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

        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.

          It isn’t like billionaires constantly ruin the life’s of people and are only in the position they are by stepping over the corpses and suffering of others OH WAIT

          Just FYI: Elon musk inherited his wealth literally from an emerald mine. Jeff Bezos is known for his current atrocities against his employees. Bernard Anault is in kahoots with genocidal dictators. You don’t become a billionaire without violating human rights.

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

            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.

            This is what convinces people that Lemmy has a bad community fyi.

                So you kill them?! Is this how you solve all of your problems?

                    So maybe don’t advocate for murder. Additionally, don’t suggest it as a solution if your views do not represent the majority opinion. That’s literally called radical extremism.

            If murder is the only thing that works for people like you, don’t be surprised when it’s what you receive in return with the backing of the state.

                Is a specific billionaire actively threatening your life with physical violence? I don’t think you understand how self defense works.

                    So, you want to kill specific people because there is not a law against what they do?

                    I’m trying to get you to understand how extreme and also illogical this is. I know a lot of ethical left leaning people. You are not one of them.
