Surely once they own all the wealth and have enslaved the population they will finally be happy?

[–] floral_toxicity@lemmy.world 19 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

No. They'll never be happy.

Exactly. They won't be happy because they're not helping people, they're fucking people. And they are, ultimately, regardless of whatever fantasy they cling to, people. Just like the people they are starving. If one of us is chained, none of us are free, they just don't realise it.

Globally earning like $60k/year makes you 1%.

What you should write is that top 10 billionaires own same as half of the world.

Eat the rich.

This is global 1% not U.S. 1% for anyone who doesn't know.

I feel like I’m not allowed to say what we should do. Whenever I’ve proffered a solution, mods delete my posts and tell me I’m not allowed to say it.

Novel idea: cease the means of production.
