    Since they are getting rich just because of people buying their stuff, the power is in buying. Stop buying. Watch La belle verte movie. There show how people stopped all this madness.

      That just works when the people buy directly, not thru government contracts or subsidies.

    I will get banned for this, perhaps: I seriously think we should be setting their houses on fire. Show them they are not welcome on this planet. Just fucking revolt against them.

    I simply do not see another way. They have all the money in the world to change public opinion and manipulate everything to their gain. We have to not play the game, ignore everything and just get rid of them without going trough the “proper means”. The proper means do not work.

      I think someone should build a simple, relatively cheap drone with a bomb and open source the design. Make it so anyone with a 3d printer and some basic supplies can hit their property from a reasonable distance away. Make them afraid to have that wealth.

      At some point one would think high ranking military might break off and start forcing change, before that might happen , doing stuff like this would only allow for legal actions to be taken against people burning down a parasites 100th address. Following the rule of law is necessary if you want to keep the general population on your side, Until it isn’t.

      Who do you think pays for the daily show or Last Week Tonight? The billionaires you like?

          People around here love those shows. But they exist to influence you and are paid for by billionaires. I hope when people on here demand violence against billionaires, they understand it will be against the entertainers they so adore.

            I can confidently say that anyone who would support an armed working class uprising could not care less if it would result in the cancelation of a few shows, and certainly not the shows you mentioned. I think you have created a mental image of some stereotypical “liberal/leftist” that does not actually exist in reality, and certainly does not represent the person whose comment you replied to.

    Generally, I am anti-doxxing… but the billionaire class at the very least deserves loud protests outside their little enclaves.

      it doesn’t count when you do the same thing back to someone that they’re doing to you

      if they have all our data, we can have all their data

      At least in this case “doxxing” could restore an asymmetry: Billionaires own the major internet platforms, they already know a good portion about a big number of people. It’s just not called doxxing.

    “Plan to”?

    Uh yeah that’s not how this stuff works. You don’t announce your plans like that, you just do them.

    I’m really curious how we don’t know where he lives yet. I’d expect someone that rich, loud, and conspicuous would be hard to hide. I’ve just kind of always assumed that the home address of anyone that big in the public eye would be easy to figure out.

      Some of his himes have been leaked and even made the news. But he and other billionaires have many properties all owned by LLCs, and knowing where they lay their heads any given night is difficult.

      With people as high-profile as Musk, it’s even more difficult because his entourage of staff, security, etc is big enough that they need their own support. You’d think that makes it easier - just follow the line of black vehicles. But lots of the secondary support apparatus may actually be kept at a different site nearby, so the house with all the visible security may be where the support staff and mobile security/logistics team is, while Musk himself may onky have 2-3 vehicles going to his site.

      I’m really curious how we don’t know where he lives yet.

      A of these guys own a ton of properties and only declare one of them a primary residence due tax purposes.

      If Elon lives anywhere, it’s on a private jet. I doubt he spends more than ten days a year at any single building.
