"But I need to protect my kids by not going to protests and by going to work to make money for these ppl and pay my landlord passive income instead! Can't fight against losing my home later if I lose my home now!" - Liberal Reddit-expats

"Imagine being one of Musk’s other children. You know, the ones who don’t get picked to be daddy's human shield due to their small size and ability to be held up in front of bullets."

Precisely. It's already done to our homes and our food and the water we drink, pretty soon it will be done to the air we breath unless we stop that unnamable thing that privatizes wealth and is defined by the ability to profit from it.

Why isn’t every Dem rep and senate members doing what Sanders is???

Is that a serious question? Seriously.

How are stern letters supposed to stop a dictator that can't read?

Certainly a better location than some town hall or sidewalk that oligarchs never visit. More of these, please Americans.

I'd rather a free and powerful energy source that'll benefit humanity not have a logo and pricetag slapped on it so that only the ones who can afford it are allowed to use it.

Hello there, random from another thread. Don't you have better things to do than combing through strangers posts?

Men vs Women. It's interesting the creative ways that humans consciously reject this form of schismogenesis, it's almost as though it's a foundation upon which human societies are built upon (aka how to settle our differences).

Then perhaps we should be so ruthless against that sort of practice, that it just doesn't look worth the gamble. Yes I agree, we need to get to the root source, but the billionaires are standing in the way of that arent they. Once upon a time they used to call social programs and such "Riot Tax" so we don't go after them, but we've clearly proven we don't even need a "riot tax" since we've proven to them we won't brutally deal with them in the most humiliating and painfully scary way possible. They're not worried about maintaining their social code because we're not giving them the appropriate consequences, so yes, as long as we don't sufficiently scare them another billionaire will take a crack at it.

It's a strange tactic coming from someone who supports Israel, where "human shield" is used as justification to destroy said shield along with the target.

Perhaps if we made a strong enough example of him it'll make other billionaires think twice. The De Witt Brothers come to mind, tell them "It's either this or 92% wealth tax on assets, you pick."
