We’re witnessing the rise of corporate nation-hood. Corporations and their governing boards or tyrants are getting bigger than most nation states, and a lot of their workers are more loyal to the company/CEO than their country. They have personal security forces. We’re definitely in a period of increasing acuteness and concentration, not a period of release and expansion. Hopefully the catharsis results in something better than the Pax Americana, which only produced a society of navel-gazing removeds.
Top of the leaderboard for those playing the Make the Planet Uninhabitable game.
If we take all of his shit everybody would be rich!
obama should’ve drone striked him
Uncle Scrooge, a caricature or capitalism, was a saint by comparison
he did eventually see the error of his ways, billionaires have no 3 ghosts, except epsteins.
I was thinking of the one from Donald Duck but yeah that too
Show it to me? All I see is numbers on a screen. Where’s the gold to back it up. No? Then no trillionare.
lmao gold
Tbf, gold is mostly only valuable as a social construct like cash or the numbers on the screen.
As is anything with “value”.
No. Food has inherent value. A tool has inherent value. Kindness has inherent value. Gold has value in its practical applications but it’s dollar value is largely because it’s pretty and kind of rare.
You know that wine with the gold leaf in it? Geldbrau? I forget the name, the name isn’t important for purposes of this conversation. Well I hear tha all he lets his children drink, with the hopes that when he decides to use one as a donor he can say he got the fancy blood eh the gold flake.
We have a trillionaire, but we can’t afford to give universal health-insurance? The price of food and gas are skyrocketing too? We hand out tax cuts while there is skyrocketing national debt? The only thing we’re missing is a meeting of the Estates General and, then, you’d have the makings of the French Revolution.
If something is free then you are the product also applies to government policy. Social democracies are better places to live, for all the wrong reasons.
Serious question: What might happen if someone baited him into taking all of that money out and putting it in a money bin?
Here’s a “h”, it’s free.
Use it in your writing and you’ll agree, Zagreb ebnen zloty dien.
He’s such a goddamned symptom
He’s a fucking Nazi.
I know you say that as a slur like he’s the worst person in the world. Because we don’t yet consider anything worse than nazis/fascists. Like it was our latest media thing of how bad people can be. But I think it’s worse than that.
I wonder if the original Nazism and Fascism had a paedophilia scandal as big as Epstein Island
You might be interested in Hitler seemingly only dating underage girls, which later turn up dead:
Was Adolf Hitler a Pedophile? Breaking Down the Nazi Leader’s Perversions
Damn, I knew Hitler was a pedo, but I didn’t know he was THIS bad
Then again, he was literally Hitler
Fake trillionaire because if he ever tried to liquidate his holdings it would crash the world economy. Of course our wonderful financial system allows him to borrow against his fake wealth and leave the rest of us holding the bag
Fake trillionaire
I wonder what you believe a true trillionaire/billionaire/millionaire is. All money is fake, at best they are just paper, that’s the whole point of modern economy.
If you being a trillionaire (perhaps even a billionaire were’re talking about Musk) relies entirely on overinflated market valuation ans not your actual physical assets value, then you don’t have that money.
You do realize that you can become a trillionaire for a day either, don’t you? Just create a company, enter the market, emit gazillion actions and convince someone to buy it from you for a couple of bucks. Boom, all your gazillion actions are now worth that money. Try to avoid tax office at this point though.
He needs to be guillotined.
Woodchippered.
Slowly, feet first.ASAP
As the billionaires multiply their wealth by a factor of 1000, so too do I multiply my personal hatred for them, and so too does the social urgency of their abolition multiply
It’s very concerning that the richest person to have ever lived is a full Blut und Boden fascist. This should be but probably won’t be a wakeup call to all decent people worldwide that something is very wrong with capitalism. And not just capitalism, but very advanced and deeply embedded capitalism. Musk is an evil fuck, and no amount of money can buy him a soul.
Oh shit the fuck up. It’s not capitalism. I live in that society and I’d never do that shit.
Some people are just fucking rotten.
You live in that society and you’d never do… What exactly? What are you on about?
He’s also a moron. The fact that he is the most successful confidence man in the world, says a lot about our world now. Companies trading at hundreds of times their intrinsic values.
It’s very concerning that the richest person to have ever lived is a full Blut und Boden fascist
I think your opinion is hilarious. Would you feel better about him if he wore rainbow flags, blm and other fun stuff for the poor? You totally miss the problem here.
I have no idea what you’re trying to say.
Mansa Musa is a fascist!? I’d never have known.
