    I think billionaires are a sign that capitalism is out of control.

      Yep. They are a glitch in the system. An exploitation. There’s no way that any person should deserve a hundred thousand times more money than the average full time worker.

        They’re not a glitch, they’re the natural end result. When you have an economic system that rewards those with the most money, those with the money with have the most advantages and be the most successful. Naturally, over time, money will consolidate at the top.

        Of course you can impose things like regulations or taxes, but that’s subverting the natural course of capitalism. You’re literally doing things to prevent the system from working as designed.

        Billionaires aren’t a glitch of capitalism, they’re a feature.

          Fair point. Though I believe we can still have capitalism without such extreme wealth distribution. Tax 99% of every dollar earned above 10 mil. Make it extremely hard to reach 100 mil. Think of how much good that tax money will do for society as a whole, assuming it’s used properly.

      “Billionaires hate capitalism” as exemplified by Peter Thiel’s mantra “competition is for losers”.

    I’d personally prefer the use of manure or animal dung instead of spray paint as the former is a bit more natural and should not create any issue to the environment.

    Furthermore, if used in the right quantity and of the right quality manure can permanently stick to a porous surface thus rendering the entire yatch, car, jet, helicopter or transport mean completely unusable for a very long time. For this application I’d suggest the use of carnivore ejections as these are usually far more unbearable than those coming from herbivores.

    Anyway, keep up the good fight!!

      Thank you, FabioTNO, for providing much-needed insight on the topic of fecal adhesion and permanence.

      You seem to know your shit.

      I’d be more inclined to use road marking paint (the really thick stuff you boil to prepare) catapulted onto the deck. Or just burn it down.

      Permanent damage is the only language they understand.

        Too bad that you wouldn’t be damaging just the leisure of a super rich person but also the environment around it.

        We need to find ways to hurt them without damaging the environment worst than they are already doing if possible

          The impacts of the environmental damage are not necessarily worse than the environmental damage from not sinking superyachts in the long term, if it becomes a common enough threat that rich people no longer feel secure in owning them.

          The concern with anything too destructive is with the property and safety of workers on board imo, not the ships themselves.

          I’d recommend Andreas Malm’s book How to Blow Up a Pipeline if you want to hear more about the reasoning for this sort of thing.

            I’ve heard about this book before but I haven’t had the chance to read it yet.

            Definitely a reading I must add to my list, I’ll try to find a copy of it to correct this lack of information.

            Thanks a lot for the suggestion!!

        Have you ever tried to remove shit from a (both natural and artificial )leather jacket? Expecially shit moist with urine?

        I don’t see anybody using the soft and comfortable sofas usually provided to these boats for a very long time

          Do as you wish. I am just saying the decks are designed to be hosed down. Pretty much everything on a ship is. You spray it and it finds it way to the disgusting bottom tanks.

    More of this, please.

    Instead of blocking highways I’d love to see more rich people get their shit fucked up.

      while i admire your spirit, this likely won’t work without an extremely large amount of holes. so many holes that the water coming in is greater than the water being pumped out of the bilge. im sure bilge pumps on a superyacht are insane
