Personally I would prefer guillotines and pikes
Thanks for sharing. I sure wish Trevor had stayed with us.
I just started getting into watching “the Trevor Moore show” right before he passed. Felt like wkuk natural progression from wkuk for him and Sam. I was so sad when I heard the news.
No doubt this will finally be what makes the rich change their ways.
The super-rich respond by raising the prices on pitchforks and torches. When asked, one replies “We must always maximize profits for us shareholders!”
The issue with revolutions is that while they tend to get rid of old elites, they create a new class of elites out of the top revolutionaries and the cycle just starts over again. Many communist revolutions were supposed to create these theoretically “equal” societies, but they just insert in a new ruling class.
The problem with vandguardism
Yeah but what are the other possibilities? Let them become kings?
Theoretically, by wiping out the rich would create instability within the wealthy class, they wouldn’t have the time or the means to herd the politicians to serve them or to effectively disrupt democracy.
The inheritance that kid collects would amounts to “Congratulation, you won the lottery, now what? You haven’t own any corporation yet, know of anything about how to make connections with other politicians and wealthy class of people and so forth. You’re pretty much on your own.”
Like 70% of the time, those people wouldn’t even bother with politic and would just spend the money vacationing where-ever in the world and having fun with the newfound wealth, not busy trying to disrupt democracy. People tend to be very shortsighted when they amasses huge wealth, in fact, according to some statistic, it ranges from 44% to 70% of people who gain huge amount of money end up losing it all within the next 5 years.
That amount of time would basically give the common people enough time to go about fixing the political system.
She said many rich people wanted to set up their own educational or health foundations without checking whether there was a need or an existing charity or government-funded programme working to address the issue.
When the rich only think about charity as a means to further their own name, it’s no wonder nothing ever really gets fixed.
Surely their huge stacks of money will protect them from the bullets, right? Right???
I’m worried you may be underestimating how many bootlickers would be willing to defend a billionaire in some sort of collapse scenario
I would personally prefer to sentence anyone with a net worth of over $1B to a lifetime eating $100 bills until they’ve literally eaten their fortune. Show them the real value of their monopoly paper, you know?
“Fools! You’ll never reach us in our impenetrable ivory tower!”
And so the quest for justice begins.
Looks like we’ll need something capable of launching a 90kg projectile, with a range of over 300m.
Some sort of hulk? That would be incredible.
