I don think this is a “And imma hold your hand when I say this” moment. This is a Batman slapping the shit out of Robin moment.

That post hits hard because it’s the truth about economic reality for most people. The idea that we’re all just a few good breaks away from the top is a fantasy. It’s smart to focus on your own well-being and community instead of blindly defending the super-rich, because at the end of the day, their financial interests rarely align with the average person’s.

I don’t get why people think they can just wish for rich people to suddenly decide to “do the right thing.” Centuries have proven they never will.

I’ll never be at peace over the concept that there are grown ass adults who will go to war for rich people who sees them as a number. They’ll lay them off from their private yacht and sleep *SOUNDLY* on a satin.

But if I work for another thousand years without ever spending any money or paying taxes I—

And stop trying to discredit “rich” liberals when they try to help because they’re “rich”. Do you know what the difference between a million dollars and a billion dollars is? About a billion dollars. I take morning shits that are a bigger ratio of my body weight than the difference between a mill and a bill.

How long will it take for people to stop bending over backwards for a group of people who would happily watch them burn without an ounce of hesitation? Who even knows

A billionaire doesn’t care about a billion people.

The fact he refuses to use the Trust set aside for this specific type of situation is not only unprecedented but a level of cruelty that truly would shock I think some of the most heinous of leaders since there is no real gain here for him.

Jesus would agree with you for religious folk.
Matthew 19:23-24: “Truly I tell you, it is hard for someone who is rich to enter the kingdom of heaven. Again I tell you, it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for someone who is rich to enter the kingdom of God.”
