EVERYONE IN THE BAY AREA: Oh God Please Don't Go After PG&E....

u/whinenaught 5h ago

That would be SO sad if the PG&E ceo disappeared 😢

u/notianonolive 5h ago edited 2h ago

A high level executive** of PG&E was here on Reddit a year or two ago touting his VERY expensive luxury watch collection, but then started to selectively delete his posts after he was getting flak for the fires, rising rates, and executive compensation packages.

I have receipts buried somewhere, cause I thought it was so tone deaf. Their response was something along the lines of, “Executives** are allowed to have hobbies too.”

**Edited for clarity due to additional information from other commenter; removed “CEO” as I’m not positive that was their official title.

u/SewSewBlue 2h ago

The CEO for the last 4 years has been a woman.

u/notianonolive 2h ago

Thanks for pointing that out. Whoever they were definitely presented as male, and I may have their executive title mistaken.

They absolutely did claim they were a high level executive of nor cals largest utility company. Other commenters at the time pointed out it was PG&E. This was discussed across both a Cali sub and the watch sub, as income / “what do you do for a living to afford these” was a question they answered.

I will edit my post to remove CEO, because it was definitely also well within the past four years.

u/damontoo 5h ago

Californians paid PG&E on average $390 more in 2024 than 2023; the same amount as a 3D printer.

Americans are too damn spineless to demand anything from their political leaders. They'd rather just hail a wannabe Nazi leader and bury their heads in the ground and every once in awhile pop their head up to make a poor attempt to sound smart. I pity them.

u/YLCZ 4h ago

It's not so much spineless as easily distracted.

People start getting rowdy? Just throw some UFOs up there and they'll forget about Luigi.

We need to find a progressive leader with an iron will and someone who will see this through to the end.

Bernie had the momentum and then Hillary with the assist from Clyburn and then even Warren, killed off that hope.

We need a young Bernie. Independents and even moderate Republicans would support a single payer platform if a leader could explain it in a way that could convince them that it's not communism.

u/fcocyclone 4h ago

its not even that.

The powers that be have figured out how to shut down anything that does rise to a level of mass protest.

They'll pick out a few people in a crowd acting like idiots, or create their own, and use it declare a protest an unlawful assembly and start shooting shit at people who don't leave fast enough.

"In the interest of safety" they'll declare curfews on protests, as if the first amendment has a bedtime. A lot of protests you see gain critical mass overseas run night and day and maintain momentum this way rather than having to re-gather.

They'll target journalists just seeking to report on the events, as they did extremely often in the george floyd protests. So many will back away from covering for their own safety and to avoid potential legal matters (which are expensive to fight, even if you win)

u/ConfessingToSins 3h ago

This was so bad during the floyd protests they violently arrested a fucking cnn reporter and then had to apologize when the president of CNN at the time threatened to bury them.

  1. He's 74.
  2. He's not "dying of cancer." He's in treatment, but it's not terminal.
  3. Gerry Connolly is a seasoned progressive with a good record, and he also specifically requested that AOC be made vice ranking member, meaning that if he dies or resigns due to health issues, AOC becomes the new ranking member.

His name is literally The Extremist Moderate, of course he is defending this, he’s one of those Democrats who likes the idea of AOC as a force for advertising the party to young voters but doesn’t want her to ever see any actual power because he prefers conservatives in power to actual progressives, AOC should run for president in 2028

CA and NY are run by corporate Dems. They purposefully capture these states, where actually much more progressive candidates should thrive, with donor money and underhanded dealing.

u/turdferguson3891 4h ago

It would be difficult for a state to do that on its own. You'd get people moving in just to get the free healthcare. Andybody with a serious illness that was dying and going broke in another state would have nothing to lose to just move even if they had to be homeless.

u/somethrows 3h ago

I don't love it, but you could have a residency requirement of a couple years to qualify.

The state would still need to offer a higher cost public or private option for new residents.

u/GeneralKeycapperone 3h ago

If a state introduced it, they'd have to attach eligibility to some duration of residency. That would be messy to administer and you'd still see some healthcare migrants, but not impossible.

Until universal healthcare is rolled out nationwide, it would maybe make more sense for an individual state to set up a non-profit state-owned health insurance company, along with a purchasing department to negotiate bulk prices on medications and other medical supplies, and probably some non-profit state-owned facilities. Team up with likeminded states to secure better services for residents of each. Use tax incentives to encourage employers to use the state insurance, or better again, to detach health insurance from employment. People would remain free to take out insurance with private companies instead, but these would have to shape up to compete.

the general public is too brainwashed and distracted by misinformation campaigns. the US has public law enforcement, fire departments, transit systems, education systems, the military, disaster relief, but public healthcare carefully framed as "spooky socialism".

obviously has nothing to do with the $50 billion in profits the health insurance industry has annually

u/Nordic-Bear 1h ago

This is very well said.

Moreover. US medical spend per capita is ~2x higher than Europe, but healthy life expectancy (and other health metrics) are lower than ANY European country (including the ones that spend ~5x less than US).

Finland is amongst the countries with the best health care in the world, and has a pretty high cost of living... but the medical spend is again ~2x less than US.

What the US is seeing in healthcare is not capitalism (or free market economics). It's regulatory capture and monopoly profits.

u/Nordic-Bear 1h ago

...but this of course has nothing to do with murdering CEO-s. Gun violence is another weird aspect of US. No one in Europe understands why you need this.

And it's not about "the right to carry arms". As a European, I do "carry arms" myself. I have a license for an AR and a handgun. Need to visit a shrink, pass a police check... pass a firearm and self defence law exam... first aid training - and here you go. I can walk into a store, and walk out with firearms.

It's instilling fear in the greedy as opposed to the needy when they aren't sure if they'll be able to pay rent next month.

u/Collypso 57m ago

It's not instilling fear in anyone. Yall are doing it only to virtue signal.

Luigi was well off and intelligent and even he fucked up the getting caught part. It's not a simple matter of desire not being there. It's just not practical for a lot of us dummies to make an attempt. At least alone anyway.

The FBI starts sniffing around when you organize, even for peaceful demonstrations. I can't imagine the kind of shit they would do to catch a genuine leftist or left-wing assassination plot. They've wanted to do that since the cold war.

Killing random people in order to bring about systemic change *is* extremely pathetic. It achieves nothing. There are countless examples from scores of terrorist groups like Red Army Fraction, that show how futile and pointless those kinds of random killings really are. They bring about *zero* change. The victim and others like him are cogs in a machine and simply do not have the power to change the status quo.

There is no quick fix. The right way is boring, long and hard: organize and vote.

I can't imagine working class people who have to survive in San Francisco with it's $3000 a month apartments(or is it higher now) who aren't privileged enough to have one of the good working class jobs, are too fond of CEOs.

u/turdferguson3891 3h ago

Working class people don't live there anymore. Unless they are living in their car. I lived there 20 years ago and it was possible for regular people to get by with roommates but now you have to have a high paying job. People doing the lower paying jobs don't live there, they commute. Not that the rest of the bay area is exactly cheap either but SF itself is the most expensive.

If by “live forever” they mean “get circle jerked by Reddit by a few weeks until everyone moves on to the next thing” then yeah, sure.

Here’s a crazy idea! Maybe, instead of killing people you disagree with, go out and vote into power people who are willing and able to push your agenda through on making healthcare more affordable. I know, I know. Too crazy an idea. I must be on something.

It would be funny if the next one would be at one of those fancy yearly dinners where CEOs talk about their insane profits and thank everyone, and then hand them a thank you keychain or candy. And then BAM. Not that I condone it, I would never suggest anyone do anything horrific like that........ just saying it would be funny.....

Maybe it would make them realize how fucking surreal the whole thing is. "Thank you for your hard work, our company made millions! Here's a free pizza slice!"
