting. I guess the question is are they sitting around planning 911 or are they just like ‘next week would be a great time to sell those stocks’. Who knows…
I imagine it’s a bit of both. Stocks go up when things go down. I don’t know about 9/11, but certainly things like “the middle east” or the “china problem” or however they’ll phrase it, will be discussed.
Here’s an article that’ allegedly from a journalist who infiltrated it

altoona cops following up on a boomer’s report that a guy’s eyebrows look like murderman’s eyebrows makes no sense at all
I just saw a side by side eye brow pic
I don’t have a unibrow. But can that really fill in that much in 5 days? Like regular gape to maybe a 1/2 inch apart on 5 days?

no and even if it did, a razor blade is 2 cents
Don’t underestimate Italians
if so it means he wanted to be caught
IRLmakes me wonder how much police time was spent responding to boomers doing this type of shit.
yeah it could well be that there were 10,000 boomer snitch reports of a guy with the right eyebrows and this is the only one that was followed up
i think you’re conflating united healthcare and united health group. witty is the ceo of united health group, which owns united healthcare. witty was thompson’s boss throughout.
It also begs the question of why Brian specifically? Why not Witty too? Why not wait till the meeting was over and roblox a whole fucking cabal of CEOs?
uhhh that’d be way too risky, dude
if that’s too risky, why did he pull his mask down to flirt with a woman mid-crime lol
why did he pull his mask down to flirt with a woman mid-crime lol
he’s Italian
in that case why not wait to merk 10 other healthcare executives as they exit the building
I don’t think Italians are still confined to their primitive 2000 year old numeral system
Because they wouldn’t be on foot, presumably.
Because they would probably have some sort of security. I do find it weird that the CEO of a healthcare company who got deaththreats on the reg didn’t have a bodyguard.
Might it be the case that the massively positive social media reception made him decide to take credit for it and try his luck with convincing one juror out of twelve to nullify?
edit: oops i replied to the wrong comment
He pulled down his mask to show the hostel employee his face when he first checked in. It was days before the shooting.
What throws me is the eyebrows look totally different. And like his facial structure looks similar but not the same? But who knows maybe they’re just weird camera angles. I’m also kind of stupid, so who knows.
What throws me is that he managed to successfully get away, but then decided not to change clothes or ditch the evidence. The authorities clearly didn’t know who he was, he should’ve been easily able to disappear back into society, but instead he decides to wander around in public dressed as the assassin. Maybe he wanted to get caught, but then why run in the first place? Alternatively, the feds have some secret tech for identifying people and the McDonalds snitch thing is just a cover?

I don’t find this part to be much of a mystery at all. What is he going to do, go back to his 9 to 5 and live like nothing has happened, having murdered some asshole in cold blood, but that having changed literally nothing in the world? Like that’s not something a normal person wants to do. Fairly high likelihood he just planned things out without much of a hope of it ever actually going as well as it did, and when it went better than he expected he just didn’t have much more of a plan.

You can’t change the world, but you can make a scratch and seems like his went pretty deep. Why not go back to your old life, let the heat die down and then do it again.

It does remind me of the Columbine shooting a bit, where all the killing happened in a 16 minute window, and they proceeded to wander around for the next 40 minutes before killing themselves.
Maybe he wanted to get caught, but then why run in the first place?
Really seems like the only explanation
why is there no calipers emoji smdh
perfect thank you
It just doesn’t do it for me
it has been submitted a bunch of times, but so far has not made it
here’s one of them that you can bookmark and use
Many are asking this
We need to see Luigi smile and flirt a bit before we can really know anything for sure
Sorry but this is hard cope. In 90% of his pics his brows are plucked. Y’all are grasping to the one where they aren’t.
Not saying its him, but this is not the evidence you think it is.
Something that caught my attention is that his nose, in both cases, are perfectly between his eyebrows. That’s a typical rule for anatomy, and I don’t think plucking would help.
Or maybe I am coping 🥹
This was taken yesterday. Are you saying his monobrow grew back over 4 days?
Was it? It looks more like a set up shot for social media to me.
This was taken yesterday tho and looks a lot more like the photos from last week:
Yeah, you’re right. Looks like him.
UHC’s profits were 17B in 2021 and 21B in 2022. Brian Thompson was getting a salary of only 10M per year from 2021-24. This seems like a pretty low profit:CEO wage ratio, but more analysis is necessary
I wont bother checking right now but you can look at his SEC fillings for what he was doing with his shares if anything. Executives are mostly paid in shares and bonuses not just a salary. In fact this is exactly the point why sometimes social and economic inequality measurements can skew towards liberal apologia since salary very obviously doesn’t equal wealth so capitalist societies can have lower wage inequality but higher wealth inequality where most of the money is made through financial instruments not wages.
Brian Thompson is a new start, was never CEO of anything before 2021 (father was a grain elevator worker)
I thought he was already CEO of UHC when he got that drunk driving conviction in 2019
also, do you not consider failing to ditch or destroy the gun and IDs fishy?
Brian became CEO in 2021, along with Witty.
Yes I consider all of that fishy, the shooter acted like he wanted to be caught (and yet the NYPD floundered, either through ineptness or something shady)
failing to ditch or destroy the gun
The gun he was arrested with wasn’t the one he used
Is that confirmed? Source please!
All of you are wrong!
Soon, this will be revealed as the latest and boldest Nathan Fielder project to date and it will turn out to be a huge prank on the nation. A grand social experiment, if you will!
Brian Thompson will emerge alive and tell us that it was all SQUIBS. Luigi was an actor along with everyone else hired to play a role. The police department was involved in the prank.
Nothing ever happens in America. People will watch the aired TV special and giggle at how they had participated in the spectacle. Then, everything will be back to normal.
That’s it. That’s my grand conspiracy theory.
Luigi was an actor along
He was a
, so possibly even a Crysis actor
I fully accept the reality that truth is often stranger than fiction and a lot of these incongruities might just be the chaos and incoherence of the real world where not everything is so cleanly defined or rationally thought out.
But seriously…I want to know how we got to here and what the mindset was. Why didn’t he dispose of the gun? Why the “manifesto” that based on details that are coming out basically reads like a handwritten confession? According to CNN he was found with 8k in cash on him and Mangione made the claim, in court, that it was planted. Now of course he could totally be lying but still…what the fuck? The best explanation I have, right now, is that he was wavering between wanting to ride off into the sunset or step up and fully martyr himself…but all of it is so inconsistent. I don’t know what to make of it.
there was some embezzlement thing where Brian defrauded 17M, Steven Hemsley (executive chariman) defrauded 102M, and Witty defrauded a few million. Brian was set to testify soon. Hemsley took home almost all of the money.
Oh fuck this was a shadowrun
unlikely, everything went way too smoothly.
if this was a shadowrun there would’ve been a shootout and someone slingshotting a car to the penthouse level
its a shadowrun plot hook

I’ve been enjoying concocting farcical conspiracy scenarios in my mind since Luigi was collared. It’s not so hard to imagine that he could’ve fallen down the gladio well. Easy to set him up as a patsy. But that also seems like an enormously risky move that, if you assume the powers that be don’t know who the real shooter is, leaves them open to embarrassment. And if they do know who the real shooter is why bother creating a fake one? Seems like a lot of work, that could still backfire on them, when it all would’ve been forgotten about in a few weeks anyway. And the official line is believable. Promising kid from a rich family runs afoul of the health insurance industry, realizes his life will never be the same again, and decides to kill a guy for it. Escapes one of the most surveilled cities in the world as a result of police incompetence and some good planning on his part. Gets caught because a cop lives in the mind of every American over the age of 45.
Anyway, I assume that Luigi is the guy, partly out of “nothing ever happens” brain and partly out of fear that a sophisticated gladio network could really exist, has existed other places in ways that are provable, but I want to believe it’s all paranoid delusion, that the State couldn’t really be that powerful, because that’s too frightening to contemplate. There’s that line you see skeptics trot out all the time with regard to conspiracy adjacent stuff, that conspiracy theorists are just looking to believe in something bigger than themselves that has control, because the random and chaotic nature of life can be too hard to take. I hope that’s true of all the gladio shit.
This insider trading case does give me pause, though. Suddenly, with that much money on the line, shit that I would normally think is impossible doesn’t sound that farfetched.
Everyone at that level is insider trading, it’s less surprising than finding out he had an affair.
