Comrade Workwear
A self-proclaimed socialist apparel company, shortly after the assassination of United Healthcare CEO Brian Thompson, Comrade Workwear launched a card game titled “Most Wanted CEO.” According to James Harr the CEO of Comrade Workwear, the cards are inspired by the “Most Wanted Iraqi” card games distributed to coalition forces to target and kill Saddam Hussein’s inner circle during the Gulf War. Harr has made social media posts with images saying, “the CEO must die.” The flipside of the cards in the game includes an image of a red human silhouette gun range target, and the reverse side has the name of a specific CEO or influential person. The game has been heavily criticized for inciting violence and potentially inspiring copycat assassinations.
