Hypothetically, is there a specific number of billionaires that would have to be executed to have some sort of impact? IMO, even if the rich have just a little incentive not to be the most egregious profiteers, it’ll make some impact.
Allow me to tell you the story of the starfish and the beach…
A young girl was walking along a beach upon which thousands of starfish had been washed up during a terrible storm. When she came to each starfish, she would pick it up, and throw it back into the ocean. People watched her with amusement.
She had been doing this for some time when a man approached her and said, “Little girl, why are you doing this? Look at this beach! You can’t save all these starfish. You can’t begin to make a difference!”
The girl seemed crushed, suddenly deflated. But after a few moments, she bent down, picked up another starfish, and hurled it as far as she could into the ocean. Then she looked up at the man and replied,
“Well, I made a difference for that one!”
IF you can only do one push-up, thats enough. IF you can only walk around the block, its a start. An avalanche begins with the movement of a single pebble.
Look I’m not going to say I don’t think musk could be swayed by some head pats and calling him a good boy when he actually does something right but every effective movement has both the face and a bit of violence
The civil rights movement wasn’t completely non-violent but would have gotten no where without smart and charismatic people explaining why things are so bad others might resolt to violence
I’m sorry so say but the longer words fail on their own to change things the more “necessary”/inevitable violence becomes
Ugh please stop. The left needs to stop idolizing losers like Luigi or Unabomber.
The Che comparison is uncalled for because Che actually achieved something other than getting caught.
As far as US activists go, people who actually achieve something like MLK or Malcolm X or Rosa Parks or Harriet Tubman are 100% more admirable.
Choose winners! We need people like Musk for these causes, not losers who peter out and die.

I mean… Luigi achieved his goal. That CEO is definitely no longer alive.
I don’t know if that accomplishes anything for people who are suffering from unfair healthcare policies
Okay so that’s a different point.
Ignorance isn’t a form of evidence. You “not knowing” something has no external meaning.
Haha, I’ll ping you again in two years and follow up on the results 🤷♀️

Just 3 IMO, because 1 is only an anomaly, 2 is just coincidence.
But 3 is a pattern, then behavior will adjust.
Had me until the end boss.

This comment was a wild ride
Got you tagged as a corpo shill. You are about as useful to democratic thought as sandpaper napkins.
