    It’s very concerning that the richest person to have ever lived is a full Blut und Boden fascist. This should be but probably won’t be a wakeup call to all decent people worldwide that something is very wrong with capitalism. And not just capitalism, but very advanced and deeply embedded capitalism. Musk is an evil fuck, and no amount of money can buy him a soul.

    Tbh it doesn’t matter to me whether he’s a billionaire or trillionaire (of course there’s a huuge financial difference, but both is way too much already). He’s just the most prominent ugly symptom of capitalism. No permanent fix to prevent this unless we get rid of these systems.

    As the billionaires multiply their wealth by a factor of 1000, so too do I multiply my personal hatred for them, and so too does the social urgency of their abolition multiply anarchy

    I had a thought about it.

    Elon Musk has 14 children.

    If you chop off his head, there will be 14 more billionaires. Elon Musk is the Hydra.

          It’s probably dependent on your age and location, but a lot of people associate the Donald Duck Uncle Scrooge with the Dickens story thanks to this:

    Show it to me? All I see is numbers on a screen. Where’s the gold to back it up. No? Then no trillionare.

      Tbf, gold is mostly only valuable as a social construct like cash or the numbers on the screen.

          No. Food has inherent value. A tool has inherent value. Kindness has inherent value. Gold has value in its practical applications but it’s dollar value is largely because it’s pretty and kind of rare.
