there is not one good billionaire.

And where exactly is the "hatred"? The statement "not one good billionaire" is hardly "hatred" is it now?
Sorry, by now I would even go so far as to say they are our enemies. Because.. well yes, they are.
Saying things as they are is not hatred. It's something we need much more of.

@MaryMarasKittenBakery @Natanox @blogdiva @daniellatz I completely agree.

“Enemy” is a strong word, though. The usual fate wished upon enemies is horrible death.

While I would thoroughly enjoy seeing the end of Thiel, Musk, the Mercer family, the Koch brothers, and many more billionaires, that wouldn’t actually rid the world of billionaires.

What needs to happen is for the economic system to change so it becomes impossible for anyone to ever become a billionaire.

@Natanox
Billionaire have the unified goal of remaining billionaires. Please be genuine in your responses, I can't tell if this is merely concern trolling.

@Natanox @blogdiva @daniellatz “Won’t someone think of the poor billionaires? The people who want to limit their power are dangerous authoritarians!”

In reality, the people who want to live in a world with billionaires are the dangerous authoritarians. I invite you to get your shit together.

@bitbear

Billionaires are, by remaining billionaires, actively working towards the painful deaths of billions of humans as well as mass extinction of other species.

Please stop fretting at the possibility that people are going overboard in their hate for them.

@crispius @blogdiva I have met a limited number of people who could be considered "very rich".

Douchebags. All. lol

Happy Thanksgiving! 🦃

@blogdiva

That includes Taylor Swift I might add. No matter what people think....she does not care about you in the way her fans think she does.

@chris @crispius @blogdiva to me, anyone who's willing to hoard even over 10 millions can't be thinking much about society.

(With the price of houses nowadays, can't even talk about over a million anymore, sigh)

@stephanie @crispius @blogdiva yup

@SallyStrange @blogdiva @daniellatz Obviously you can't since my reply was genuine. I simply believe it's a systemic issue over one that can be attributed to a group of people within the system, even if that group of people will try to keep the system afloat that made them powerful.
Every human can do bad, they merely have to believe they're the good ones.

If this already gets personal I've no interest in entertaining you.

@sidereal @blogdiva @daniellatz Alright, you guys are obviously incapable of talking about systemic change without becoming assholes putting words in my mouth I never said. Screw off.

@chris i met this one guy once who was cool. he like worked in construction and then built his own company. he absolutely spent a bunch of his life actually working. but the rest, and i've met too many, are douchebags.

Chris Alemany🇺🇦🇨🇦🇪🇸

@RVLara23 @blogdiva if it didn’t include her, she wouldn’t let Ticketmaster and Hotel chains price gouge the hell out of people who just want to go to a concert.

Chris Alemany🇺🇦🇨🇦🇪🇸

@arrrg the people who have actually “built” extreme wealth themselves through actual productive effort are much more likely to not be douchebags. Their children however.

Exactly.
"Hate the sin and not the sinner". Gandhi, among others.

All they have to do is hand over all but a million dollars in assets, and they'll no longer be enemies.

@SallyStrange @bitbear @MaryMarasKittenBakery @blogdiva @daniellatz Yeah okay then, go on your rampage and kill all of them. Create martyrs and rip apart even the small rest of democracy and law-based society we had, ignoring everything we know about human behavior and reintegration in prisons. There's never too much hate, and everyone who, despite also being against this system, questions this must be a concern troll of the enemy!!!11!!1

You're a pathetic extremist, not any better than MAGA.

Natasha Nox 🇺🇦🇵🇸

@EricLawton @MaryMarasKittenBakery @blogdiva @daniellatz THANK YOU. It's a relief to see sane people in threads like this, when people only see enemies around them and are so mad all they want is to kill.

Edit:
To also answer the above, I wonder how anyone who sincerely believes to be on the good side of a conflict can see someone chanting "kill all <group>" and "every single one of <group> is the same" and NOT start questioning it. Not to do so is a dead giveaway of one's own demise.
