When people hate others simply because of how much money they have, well, it really shows their colors.

@freemo Understanding resources are not endless and some being extremely rich must cause poverty elsewhere is a color? I must have been slacking on my LSD.

@admitsWrongIfProven Actually yes... resources may be finite but wealth is not... Some people having more wealth does **not** mean others have to have less as a result. Wealth is largely generated. One person having more doesnt imply someone else has to have less, thats not how wealth works.

@freemo It does not mean that any inequality immediately causes poverty, but please, do you really want to say billionaires deliver good value for their wealth and do not cause poverty right now?

The hopelessness in face of worsening conditions for the masses in times of record profits for big companies might spawn some rather tasteless reactions, but refugees drowning in the mediteranean are tasteless as well. As are slums in front of Amazon warehouses filled with the generously compensated workers.

So if you don't see a reason to complain about the one side, i can't take you seriously if you complain about the other.

@admitsWrongIfProven @freemo aaaaah here’s the snarky passive aggressive conversation I have missed so much from Twitter.. 😒

@wiredfire @freemo For clarification: do you mean both of us or just one?

Sorry if it triggered you, we do this from time to time... despite what you see here, we generally get along.

Yes i like admits and consider him a good guy. We just differ in opinion, hopefully respectfully.

@wiredfire

@freemo @admitsWrongIfProven

And for the record I still consider myself on talking terms with both of you despite your mutual differences. It's ok to disagree.
