So guys, this is a fulcrum point. These fucks need to be stopped or America is (more) fucked.

The most we can probably do is get as many optics on this as possible. Let them know this won't be done in the dark.

Start generating stochastic terrorism targeting billionaires is also an option. Put up flyers with like 'Someone should DO SOMETHING about the ultra wealthy parasites" with some gun graphics, maybe some home addresses.

We're not so far into dystopian cyberpunk that the ultra wealthy have indestructible cyberbodies. Any disgruntled twitter employee could throw Musk out the window and he'd die like anyone else.

Is it wrong that I could go for a vigilante at this point? A Robin Hood of sorts but more violent?

Just like Microsoft and the IRS, they’ll get this done. Piece by piece, it’s all falling into place. The worst place.

It is long past time we got over our child-like worship of billionaires.
