Yes, you read that correctly. A socialist who owns a clothing company has decided that a “Most Wanted CEO” deck of cards was needed. And thus, he created one and gleefully touted it on Instagram and TikTok.

The founder of a “socialist apparel” brand who has called online for the death of corporate executives is planning to sell a deck of cards of “most wanted CEOs” — complete with names and faces and decorated with illustrations of gun range targets.

Comrade Workwear founder James Harr announced the disturbing project just days after UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson was executed on the streets of Midtown Manhattan.

He said it was inspired by the “most-wanted Iraqi” playing card decks famously distributed to US and coalition forces during the 2003 invasion of Iraq to help identify key targets in Saddam Hussein’s circle.

Well, isn’t that just the cutest darned thing! Let’s create a card deck that literally puts targets on the CEO’s of major corporations. What could possibly go wrong with this scenario??!! 

Keep in mind, the original card deck highlighted real GENUINE BAD GUYS. This card deck puts a target on innocent people who happen to run companies that James Harr and far too many others don’t like because reasons. 

This is a guy who has applauded Brian Thompson’s shooter – Luigi Mangione, has advocated for the deaths of other CEO’s, and obviously believes the attack was justified. Then again, he’s just blatantly putting out there what politicians such as Elizabeth Warren, Bernie Sanders, and now Chris Murphy have tap-danced around. 

Here’s Bernie:

In other words, the shooting was wrong…BUT the shooter has a point. Yes, Bernie (whose follower shot up the Congressional baseball game and nearly killed Steve Scalise), went there. 

“So, killing anybody, shooting somebody in the back who was the father of two, is outrageous. And it’s unacceptable. Nobody, nobody should applaud it,” he continued. “I know Senator Warren did not. But I think what we need to ask ourselves when we talk about health care, is why we are the only major country on Earth not to guarantee health care to all people, why we have a life expectancy which is significantly lower than in other countries, why working-class people die five to 10 years shorter than the people on top?”

As is now known, the shooter received excellent care for his back surgery and wasn’t even insured by United Healthcare!

Then, last evening, Connecticut Senator Chris Murphy took to the airwaves with his exceptionally bad take on the matter. 

How odd. Normally, you'd be squawking about taking MY guns.

So…this murder is YOUR KIND of 'okay' cold blooded killing, huh?

So noted.

As Scott Jennings points out, Murphy is carefully tap dancing, but is essentially justifying cold-blooded political violence or murder if it ticks that one specific political box. 

Ignore everything before the “but.” This rule will never fail you and makes it easy to keep tabs on everyone who justifies political violence, murder, etc. https://t.co/2hqqfx0250

Again, what could possibly go wrong with selling decks of cards that put CEO’s in the crosshairs. Many of whom aren’t comfortable with or are refusing to get security and/or bodyguards. 

Many executives don’t want to deal with the massive lifestyle change that can come with having a bodyguard.

“Unless they’re ex-Mossad they probably aren’t going to be that helpful,” one high-level executive who has eschewed security, told NYNext. “I don’t want to walk around with bodyguards.”

I have to wonder if this deck of cards crap will change their minds. HotAir’s David Strom is correct. What we are seeing from the progressive left is how morally and ethically bankrupt they are. They are cheering the MURDER of an innocent person and fangirling over the shooter. 

Then again, this kind of horrific reaction has been brewing for years. We saw it with Crystal Mangum and the Duke lacrosse case. We saw it with Rolling Stone putting the Boston bomber on the cover and turning him into a cult figure. We saw it with putting George Floyd and Michael Brown on pedestals, and now we see it with the gleeful and blatant celebration of Brian Thompson’s murder. 

We are supposed to believe James Harr when he insists the “Most Wanted CEO” deck of cards is purely innocent. 

Reached via Instagram message Sunday evening, Harr insisted the deck of cards is not a call to violence.

“I’m not suggesting anyone should cause any physical harm to anyone but I do want people to know who is making their life harder, who is stealing from them, who is deciding that a couple more percentage points of profit is worth more than the life of your loved ones,” he told The Post.

And that, ladies and gentlemen, is a metric ton of horseshit. It’s a distinct possibility that someone will take the ball and run with it.

This isn’t an innocent game of gin or cribbage. No, this involves human beings. Violence has been justified and my fear is that someone will act on this. And yes, James Harr will and most definitely should be held responsible if that happens.
