Tbh it doesn't matter to me whether he's a billionaire or trillionaire (of course there's a huuge financial difference, but both is way too much already). He's just the most prominent ugly symptom of capitalism. No permanent fix to prevent this unless we get rid of these systems.
You simultaneously said we should fix the system while not caring about the class that warped the system in the first place.
You have to get rid of both. The system that allows the disparity and the wealth to warp it. If there is wild disparity it will always seek to bend the system further in its favor, and the only way to prevent that is to kill the disparity.
I didn't read it that way. I read it as the difference between billionaire and trillionaire being irrelevant, neither should be a thing.
The systems and the rich both need to go. I'd argue that those who disagree should too.
Those who disagree should go find their own planet to destroy
I concur! They should just go away, somewhere away, where they can't hurt anyone.
No, I did not say that. I said they're a symptom and that the magnitude of their property is not the main problem - the existence of accumulated property is. Of course we need to redistribute their wealth to the people. That's part of the system change.
ah yes, the class wars between the poor peasants, the billionaires and the trillionaires
