[QUOTE=Bread_Baron;49301407]Apologies if this makes me a moron but it's not all theories and assumptions. He's repeatedly claimed his intent was to research better medication and that everyone in need of Daraprim would get it through their insurance. So he does have his own odd sense of justice, it's just not necessarily agreeable.[/QUOTE]
I guess the personal wealth he's obtaining through these actions are just perks of charity, then. And those suffering at the high costs are just unfortunate bystanders.
Didn't his company lose several millions of dollars from his previous stunt? Why would he try it again?

yeah sorry i take issue with dorks that have superiority complexes
nobody in here is actually going to kill martin shkreli, but odds are he will, or already has killed people with his price gouging
it's an extreme reaction to call for his death, but i don't think you or soaringscout care about any of that, i think you most likely came in here to jack your ween in front of the unwashed masses so they can see how morally elevated you are

I loved the last article about this guy that tried to paint him as a sweet middle class child, who happened to go to one of the most prestigious high schools in new york, which be failed out of, then through determination got an internship in one of wallstreets top firms, and then scraped together two nickles and several hundred mill in VC funding to get his company off the ground. The dude has had a silver spoon up his ass his entire life and continues to do so

[QUOTE=The golden;49302007]This is a legit good point which applies to most SH threads. I think many people don't even give a shit about the topic at hand or the people being discussed, they just want to come in with the holier-than-thou attitude and project themselves as being morally superior to everyone else in there. I bet they forget all about what the discussion was even about within minutes of leaving the thread, because they don't actually care.

Let's ask him for money on twitter.[/QUOTE]
When I get home from school I'm going to ask him to paypal me 1000 us dollars to see if he bites :v:
[QUOTE=The golden;49302073]Ears never actually said that, which I suppose shows how much you've actually invested in the discussion as opposed to just getting on the high-horse.[/QUOTE]
No, just defended people doing it and attacking people condemning it

What's up with all the moral authority types in SH threads these days
let people have kneejerk reactions, they're not actually gonna kill the guy
But while we're on the subject of morals, how do you feel about Martin Shkreli's latest plan to fuck more people
[QUOTE=hexpunK;49301534]I honestly doubt he was expecting people to get Daraprim through their insurance from another company, more that his company being the only provider, they would be getting it through him. Despite the customer not having to actually pay the $750 if they had insurance, their insurer would sure as shit balk at the thought of paying anything near that much for pills.
It was never going to be a win-win situation for the consumer in his eyes. We just got lucky that someone had the funding around to work on a generic really.[/QUOTE]
If the medication was on the formularies, then there wouldn't really be any issue with insurance companies paying up. It's not like they evaluate each pill prescription.
Left him a nice tweet on his page

yes, please keep psychoanalyzing me. the only reason i posted was definitely to jerk myself off. i'm sure this issue is as simple as "there are bad people in the world and this guy should totes have his throat slit in his sleep."

"People who call me out are shitposters!!!!"
Don't act like you're a better person than me. You've added nothing to the discussion. All you've done is continue to derail the thread by joining in with all the people claiming I'm on some kind of high horse because I don't think saying "I hope someone slits his throat in his sleep" is a very good addition to the thread.

Does anyone else think it's hypocritical to claim I'm on a high horse when you guys just derailed the fucking thread to point out how I'm such a low person that I have to justify my existence by shitposting?
If you guys actually gave a damn about the discussion, you wouldn't be derailing it by psychoanalyzing me and coming up with reasons why I'm such an asshole for disagreeing with someone on a website where the sole purpose is discussion.
[QUOTE=Solomon;49307254]You guys responding to SoaringScout and whatshisname basically just have them the attention they were craving when they came in to shitpost from their high horses.[/QUOTE]
"Stop derailing the thread guys, but lemme derail the thread a little more."
How can you assume I'm here for attention when I just responded to three posts telling them to stop giving me attention and derailing the thread if they give such a damn about "the discussion." (because apparently saying someone should slit this guy's throat in his sleep is contributing so much more than saying someone shouldn't).

But you were the one who fucked with the rails in the first place. They're just continuing what you started. I mean you really can't be the guy to go, "well if you really [U]cared[/U] you wouldn't be in the off-topic no-no zone!" when you were the one with the stencils and the spraypaint marking where it is.
[QUOTE=Emperor Scorpious II;49301083]People theorizing that this man is in fact a savior for "bring to the light" how terribly possible it is for a company to do such a thing is while in fact ruining people's lives while getting rich off it probably is the same way Donald Trump manages to snag so many people into polling for him.

Though I wonder, are there any actual reports of everyday normal middle-lower class people getting directly fucked over because of them, and their "doings"?
[QUOTE=Hyperbole;49300488]I'm convinced this dude is just trying to pull a "Look at how fucking terrible the system is" card and he's willing to be the scapegoat.

It's true that people say shit out of frustration, but you can't condemn them for feeling passionate about a blatant injustice. I don't even live in America or know anyone effected, but it still sickens me. "I think you guys are idiots because you reacted instead of thinking though the topic at hand, I came here for an intellectual discussion"
They post because they're annoyed about what this is guy is doing, yes they may be venting, but come on, you're just doing the same thing by calling them out.
You guys responding to SoaringScout and whatshisname basically just have them the attention they were craving when they came in to shitpost from their high horses.
I found his facebook page the other day, dropped him a message, hopefully he responds
