And that a CEO intentionally and illegitimately denies health care coverage that leads to people straight up dying or otherwise ending up permanently disabled due to preventable causes, that's just fine?
Of course not, but he's also right. Robbing someone is not violence, shooting someone is violence. Granny has the right spirit, but she needs to work on her wording/messaging. IMO the poster would have worked the same if it said "when you rob the poor, you're a businessman, when the poor fight back, they're criminals".
If robbing someone causes them to fucking die it is absolutely violence. It's like taking food away from someone who desperately needs it: you're essentially killing them.
