Instead of celebrating the death of a billionaire who is related to a politician you don't like, can we just bash the politicians that allow billionaires to go untaxed? One dying doesn't solve anything. And also, it's really not cool in my opinion to be happy that somebody died just because they were rich. They might be rich but that'd be okay if they all paid taxes and we used those taxes to feed hungry children etc
If they paid taxes and used those taxes to feed hungry children then they wouldn't be billionaires.
Yeah, people here are a little extremist/fucked up.
People can do shitty things, but it doesn't immediately mean they deserve to die and we should celebrate.
A little? This thread is almost entirely comprised of psychopaths.
The psychopaths are the billionaires hoarding giant piles of money while the rest if us destroy ourselves just trying to survive. I feel as sympathetic for dead billionaires as they feel for the millions of families they fuck over each and every day.
I don't think you know what psychopath means. Unless you're a millennial or zoomer who thinks words can mean whatever you want. Becoming as wealthy as possible isn't psychopathic behavior. That's what 99% of the planet would do if they could.
If you think it's unacceptable to be happy about the deaths of evil fuckfaces who have brought nothing but agony and suffering to this world and have made little to no positive contribution to this constantly self-destructing rock despite having massive opportunities, then respectfully, fuck you. Don't gatekeep happiness
You heard 'em, people! We need to do MORE!
Fuck em both, eat the rich. I'll celebrate anytime these motherfuckers are killed by their excess. Reminds me of the Disney exec a long time ago that died in a helicopter crash. Among a few things that suck about being an atheist is realizing there's no hell for them to burn in for all time, because I really wish there was. That's where they deserve to be, burning in agony and torment.
[Edit] I feel real strongly about this. The wealth inequality is one thing, but their interests also put in place a great deal of suffering via apathy. They are so disconnected from the problems underneath them for the common person, and they have such a severe lack of empathy or sympathy for others I really don't give a fuck about the families. How about the families of the working class who make so little they depend on public assistance? How about the families of their employees that generated their wealth, but can barely afford their bills and can't save? How about all the American families who's parents are going into "retirement" with less than a third in their 401k's than what they'll need to live out their last days?
You wanna talk about the suffering of families? I place the suffering of many globally at the hands of these greedy fucking billionaires to the point they have literal blood on their hands and they don't give a flying FUCK about any of it. So hell yes I'm going to celebrate this death. Fuck that entire notion, they're disgusting people and they fucking deserve much worse.
👏 Eat 👏 the 👏 Rich 👏
Hear, hear. We are better than them.
I'm not. If I could get away with cutting the brake lines I'd have been doing that. The issue with something subversive like that is that they may not know it's the working class killing them off.
It's not about "us > them", it's about leveling the playing field and wanting the rules (law) to apply equally to us AND them.
But they make the rules.
I'm fucking not. Rip and tear is until it is done.
Whatever makes you feel better.
Them dying off makes me feel better
By definition, a billionaire is a bad guy. You don't get there without doing bad things to good people. There are no ethical billionaires.
If nobody needs that much money to live, even in extreme comfort. Anything they own beyond 100-150 million is pure vanity. Nobody needs more money than this.
I think this is often true, but not always true. I struggle to see what MacKenzie Scott did to deserve my disdain, for example. I just think she should be taxed more.
