If that's true, then we are using it right. I'd only use a slur on beings that are less than human and ultra rich fit that pereftly. And as well read as the rich are, they know what happens when a being is considered less than human. >:D
Add him to The List.
We really should make a list. Not like in list format, something more durable like baking it into some type of meme.
Man with more money than he could possibly use in his life is upset at the suggestion that some portion of the money he will never used could be used to help other people.
Being a billionaire is a sign of mental illness and needs to start being treated as such.
Financial obesity
Mamdani is choosing the lesser evil here my dear rich person... The other options is: we kill you.
makes sense, rich people are the only truly protected class
Oh, I think he'll like this inevitable outcome then.
Just to highlight that as a real estate magnate, his entire empire is built on rent-seeking, i.e. accumulating wealth by the hoarding of a limited resource, without having created anything of value.
This billionaire did not create a billion dollars of value for society, even indirectly; he only took it from others.
This is why the rich need to be taxed.
"Tax the rich" is the 99% being nice. We could go the France in 1792 route.
I didn't know the rich were a race though at this point they've probably have been having their genes modified.
People that say that aren’t even rich.
lynch him
Oh rich please.
off with his head
Eat himmmmm.
That's pretty funny because the phrase doesn't actually have a negative meaning. It's a policy proposal at face value and at depth and that's it. Doesn't say the rich or bad people, although many of them are, doesn't say that nobody should be rich, doesn't even say how much they should be taxed.
And certainly nobody should be thanking the top 1%. We all know that they got there by lying and cheating and stealing and inheriting wealth.
how much proof do we need that the rich are a different species?
They aren't, they are just sick. As with any sick animal, they should be put down.
Financial obesity is an existential threat to any society that tolerates it, and needs to cease being celebrated, rewarded, and positioned as an aspirational goal.
Corporations are the only ‘persons’ which should be subjected to capital punishment, but billionaires should be euthanised through taxation.
"TAX" is going to be the softest, most palateable verb that will be done to them, the alternatives are a little less polite.
“Oh, would you prefer ‘torture and execute’ then?” Lmao
My favourite phrase, or at least one that's given me a glimmer of hope for the future is "They will have to invent a new word for what the people are going to do to those responsible."
Torture And eXecute
... "Torcute"?
Needs an x to sound scary
Maybe he should just go fuck himself
Ebenezer Scrooge, is that you?
It he prefers "eat the rich", I won't object.
Don’t eat shit.
Mulch the rich.
Okay, here's the politically correct version then:
Take a portion of the income and wealth of people of wealth they don't plan on investing in a short period of time (not paid out as wages, etc.).
Well he's not wrong, it's definitely hateful. We don't say it because we think it's fair they get billions and we have to scrape by while doing the actual work.
That doesn’t make it hateful in the sense that it has been used recently. It’s just a normal response to someone’s horrible behaviour.
"Tax the rich" is putting it very nicely.
They've dehumanized themselves with their monstrous exploitation.
