Post things your (least) fav billionaire does.

This used to be the Elon Musk sub, but in an attempt to boost engagement, we have engaged a new pathway.

You can post anything related to billionaires here.

What's the equivalent of sane-washing for billionaires?

[–] TankovayaDiviziya@lemmy.world 12 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

Brown nosing. Bootlicking. Bots.

In any case, I see a lot of sane-washing and glazing the rich on social media. The more common ones are showing the timelines on how much wealth Elon et al. accumulated with the captions "a lot can happen in few years." Like, they are framing it as if it's a rags to riches story. Are we supposed to be inspired that the rich got even richer? There is clearly an attempt to glamorise the rich so that people will become complacent.
