I would actually say this is very good.
To use their own words against them...
We need to see pain in the economy. We need to remind investors that the workers have the power, not the other way around.
They really have been just screaming for capitalism to be dismantled, haven’t they?
It’s kind of embarrassing we’ve gone along with this system as long as we have.
It’s really embarrassing. The French would have had four riots about already just today.
If you're going to be intentionally evil, you should probably do a lot of checking over your shoulder.
On the other hand, I wouldn't want to be a bodyguard for someone with crowd-sourced enemies.
About fucking time.
Citizen's United (and similar corruption) took away our ability to regulate tech billionaires, but we still out number them.
If they want to stop being scared, they can curb their parasitic behaviors and return the billions they have extracted.
Edit: Getting off of the list of the world's billionaires is a path filled with fancy meals, accolades, ribbon cutting ceremonies, and thank-you letters from happier children.
Billionaires have a moral obligation to a cushy job (become non-billionares), and they aren't doing it, today.
Exactly. They have the means to change their behavior. If they don't, they will suffer the consequences. Just like mussolini and Gaddafi
Fuck around, find out.
Greedy pigs who stomp on the citizenry live in fear of the citizenry, their customers. Who woulda thunk? Big problems with the economy under ~~capitalism~~ greed in the old usa.
Paywall, but going by the headline: good
The world is burning and these assholes are making it worse.
Good
My thought exactly.
good
What I thought the article was going to be about, assuming it was clickbait: Tech Executives losing their jobs after losing their company's money on AI, or Tech Executives realizing that it's their jobs that could most easily be replaced by AI.
What the article was actually about: Literally murder threats and firebombing their houses and that sort of thing.
I have no comment beyond being surprised that the headline was literal.
This shouldn't come as any surprise. Unions came about to negotiate over reasonable terms for work because people started to burn down mansions of factory owners, with or without the guy's family inside. Or just cyberpunk 2077 where chapter 1 shows all the nice tech and then some folks nuke the corporate headquarter and kidnap corporate techs. I mean that's a serious hint.
The started thinking it through just that one step further.
We don't need them if their products work
As long as you motherfuckers breathe our lives will get better.
You destroy our environment, our lives and our future.
Be afraid, too long you have lived comfortably at our expense.
Judgement and recompense is coming.
Good! Be very, very afraid.
not far enough.
Is live-streaming out of the question ?
