The brief period of democracy is over for the West. It is incompatible with wild wealth disparity.

The other monkeys would kill the hoarding monkey and take his bananas. Maybe the monkeys have it figured out.
With humans, the monkeys with atleast one banana defend the banana hoarder because they want to kill the starving monkeys.
Eat and masturbate all day
Sleep in a tree
Occasionally violently murder others causing you distress
Yeah, I think they have it pretty figured out. We fucked it up
We never should of gotten down from the trees. Big mistake
We already have scientists who study parasites. Muskrat is a parasite.
How rich does someone have to be before their physical body is torn to shreds in front of a cheering crowd? Purely theoretical question
Absolute weath is not the real measure. Rockefeller was worth 600bn in today's money.
Inequality is what is more important
yeah and look what happened to them, spacex should be disbanded.
SpaceX has a decent COO and business model. It's not worth 1trn though.
It should be nationalized. It does do some good things. It just does a lot of harm while doing so. It should be allowed to keep operating, but for the public good.
Nasa should get to use it for free.
SpaceX does but X.ai, X, and all the other shit companies he umbrella'd under it and not worth it. That's what I meant by disband
yeah unfortunately musk has gotten that idea that you can't have a mars colony unless you also have fully autonomous robotic workforce there to build everything ... i don't agree.
Depends on how powerful they are.
I’m sure millions of Ukrainians would love to tear billionaire Putin to shreds, they just can’t get at him.
We should probably disect Elon for science ..
We should probably disect Elon ~~for science~~ for the betterment of humanity
~~dissect~~ disembowel
i am on the record as saying that nobody "deserves" to die, but i can get behind a noble sacrifice in the name of scientific advancement.
Someone responsible for the deaths of millions of people (remember USAID?) deserves to die.

I like the video of researchers experimenting on social behavior in monkeys where they gave one monkey a banana who was happy until they gave another monkey a cherry in view of the first. That first monkey lost his shit and started screaming at the researcher by being visibly frustrated in his cage.
That's us, except we are losing our bananas, while the other one is getting the entire cherry orchid.
Wasn't there a study where a hoarding monkey got severely beaten by the other monkeys ?
To shreds, you say?
How much is 1.33 trillion meme-coin in USD?
About tree fiddy
Musk = POS Nazi.
It’s good to know we learned the obvious and valuable lesson Howard Hughes and the dangers of concentrated wealth have taught us multiple times over throughout the past, because it would be really fucking stupid for the world to repeatedly enable that exact same situation over and over again, that would be really disappointing.
Throw him to the Tigers, kitties are hungry. :3
