Luigi shot one, they only upped their security. We must not stop at one.

Brian Thompson only had a net worth of $43m when he died.

That is mere pocket change to the actual Billionaire class, where the three most wealthy individuals on this planet each extract $40m+ of interest on their net worth PER DAY.

Damn, imagine if people actually kidnapped Elon Musk and ate it live

[–] DakRalter@thelemmy.club 8 points 2 days ago (1 children)

They'd get sick from food poisoning and ketamine overdose.

Also, is erectile disfunction contagious?

[–] Pat_Riot@lemmy.today 6 points 2 days ago

That one wasn't eaten.

[–] Ookami38@sh.itjust.works 7 points 2 days ago (1 children)

We didn't eat him. I really think it's the cannibalism that sends the message.

Holy cow and sacred broccoli.

Kuru is a thing.

Let's not do that. Let's put them to work. Proper work. Like plowing fields. By hand. Under the sun. From sun up to sun down.

I know many hungry dogs that would be fine with it

In fact, billionaire dog chow sounds like a great treat.

[–] qyron@sopuli.xyz 1 points 2 days ago

I wouldn't give to mine. Too high of a risk of them getting sick.

Kuru happens when you eat brains, just don't eat brains and you'll be ok.

I wouldn't expect more value from their physical labor.

[–] qyron@sopuli.xyz 1 points 2 days ago

This is about value. It's about pure, unadultered, punishment.

CEOs aren't often billionaires, they 100% do the whipping for them though

[–] rozodru@piefed.social 4 points 2 days ago

that's the point, it can't be just one. has to be at least two or three.

After the first one they did get scared like you said. Even the health insurance companies got a bit scared and for a brief time they started "doing good". briefly. then they waited. no one else got whacked. so it was back to the "norm".

You gotta cull a few of them in order for things to change.

[–] Sharkticon@lemmy.zip 6 points 2 days ago

Well first of all he's entirely innocent. So jot that down.

But if someone like Luigi had killed that CEO, that still wouldn't be the same as a billionaire.

Once is an outlier. Twice is a coincidence. Three or more is a threat.
