I prefer "eat the rich" as a metaphor for seizing their assets, not a literal endorsement of cannibalism. I'm actually surprised how many people literally mean "kill the rich". Are you guys actual sociopaths?

Iโ€™m actually surprised (not really) how many people can come this close to getting it, but still be so desperate to follow their rules, that you manage to convince yourself billionaires will just freely and willingly give over those assets and all of the power that comes with them one day once we've asked nicely enough.. ๐Ÿ™„

I don't think asset seizure going to be easy, but it's going to be significantly more effective and safer for everyone than staging a new French Revolution.

If you're truly advocating for murder on the internet (are you?), I don't think there's any point in trying to change your mind. I'm not "this close" to getting it โ€” I already got it and rejected it.

OK why don't you go kill some billionaires then, instead of just fantasizing about it on the internet? Good luck and godspeed.

I suspect this happens far more than you think. They just have amazing security details.

Nah, some of us just see that they buy the elections so that we can't vote for change. And they buy the judges so we can't sue for change. And they buy the media so we can't speak for change. So now we're exploring the extremely distasteful option because all other avenues for change have been blocked
