    The systematic oppression of everyone without wealth didn’t erode your faith in humanity but a couple people suggesting we kill our masters did? Well, at least you’ve got the moral high ground

        Haven’t noticed the skyrocketing wealth gap, eh? Costs going up for us while profits go up for them? Government policies that benefit them at our expense? Laws that don’t seem to apply to people with money? Maybe I’m the crazy one

          You’re describing the sympoms. I was asking about the cause. “Systemic oppression of anyone without wealth” is quite a bold claim.

            The cause is literally wealth hoarding. By those being recommended to the guillotine. They didn’t happen by accident.

              You’re being quite vague. What is wealth hoarding? Is Elon Musk the richest man in the world because he’s hoarding wealth?

                I was giving you the benefit of the doubt but you’re clearly just trolling.

                It is theoretically possible to get a billion dollars morally (by like… Winning multiple lotteries or something) but it’s impossible to remain a moral billionaire when there’s so many people dying from hunger and preventable illness.

                  You do understand that being a billionaire doesn’t mean they have a billion dollars in the bank, right? Wealth is not the same as cash. Elon owns who knows how many companies, and those companies are worth billions. He couldn’t even buy Twitter without external funding because his wealth is tied up in assets. This is the case with every other billionaire or multi-millionaire as well. They’re not hoarding cash in vaults like Scrooge McDuck.

                    More like in offshore accounts, priceless art, “philanthropical” foundations, cars, plants, yachts, islands, stocks…

                    Why did you type all that like it makes any difference?

                    How do you think a company becomes wealthy? It’s not by paying good wages
