Personally I would prefer guillotines and pikes
Thanks for sharing. I sure wish Trevor had stayed with us.
I just started getting into watching “the Trevor Moore show” right before he passed. Felt like wkuk natural progression from wkuk for him and Sam. I was so sad when I heard the news.
The super-rich respond by raising the prices on pitchforks and torches. When asked, one replies “We must always maximize profits for us shareholders!”
She said many rich people wanted to set up their own educational or health foundations without checking whether there was a need or an existing charity or government-funded programme working to address the issue.
When the rich only think about charity as a means to further their own name, it’s no wonder nothing ever really gets fixed.
The issue with revolutions is that while they tend to get rid of old elites, they create a new class of elites out of the top revolutionaries and the cycle just starts over again. Many communist revolutions were supposed to create these theoretically “equal” societies, but they just insert in a new ruling class.
Surely their huge stacks of money will protect them from the bullets, right? Right???
I mean, yes, good luck getting to their closed communities and enwalled houses with panic rooms, personal bodyguards and police / law in their pockets. Did we even have any famous billionaire assassinations in history so far?
