Billionaires are looting the world.

@_L1vY_ @nickofnz I mean they called themselves Kings and created huge rituals to mark themselves as special
But yeah they were ROBBER BARONS all of them
and to this day King Charles exempts himself from any law he doesn't like (including discrimination law, environmental protection etc)
There is a reason Trump wants to be a King

A lot of us, even if bit by bit
I'm hopeful.
Afterall, who would want to be living in a Gestapo-style police state with a smartphone providing real-time intelligence updates?

@nickofnz we should stop calling them "rich" and instead say "greedy"

@nickofnz let's get them.

@nickofnz There should have never been private persons who are worth billions. It went wrong when we didn't properly tax those with millions banked. You don't need a billion to survive. That kind of money breeds madness in a person.
@RandamuMaki @nickofnz I wouldn't say that the money breeds madness - instead, I'd argue that madness - psychopathy - is a highly effective way to make that kind of money. If we don't tax the disgustingly rich, we rewaed the psychopaths.

Have been for centuries. Just that it's become more globalized and on a wider scale over the years.

@nickofnz no. Bigots are loting the world. Almost all of the wealth & power of billionaires comes from generous donations from poor, working-class & middle-class bigots.

@nickofnz While it is indeed true that the rich are robbing us all, the global economy has hit the wall and will shrink no matter what. We have exceeded the global ecological growth limits, ecosystems are breaking down all over the planet, we're running low on a lot of non-renewable resources, and we're consuming renewable resources faster than they grow back, destroying the capacity of the natural systems to provide those resources in the future.
