Affordable goods? Gone. Public jobs? Cut. Caregivers? Deported. Science? Defunded. Academia? Gutted. Economy? Sinking. But don’t worry, billionaires are doing great!
are we great again yet?
Nah, this hurts them too.
@darwinwoodka @godpod Relatively or Absolutly ? Yes in absolute terms they may not have as much money as before but in relative terms they are now further up the US social pyramid then they have ever been with more access to power , more control of politics & goverment then ever before.
@godpod Mark Cuban is telling everyone to run out and stock up on cheap shit while we can so we can "save money" once the prices rise.. Like we've got all that extra cash lying around...
@godpod can't you just send some lightning trump's way? Or an asteroid on the white house?
@godpod leeches do fine until suddenly there's no blood left in the host
Billionaires... Well, let's just say it's similar.
@godpod Dear God, please smite down these rich billionaires and their orange leader. I promise to not curse for an entire day, as you know that will be a monumental task for me. Amen.
Not to mention the Russians
The one thing everyone can think about is how much money they want to give to any corporation.
I know this is a challenge given the way the economy is structured right now,.
@GhostOnTheHalfShell @godpod
It's not so hard. Once you get over the bit where you have to start looking around for alternatives instead of doing what you always did, it's becomes enjoyable and interesting and opens up new options and experiences. At least that's my experience.
I think it’s going to turn into a past time. People will devote themselves too.
Realizing that our business are custom finances, the shit happening to us is a pretty strong motivation.
Especially today
@GhostOnTheHalfShell @godpod
Not just going to the supermarket for stuff opens your life up a teeny bit anyway. I can get fantastic organic eggs if I walk the other way - who knew.
@godpod They think their multi-million dollar bunkers will save them, forgetting that the people who know how to operate earthmoving equipment are topside and angry.
@godpod
Well, that's a relief, not everyone is hurting in America, yet.
Invest in torches and pitchfork stock - I bet, they're going up very soon.
@godpod STOP ALL THE WINNING!!!
@godpod They have non billionaire servants. I doubt any of those people eat food without an extra dose of DNA. Who knows what else the lower class will do...
@godpod But dictators/despots have a troubled history. Look at what happened to Hitler, Mussolini, Ceaucescu, Hoxha, Idi Amin, the Khmer Rouge, and numerous others.
@godpod
Not if they have investments in the stock market.
Good riddance. That's not my misfortune, there's the money to provide for me and have millionaires. There's enough if we share (wording: https://mastodon.social/@AnarchistArt/112314439652426474), and given the policy is oligarchs (to put it more precisely, the households in the vanishingly small top wealth bracket that exists in only a supercritical regime in Boghosian et al.'s Affine Wealth Model and not in a subcritical regime in the AWM), screw the economy. WAIT OUT

Oligarchs intend to collapse society because they like to. I intend to collapse society because I need to! /gen
@godpod I suppose the invention of the concept of ”god” dates back around the same time in human history as agricultural revolution, socioeconomic pyramid (and the actual pyramids). God-king on the top, hunger-slave at the bottom. Just like today’s ”capitalism on steroids”.
@godpod oh good. I was worried for them.
@godpod Oh good. For a minute I thought they might suffer just a little bit too!
