He’s declared war on “the woke mind virus” because his daughter is trans.

The way she dragged him was a thing of beauty and it showed how much he’s pandering to the right.

He declared this during a conversation. This was a discussion between the richest man in the world and the (allegedly) most popular intellectual alive. “Woke mind virus”.

We are not okay.

He doesn’t give a single shit about his children as people. He does very much care that his captive collection of shared genes look and act heteronormatively in public

Because democrats want a wealth tax, higher top tier tax, and higher corporate tax. All for the benefit of people that aren’t billionaires.

You missed out on a lot of good podcasts taking the piss out of it.

I went to see it with my brother and we laughed through it, it’s not good but a bunch of people randomly doing parkour off a train is a good unintentional joke.

These billionaires try to convince us they work hard for their riches but somehow they have time to find and post memes on social media. Doesn’t he have several companies to run into the ground? Trump would tweet literally 200 times a day about shit he saw on television and social media when he was supposed to be working hard as president

If I made a million a month, then even without taxes, cost of living or any luxuries, I’d have to work 83 years and change to become a billionaire.

There is no way anyone can work hard enough to justify accruing even one billion in a lifetime, let alone several.

If you made a dollar a day from the time the dinosaurs were killed by the asteroid till today you’d still only have 10% of what he has.

He is in the “First Order” kind of resistance, not the “Rebel Alliance” kind.

Curse you for making me aware of this. Apparently he wrote it in response to yet another cringe picture of him posing with a Samurai sword.

So, I’m obligated to be that guy.

A big part of the Hunger Games plot was Katniss wooing rich donors into backing her underdog campaigns, first as a contestant and then as a true revolutionary.

Mon Mothma was a mega-wealthy Corriscant socialite who built an underground financial network capable of financing the rebellion.

And those are just the fictional reflections of real historical revolutionary struggles. Class Traitors are a pivotal part of any anti-capitalist narrative and for good reason. A rebellion marches on its stomach.

Musk is still a coked-up ego-maniacal dipshit. But the idea that you just need a bumper crop of angry poor people to revolutionize a society has an extensive list of empirical refutations.

Musk is not that guy, but yeah, all resistance stories have rich people on the other side secretly financing them and providing access to things.

I don’t think Haiti had any secret anti-slavery plantation owners, but otherwise sure.

If you didn’t know anything about Haiti that might be a safe bet but I’m sure more than one plantation owned by gens de color was open to seeing all people free.

Not really related but I kinda thought the nickname Jennifer Lawrence had was kinda hilarious. She said something like she’d be too tired to shower and clean up sometimes during the filming that they eventually joked around calling her Katpiss Neverclean.

I can’t remember if she was upset about that or not it was so long ago. I hope it wasn’t too mean spirited.
