this hypothetical pondering isn't reality. mega wealthy people don't care if poor people suffer or die. they don't see us as humans. we are just parasites that cost them money. it literally doesn't matter that we generate all the money for them--we are repulsive to them, and the celebration over CEO extermination just pushes us even further into "other" territory

this is how kids are raised in billionaire households. you think that asshole's kids plays with poor kids? or even has any kind of meaningful interaction with them? hell fucking no. they go to private school with other rich kids, get chauffeured everywhere, vacation in places only they can afford, and on and on-- how else would all these kids grow up to be exactly the same as the assholes who raised them?

to hell with the lot of them i say

I'm more inclined to believe these ceos have convinced themselves they are helping rather than hurting. Theres also some evidence c-suite people in general have a lower IQ than non-c-suite folk, so thats possible too.

The news of course mentioned they go to public high school. I'm sure they never go hungry at school.
