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.

Financial obesity is an existential threat to any society that tolerates it, and needs to cease being celebrated, rewarded, and positioned as an aspirational goal.
Corporations are the only ‘persons’ which should be subjected to capital punishment, but billionaires should be euthanised through taxation.
Tax the rich is the moderate position.
It's tax or eat.
3rd option involves several varieties of removal from the mortal coil.
good to know
Glad this guy is reminding us that the extremely wealthy can say shit so profoundly stupid you have to question their mental capacity. Really drives home that circumstances and greed can and do make stupid people rich.
"Tax or axe, your choice."
Maybe it is ... but there's also some justice in it. At lot of rich people got that what by taking advantage of a lot of taxpayer-funded infrastructure (like Bezos, say). Others got that way by paying their workers as little as they could get away with. Others slowly buy up the competitions then sell shittier stuff for the same price.
When you add it all up, it's clear that they've gotten the system rigged in their favor for a looong time. It's payback time, muh-fuhs.
its either tax or eat.
Don’t eat shit.
Euthanise with tax, mulch when they persist.
Narrator: it turned out to be neither
First tax, then eat.
Taxing the rich isn't the solution, guillotines however.......
Guillotines are too 18th century. We can use woodchippers. Feet first!
but it's easier to pass the head around the crowd than whatever bits and pieces left by the woodchipper
If something is worth doing, it's worth doing right
agreed
The interesting part for me, is that you can clearly infer from this that billionaires consider themselves a different race.
They certainly consider themselves outside of society. Even the sociopath billionaire equivalents of the early previous century had beaten into them the understanding of civic duty and charity, so they built schools, libraries, and hospitals. Today’s billionaires have none of that other than a desire to lighten their tax load and donate in self-serving ways. They are truly parasites on society, they leech off of everyone and cause far more harm relative to the absolutely minuscule few jobs they might create - and even then the jobs only serve to make the billionaire richer.
Exactly. Even the most brutal lords and rulers understood that they needed to keep their populace placated somehow or there will be trouble.
The Italian warlords and nobility of the 15th and 16th centuries were some of the most monstrous, murderous bastards you've ever seen, but they also bankrolled much of the art that Renaissance Italy is famous for.
It's easier to think of them as Lords and Ladies ruling by birthright.

Hang the rich, redistribute their wealth.
Better?
We can skip the tax and straight to Luigi. Your call.
I might not wait for an answer.
I like you already
I've said that if I went out and they were guillotining billionaires I would say "Hey, I wanted to do this with progressive taxation, single-payer healthcare, and free daycare, but you just wouldn't compromise, so here we are!"
Fuck his cracker ass....
When I say "tax the rich" I absolutely do mean it with as much hate in my heart as any slur-shouting racist ever had.
The difference here is: The rich earned that hate.
Oh, and by the way, there are two options here...
Tax the rich.
Eat the rich.
Your choice, buddy. Which will it be?
Sorry, Richie Rich, but people don't get to choose their race. You, conversely, could have chosen not to be a soulless currency hoarder.
Nothing wrong with hating a person for things they did voluntarily.
Listen pumpkin "tax the rich" is the last thin sliver that stands between you and what the rest of us really want. So take your pick.
OH GOD! I am so TIRED of hearing about how the "poors" struggle and about the "bad" rich people! I am poor but I plan to be rich, and I think it's DISGUSTING how the lower classes are trying to keep me down from from rising above them!!!
So treating the rich like everyone else who is paying taxes is a “racial slur”.
When You’re Accustomed To Privilege, Equality Feels Like Oppression
Rich old white men's lives don't matter, from every poor white man dealing from your bullshit
Wait until he hears about "Eat the Rich."
TAX THE RICH!
It's afraid.
Doctor's 'pull it out by its head' slogan is 'just as hateful' as racial slurs, New York tick says
Luigi has entered the chat
I was hurt by a racism in my worst place: my money.
Anyhow ... stiff shit. Pay your fucking taxes, you hoarding bastards.
Fuck off no it's not
Some slurs are worth speaking. "Beat the rich!", "Ax the rich!", and "Luigi time!" are wonderfully horrible things to say.
