It wasn't meant to be a personal attack against him, it was more of an observation that the citizenry are now quelled from being (rightfully) pissed about companies cornering a drug and hiking up prices.

Shkrelli is a scapegoat in reagards to the drug price hiking. It's still going on; it's still perfectly legal; and it seems the politicians are getting paid to keep it that way.

It's more of a thought of how the citizenry can get manipulated. Shkrelli was the face of this practice; Shkrelli is in jail; justice served. Or so the narrative seems to be.
