        No, I actually agree with it in general. It’s that there is so much more going on and comments like that encourage people to gloss over details or skip the article entirely.

        I’m as upset as anyone about our late stage capitalism but damn, I’d hoped it’d be longer before the Lemmy was overrun with cynics trying to sum everything up into a neat little package.

      What tone should I have used other than the deceased’s own?

      “You are only using and exploiting us to line your pocket with the common citizen’s money for overcharged healthcare. You don’t care about anyone because you have a narcissistic personality.”

        OP edited post with letter terrible article was lacking and tonal change, but hey keep pitchforking

        Perhaps one that isnt so dismissive of the entire situation. Or at least doesn’t package it in such a way as to make it easy to sweep under the rug.

        You may not see it that way but many will, never reading this far. Be an ally, not a hindrance.
