"Ethel Cain appeared to share her thoughts about the killing of UnitedHealthcare CEO #BrianThompson last month. In a series of Instagram Story posts on Friday, the musician used the hashtag '#KillMoreCEOs” in response to a post about money in politics being “the root of our dysfunction.'
"The original post, from former Secretary of Labor Robert Reich, described how powerful collectives like the #NRA, #BigOil, and #insurance companies 'buy off Congress.' [#OpenSecrets is a great resource to see who is buying whom].
"In a follow-up Instagram Story, Cain added that she was 'not trying to be reactionary,' but sharing her own opinion.
'I genuinely mean what I say. #Corporations giggle at protesting,' Cain wrote on Instagram. 'Why would anyone ever willingly come down off their throne that they’ve spent years building off the suffering of their fellow man?'
"'Nobody is getting visited by the ghost of Christmas future, no one is having a change of heart,' she continued. 'It’s simple, you make them fear for their lives and hit them in the only place they hurt or nothing will ever get done.'"
