it is, though.

The implication is that Brian Thompson should be/is a hero to working class people.

he's not.

he's an asshole who made millions fucking over people just trying to get medical care. many of whom have died as a result of his fucking them over, and that is especially true of those who actually work for a living- which he has not in a very long time.
