Social media comments by Tobias Lütke, the right-wing CEO of the Canadian online shopping site Shopify, in which the multi-billionaire attacks universal suffrage have been met with outrage in Canada and internationally.

Lütke declared that voting rights should be stripped from those whom he termed “dependents”—based on their payment of income tax. This would disenfranchise wide swathes of workers on low wages, elderly pensioners, the unemployed, students and the infirm. These proposals were met with support from within the Canadian capitalist oligarchy and international financial elite, including from the fascist Elon Musk.

The sociopaths who don't feel the need to hurt people like these billionaires does will not actually be impacted all that much.

If they don't act like hateful assholes then nobody will know and they won't be targeted, and they'll have nothing to fear, but if they do act like hateful assholes then they'll deserve the response.
