Is that a real fuckin billboard? 😂
From what I found from searching the web: no it’s not real.
That’s good. But the fact, that nobody would be surprised if it was, speaks for itself.
Yeah, I was asking myself that question and thought: that can’t be real, right? But I couldn’t 100 % say it was fake either.
There isn’t enough garnish in the world to get me to eat anything so foul.
You gotta eat them on principle alone. Just suffering through a single bite is enough.
In the course of my life I have happened to be friends with a few billionaires/members of billionaire families, and a number more in the 9-figure class. They are not substantially more shitty people than what you find at much lower net worths imo. Some are really well-intentioned. Also, some are just born into that wealth. Nonetheless, the inequality they are part of is destroying society. Also, sociopaths or even just selfish people empowered by that amount of wealth and surrounded by easily corrupted systems are very dangerous and harmful. So, I don’t harbour hate for billionaires themselves just because they’re billionaires, but the co-existence of such extreme wealth relative to the rest of humanity is a disaster that needs to be ended.
I don’t know any billionaires but I’ve known some higher-multi-millionaires and most of them were not good people - and then if you look at their children, it gets much worse. My own brother-in-law laid me off because his wife didn’t like me, I almost lost my house over it, meanwhile he’s in the Caribbean every weekend. He looks like Trump Jr. now, the slicked hair and veneers and everything.
Ok but how do you go about making any political changes that fix the problem when the billionaires literally own the government? The only way to actually, effectively eliminate the problem is to…eliminate the people that are causing the problem.
I’m not going to claim to have all the answers, but I would say the corruption and influence of money in politics is the first thing to stop. Get rid of corruption and tolerance of money in politics, then policies to address inequality could have a chance. Fail to deal with corruption or money in politics and taking out the guillotines won’t fix things. How to do that starting from where we are? I’m not sure. Maybe via an anti-Trump kind of character, riding a wave of populism into office but with a sincere drive towards a society of well-distributed benefit and a hated of corruption. 🤷♂️
Who got to decide that money influences politics? Eliminate those people to achieve your step one. You can’t just campaign against them, you can’t afford that.
Who got to decide? The corrupt politicians, also in a US context it would be the justices that voted in support of Citizens United, and the people behind the Citizens United organization. It’s a weird question to ask though, as if somebody just decided political corruption would be a thing.
This is the way.
Certainly appreciate your level-headed response. Hate certainly need not be involved for one to recognize that billionaires are simultaneously capable of massively affecting public opinion, while also being completely detached for the real needs of the average human. Pretty clear that is a desperate problem in need of a solution.
i think the entitled born into wealth, nepobabies would have the worst attitudes out of all of them. but on another note, i once followed some woman on youtube(asian,vietnamese) said she once dated a guy that was millionaire, but was shocked when he was such a cheapskate(one dint feel like he need to pay for a date, or got coupons out)
That’s fine, I will harbor enough hate for the both of us. When the time comes, sorry about your friends but it has to happen.
Holy shit, how come there’s so many sane people? or is it that lemmy is actually less radical than reddit?
ok nvm, I just read some comments below and wow…
We have a nice trail mix of users from centre to left on the political spectrum. Frequently at odds with each other, but I personally appreciate the variety.
reddit has a ton of russian propaganda, and other propaganda machines egging people on. aside from tankies and conservatives, i think most of us came to Lemmy because we were banned for calling out/reporting some obvious ragebait, trolling.
Don’t eat shit, mulch the rich.
I’m not eating any of these fuckers. Can we just feed them to the swine?
be wary of any man who keeps pigs, eh Turkish?
They will go through bone like butter
thank you bricktop
Put a lid on her Turkish fore she gets bitten
Canadians know this too. Our worst serial killer was known as the Pig Farm Killer
ooo TIL he got his comeuppance last year.
he’s pig farming in hell now…
there are lots of oinks and squeels… and the pigs make sounds too.
This will get rid of the body but you’ll need to keep the hogs alive for another few months or they’ll taste weird.
You seem to have some experience on this topic.
I’ve raised pigs before and hope to again in the future.
A significant portion of my pigs’ diet was expired food from the food bank and leftovers from lunch buffets at work, but I finished them for a month on corn so they’d taste good.
Donated like 20 pounds of pork chops to the food bank as a thank you.
You don’t want to kill a pig do you? A volcano works much better
Alright. That’s good too.
This movie is one of the greatest plots ever. The sad part is the lizard people have constitutional protections for their enslavement, and so do their traitorous minions in charge of interpreting the constitution and enforcing the slavery.
I forget if the ending shows the terrorist scum, opposing our righteous establishment, are ever defeated. But fortunately for the establishment, if you want to get your best friends to try on the sunglasses, you need to beat them to a pulp inches from their life. This is a hard bar to pass to oppose our lizard overloard establishment.
I prefer my meat not be filled with drugs.
Its immigrants. And if its not them, its black and brown people. And if its not them, its trans people. And if its not them, its Jewish people. And if its not them, its conservatives. And if its not them, its liberals. And if its not them, its the woke. And if its not them, its the alt right. And if its not them, its angry white men. And if its not them, its blue haired angry women with septum rings. And if its not them, its boomers. And if its not them, its millennials. And its not them, its gamers. And if its not them, its people taking a pension. And if its not them, its hollywood. And its not them, its immigrants again. And around and around we go, and never once will we stop at who it actually is. The rich and powerful.
Ain’t a single person eating the rich.
Together we
are strongcan debone them rather quickly.Spoiled brats. Wasting food like that.
