I don’t like what Elon Musk and Bezos are doing. I will never care about what the Kardashians are “up to”. To me, they’re all parasites on this world hoarding everything the world needs.

This was in my backlog but fuck it, I’m pissed off. Climate change is drying up the Colorado River and Great Salt Lake at unprecedented rates, and THERE ARE people who exist on this Earth who could help contribute to reversing that from happening. They’re too busy on their yachts to care, though. They’re too busy destroying companies like Twitter.
Anything and everything they do or “donate” to “charities” means nothing until they’re taxed at least 20% of their entire net worth. Donations to charities are another form of a tax write-off, so spare me the bullshit.
Us lowly simpletons are merely trying to get by each week and do the best with what we have. The Bezoses of the world are here to take it all for themselves. How self centered can someone be to do this? And why is there worship behind that? Why is that the goal to aspire to for some?
One billion dollars seems to be some stupid new goal that people have for themselves. You know who needs a billion dollars? The entire country, not just a single person. There is no need for a person to own a billion dollars.
What makes me even more mad about that is how most people who continue to support billionaires don’t understand how vulnerable they are. They’re much closer to becoming homeless than they are to ever earning a billion dollars for themselves. Can you conceptualize how much money a billion dollars is?
There’s something deeply, inherently wrong in the world when billionaires exist and there are people who are still starving.
People like Mark Zuckerberg asking natives on Hawaii to move so he can have more private land for himself should be a chargeable crime.
There should be laws preventing companies with CEO’s like Elon Musk laying off thousands of workers and keeping only a small amount of them, only to make them work overtime.
Jeff Bezos to ask the country of Denmark to make their bridge taller, only so he can have a fucking yacht fit beneath it.
This kind of “power” is disgusting, gross, inhumane, and should never be something people aspire to have for themselves, especially since none of them are “self-made”. That term is bullshit.
