It won't "trickle down". You need to actually work hard.

Lmao I bet the billionaires are working so fuckin hard stealing people's money.

To get a real trickle down effect, you'd need to tax them and watch the tears trickle down.

How about off with their heads since they'll just find ways to dodge taxes?

There Lemmy goes inciting violence again. Why is it considered okay if it is the right kind of subversion? 99.9% of people are rational but that leaves millions that take this as a calling.

As the saying goes: They only call it violence when we fight back.

[–] [email protected] -1 points 10 months ago (1 children)

No, it's just violence. There is no immediate threat on your life right now and this is premeditated.

The deaths from people starving, becoming homeless, being denied medical care, or devastated by climate change, all so that wealthy capitalists don't risk becoming workers again, are also premeditated.

Well, everyone is entitled to a fair trial. They are not guilty or eligible for capital punishment until that's completed and found guilty by a jury of their peers. Try again, extremist.

It wouldn't be fair, they're billionaires. This is the whole problem, and why people start talking about eating them (which I don't really understand) or chopping their heads off. If we were civilised, we wouldn't have billionaires, so let's not be too coy about this.
