First I’m not a liberal (at least not how you’d likely conceive of liberalism), second if you have valid ideas you should be able to defend them without resorting to ad hominem.
are you for a more or less fair world?
Mostly a more fair world, but honestly fairness is not the point. If everyone can live with a millionaire’s quality of life and the ultra wealthy can’t exert outsized influence on society then I don’t care about the existence of the billionaire or even trillionaire. Yes, I know you can’t have both within capitalism, but my point is that eliminating the ultra wealthy is a means, not an end. Writing shit on a random guy’s car does nothing to improve the common person’s life. Also just to make that clear: Even assholes have rights.
