It has to be fucking taken by force, and I dont wanna hear any of your goddamn neoliberal whining about it. It’s not “the world’s billionaires”; it’s “world billionaires propped up by US monetary policy”. It has to stop. Bezos, btw, literally destroys companies and competition with a simple mouse click. He single-handedly controls the entirety of online commerce. One guy. Controlling EVERYTHING.
A cabal of Digi-tech-al robber Barons running the country openly. Elon Musk is going to be a staff member of the US Government.
Then why aren’t you doing it?
Its great when milquetoast dweebs think they’re so smart by responding with various versions of this cuckery
Answer the question.
Some of them literally have their money in Euros and European companies, which the US does not control. I’m not going to whine if you wanna revolution, that’s understandable, but be factual on the way.
USD is the king but yeah euro system is the other half of the orphan crushing machine
They subject to the same rules and interoperabile
Oligarchs can move within eurodollar no problems
If things continue the way that they are, we’ll have one shop for everything, we’ll all drive the same car, get your energy from the same company…
I’m sorry that I whine about not killing people.
As someone that has taken beating after beating I’m not down with violence except the verbal type. But worry not they take crazy-ies like me out to fields, make us dig our own graves, and then shoot us into them.
So maybe I have a different view of “violence for change” than you do.
Dude, I think that sentiment is shared among all the political spectrum. What happens after is what we tend to debate. I love communism in a vacuum, but many just see it as changing one corruptible system for another.
I somehow like the system Germany kinda has. More Social while still having control. Some say its hard to become rich as a company, but also you can have many securities. Still. I prefer a mix of both worlds
Bezos next
Musk still has a $122B lead on Bezos, and made $104B of it in the last 32 days.
He has a $122 BILLION lead, and he’s earned $133 BILLION over the past year.
His wealth has increased by 50% over the past year alone
And $104B out of the $133B was made just since the election.
Shit really? Well I guess we can expect it to keep going up
Not just him. Trump has the most billionaire-packed administration in history, and they are all about to see huge gains.
How in the fuck?
But Bezos literally controls THE ENTIRETY OF ONLINE COMMERCE and destroys companies and small businesses with a simple mouse click.
Literally DESTROYS COMMERCE with a simple mouse click.
He is the Ultimate Evil Capitalist; the JD Rockefeller of our generation.
Part of the problem is that other sites are just soooo shit when it comes to online shopping. I hate Amazon and Bezos, but they are dominating 1. Because they are a monopoly, but 2. Because they simply are better at everything.
From customer service, to app, to search, to tracking and returns, no-one else comes close.
It sucks, but it’s the truth.
They are dominating because they are good at those things…which means that there is no reason to be destroying small businesses with mouse clicks. It’s a coward’s game and an extreme psychopathy.
Unlimited respect for more vitamin DDD
Why’re people downvoting you?
Because his security goons reading this too lol
It is cute how rich waste all this money to check social media for threat actors while we are just posting and commenting from our moms basements
Real men like the Adjuster just get the job done without providing signals for pinkertons to scarpe.
The parasite classes should note that when they get deposed, we didn’t see nothing.
For what benefit?
Unfortunately, only for their own benefit.
Increasingly not even for their own benefit. They are like a parasite that is killing it’s host and therefore it’s means of subsistence
That’s what always gets me. You can’t spend a billion dollars on yourself - you could live in the highest possible luxury, waited on hand and foot by the best, and you’re barely going to eat up half of it in a lifetime - even if your money earned no interest
They’re not even happy. They’re hated by many, idolized by others, and the rest want to leech off them. They don’t even have good relationships among their peers, it’s like a never ending dick measuring contest
I agree with what you’re saying, but I don’t think it’s about any of that…it’s about control and no competition.
It is NOT about them having the most, it is about us having nothing
100%
so the adjuster notices them
For what benefit?
So the adjuster notices them
None, that’s the funny part. You could almost call it a flaw with humanity as a whole.
We can’t focus on any sort of task-at-hand for any greater good. We simply are just that self centered and greedy, despite those of us that fight against that nature, it’s still our nature.
Climate change? You can’t make people wear masks in grocery stores or vaccinate, good luck with the climate.
Two options, if you’re shilling for billionaires:
They’re intrinsically 10,000x better than you and me and deserve to be 10,000x richer.
It’s just theirs. It says so somewhere, no backsies.
Pure trickle-down had it’s day too, but it’s it’s a joke again in modern times, for the most part. You may object that these are all weak arguments, but basically, you and what army?
Edit: “We need a remote chance of becoming a billionaire for anyone to go to work” is kind of a blend of trickle-down and argument number one, but I suppose I should mention it, just for the sake of completeness
I guess even as a billionaire, the difference between your first 50 billion and your second 50 billion is that with your second you can make frivolous purchases of social media companies without going back to being poor.
It’s still bullshit in the big picture of history.
Yeah, it’s a continuous scale, which is something people miss sometimes. When you talk to people with millions of dollars they have a tendency to say they’re not that rich, and point to some guy they know with tens of millions. They’re not wrong per se even if they’re dangerously out of touch; that extra digit changes a lot.
The bullshit is just that that scale goes way, way too high, as well as way too low. Human ability is normally distributed, and human worth is often held to be inalienably equal. Wealth follows a completely different distribution, for reasons.
This is either a boring rhetorical question or a very confused one.
I mean, my wealth has more than doubled over the past decade. The stock market has been going absolutely bananas, and my retirement accounts have done well.
I guess when corporate media told us the economy was doing great, it was you they were talking to, and not the other ~80–90% of Americans.
Your wealth has more than doubled. So? A significant number of people are in the shit. But I suppose as long as you’re doing ok, that’s alls that matters….
OK for some I guess.
They’ll double next decade too, don’t worry. We humans aren’t really good at this planetary dominion shit. We’ve only really been at it for 200 years or so and we’re already fucking up.
The system is working as intended.
maybe we should kill them?

Everyone’s wealth doubled.
Why would you think that?
Because inflation and stock markets are going nuts. And since everyone working has their pension invested, their wealth went up as well. Plus house prices went up. The problem is that people confuse wealth with money. And wealth is not money. You can’t buy bread with wealth.
By definition if inflation doubles and the value of your estate doesn’t change, your actual wealth didn’t change.
your actual wealth didn’t change
Actually, it did—it was cut in half.
It’s more like they have tons of more money and larger numbers in their portfolio. it’s however not a significant increase in actual wealth, since the money they have is increasingly wort less and the worth of their assets are increasingly more and more speculative in nature. The pockets of billionaires is where all the printed money eventually ends up and society is no richer for it. The money contributes to inflation, but it really doesn’t get invested or anything.
That’s not how it works. They use it as Capital to influence politics and things like that, which buys them more influence, which they use to reduce workers pay, rights, and benefits even further, which they absolutely use to acquire more wealth.
Every billion they gain comes at the cost to worker rights.
What are you getting at?
