You are sincerely welcome! I thought that whole comment of yours distilled a lot of our/my frustrations down to a few hard-hitting sentences.

I mean, I could have just as easily used this one:

capitalist "greed is rational and your lessers have to lose for you to win" programming

I think every other sentence you write could be used as an answer on Jeopardy and the question would always be “How is so much so wrong with the world? It doesn’t have to be this way!”

President musk might push it over I reckon. This whole visa debacle is a big fuck you. I don't think it will be his last overreach

If I had less morals or more energy, I'd give you a hundred upvotes.

Just arrange a dick measuring contest, and the largest dicks with the smallest wieners will come together. (pun not intended)

Make it so.

Killed triggers the moderation and censorship tools more quickly. This way some idiot bootlicker has to "get offended" and manually report it, making it take longer for the admins to notice and take it down.

The 55th World Economic Forum will happen in a few weeks, but the security will probably be, like, almost twice as tight as the average school.

My OCD wonders if they factored in having to assassinate the heirs of the CEOs and their heirs etc. until each fortune has been divvied up so many ways nobody has a billion anymore. And that would mean you advocate murdering children just because they inherited money.

let them keep $20 and give each of them a set of literal, *cheap* bootstraps, and let them get a *real job.*

Lettem keep hundreds of millions and all the non-lizards amongst them shouldn’t have realistic reasons to complain, plus society still benefits most hugely and you can still win capitalism (so they can’t argue completely any “necessary incentive” argument).

A lot of readers here are unimaginably wealthy compared to destitute villagers around the world, but we still prefer to have some nice things and only donate of our wealth. I’m fine extending that philosophy to anyone.

(In Burundi, the average earner won’t make $1000 this year.)

So were these sausages I bought today.

Agreed, fuck this Newspeak nonsense. People kill, fuck, shit, piss, go off half-cocked making asses of themselves, etc.

I'm all for censoring pejoratives that are inherently derogatory on the basis of sex, gender, nationality or racial characteristics, but I am deeply critical of shit like 'unaliving'. I am open to someone correcting this view, but it's something that started with large corporations afraid of their bottom line. IMO it has no place in the Fediverse.

Unlike royalty the transfer of wealth isn't instant so if you work fast enough you can achieve a brief window when there are no billionaires.

If your lemmy instance cares about that sort of language, please join a new one. The only instances I'm aware of that care about harsh language are .ml (censors bitch and some other curses) and .world (regularly deletes stuff celebrating the UHC CEO's murder).

Otherwise, this is lemmy, you aren't on some site that cares about looking friendly and soft for advertisers. Please don't bring that self censorship shit here.

I don't know enough to know if it's easier to cover up months of subtle and forceful coercion, or a billionaire's murder. I think that would count as 'duress' for the nepo chilluns.
This is hard, I can understand why everyone's not doing it.

Wealthy people likely have a living trust and the next trustee picks up immediately without needing time-consuming procedures like probate.

Not more specific I’m just correcting the inaccuracy - it’s a quote from your source I had a look around for a more specific figure too though out of interest and I’m really surprised that particular statistic isn’t easier to find given how shocking the numbers are. I’m not in the US so this subject always seems particularly mad any way you look at it.

People might be reluctant to assume possession of billions if people were murdering/ systematically killing billionaires. So, it might be achieved relatively quickly.
