He's not entirely wrong. I can picture a better life without Altman, Bezos, Gates, and all the other billionaires.
Billionaire Extinction would indeed be our best case scenario. How do we make it happen?
Traditionally only one way has ever worked
Imagine being a traitor to your own fucking species
If the whales were offering or could ask I'd sell you out for krill in about five seconds
