Post things your (least) fav billionaire does.

This used to be the Elon Musk sub, but in an attempt to boost engagement, we have engaged a new pathway.

You can post anything related to billionaires here.

As if he and his so-called friends don’t use words like “the poors” pejoratively.

At least if you don’t want to be a billionaire, you can do something to change it. Those of us struggling in poverty don’t have that luxury.

Fuck billionaires. Eat the rich.

Elon Musk is a thief who steals money from the people who actually work for it.

Elon Musk is a pestilence that has boasted about undermining transportation infrastructure to benefit his companies

The word "oligarch" has done so much legwork for liberalism in these past few years. So many people are willing to accept that this is the fault of a few especially naughty rich bois and not the inevitable consequence of a system that depends on material inequities to exist. Your cousin's uncle who owns a car dealership and rental properties is not an oligarch and neither are any home-owning, middle-class people who vote for property protection and lower taxes because they think it'll make their retirement more comfortable. There is no salvaging this system by purging "bad actors," and liberals will sacrifice these people if it means maintaining the hierarchy.

He is one of the people who are most responsible for the word "billionaire" becoming a pejorative word.

Right? We tolerated Gates, and Buffet. We didn't like the Waltons, but we still patronized their stores.

But now? They are overstepping hard. They let their account balances and their id outgrow their ego.

Maybe not Buffet.

Their ego is the overgrown part. Sure Musk seems particularly id focused, what with the rampant reproduction. But they're all in constant pursuit of elevating the status of their selves
