While others are trying to cow you into submission over skynet, United Healthcare will use repeated Medicare Advantage denials to speed up killing your elders by eliminating stable care without a fight every 5-6 days, w/ more work while waiting on an appeal and/or coordinating a return home.
honestly some of the most apocalyptic impacts of "AI" will be shit like this, and most of the doomsday dipshits predicting SkyNet can't be bothered to notice or care

Alito is not the only Republican justice who has embraced this disturbing rhetoric in recent years. It is instructive to break down what they are saying: we shouldn't count all the votes, because some segment of the electorate would become angry that their preferred candidate didn't win.
