@gabe

You literally went on to give a generic reason why all rich people were bad... it was not fictitious.

It is out of touch when 1) those bad actions are a generalization 2) those bad actions arent reality.

@gabe Except you arent blaming a rich person for their own actions beyond the act of simply being rich... sounds a lot like racism where you blame a person simply for being black and making overarching sterotype assumptions about all black/rich people.

And your last paragraph is just out of touch with the reality of it.. being rich doesnt mean you are unjust.. in fact most rich people donate a much larger portion of their income to charity than middle class people do, so you are assuming simply because they created their wealth and decided not to give away all or most of the very thing they created that they are by default evil.

@mono Italians dont really embrace white sauces... the white stands for the parmigano cheese, duh!

@gabe That doesnt make it right, if anything that just articulates why it is so wrong..

It would be like me saying (wrongly) that im happy some random black person died because im angry at all the times ive been assaulted by blasck people...

The premise is wrong, black/billionairs as a whole arent hurting people (despite there being plenty of notable bad individuals)... and you using that as justification is also wrong.

@admitsWrongIfProven

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

@wiredfire

@admitsWrongIfProven see this is exactly an example of how you dont ubderstand the most basic ideas of money and wealth...

> why extract money from the system if the purpose is to give it to the poor?

You seem to refuse to accept how money/wealth works.. it is **not** a fixed thing that is extracted. It is created/generated as well as moving around. The billionairs arent ciphoni g out your money then giving it back, they are generating new wealth then instead of keepi g it all for themselves they are givi g a portion of it back.

@admitsWrongIfProven if you are lumping all billionairs into the same category then yea you are completely disconnected from the reality.

Some billionairs do bad, some do good, just as many middle clasd do the same. The perportion of evil doers and good doers is about the same regardless of class.

That said rich people do statistically give a much larger portion of their wealth to charities and the poor... so there is that.

And for the record slums existing in front of amaxon warehouses doesnt remotely imply amazon caused those slums to exist, such poorly framed anecdotal evidence is telling of your bias though...

@linus pointing out his incompetence and blame in the situation is perfectly fine as far as I'm concerned...

@georgetakei Biden behaves senile, it isnt about his age, its behavior... Trump acts insane, not senile, but insane. He isnt a good choice either.. but Trump has nothing to do with Biden's senility.,

@lizzard What town are we talking about?

@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.

@TruthSandwich and thus the great future war begins :)

@TruthSandwich I think the better solution nature rising up and killing off the human race. That gives a chance for the dogs to evolve language and opposible thumbs and in a few millennia we will have a paradise :)

@TruthSandwich The fediverse isnt filled with any better people than any other platform... Its designed better, and protects us to some extent from evil admins controlling everything. But beyond that people will still be the shitty people they are.

@gpowerf yup, the defenses ive seen are just as appaling...

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

@TruthSandwich We call those poor people, they arent my problem :)

@TruthSandwich Dont worry, I wont shoot. The landmines pretty much have me covered in that case. The driveway is a decoy, the real non-mined driveway is hidden.
