Let me copy pasta myself here to save time and just say - they are already murdering us in the millions, any harm that might come to them is an act of self defence.

Look around - the violence is already here, it has been inflicted on to the working class for centuries, killing hundreds of millions (at least, in all that time) for profit in war, with hunger and restricted access to water, with homelessness and poverty, with preventable disease, with climate change, with immoral laws and entire systems designed to keep large segments of the population as slave labour, which is what they used to gain their power and wealth to be in the position to impose all of this in the first place. And all that just off the top of my head, there is so much more violence that is inflicted on us daily, they've just got most people convinced that's just life, when it really really isn't. And those who actually benefit are never just going to give all of that up.

I kind of envy the mindset where one has empathy for someone who is so out of touch with reality given their status. I like to think I'm a good, just person that wants to do the right thing but when I think of what the billionaire's perspective is: someone with so much power and influence that most people are just objects or playthings to them, it's frustrating to think about. They think they're bigger than people, the earth, maybe even the universe.

I'm not saying I could be the triggerman, I'm not that kind of person, but yeah, fuck 'em.

They can live, but it has to be on 60k a year, with all of their initial assets liquidated and used to support people in need.

I want them to give up their wealth and power for the benefit of society. But they aren't going to do that, are they?

Billionaires is a weird group of people to choose to speak up for.

...And?

Murder can be just without being legal.

The murder of billionaires, and CEOs of oil companies (along with all other oil executives) is morally justified, even if it's not legal.

Yes. Your a naive fool.

Unironically choosing the lives of some of the most vile despicable people to have ever lived over the lives of 50,000x as many completely normal people.

I want to eradicate their genomes.

I personally am a pacifist, but the billionaires will not be missed if the general public decides to

I don't advocate for it, I just won't miss them

Keanu can stay though

Murdering people is wrong.

People work together to build a society that helps those who cannot help themselves.

By this metric, billionaires aren't people.

It's them or us

My tummy has the rumblies that only billionaires can satisfy

Killing insects isn't murder. It's pest control.

I don’t want to murder them specifically, but I doubt they will let us take all their stolen wealth without a fight.

You don't?

It's only murder if you subscribe to the "meat is murder" mantra...

Yes.

In Minecraft, of course.

murder is murder... but some murders are definitely less... crime-y than others

So OP, I'm unsure how to ask this, but you wouldn't happen to be... Say... A billionaire would you?

For me it's a case of where the end justifies the means. While murder is terrible and I'd personally feel bad if I had to take another life, it'd be for the greater good of our species (as well as every other lifeform on this planet) if the world was suddenly ridded of a billionaire or two... or more...

I do recognise that this is a slippery slope in justifying homicide, but what is the alternative?

Let the free market decide.

Shamelessly, yes.

Proof that people from off of Blahaj zone are weak

Not only murder, also torture.

Sorry, I'm just hangry. Lab grown billionare meat just doesn't have the same kick.

..do you not?

Yes I do, even if there was a better way.

I am a starving child and this is the last post I will see before I die. Goodbye

yes

I’m sorry, but this point of view is so brain-dead to me. What do you think happens when a billionaire dies? The money magically disappears? It’s redistributed to the masses? No, it’s inherited by relatives. Killing billionaires only creates different billionaires. How about we use our brains and come up with actual solutions rather than parroting brain-dead bullshit?
