    if you take away their wealth what have most of these celeb billionaires accomplished? zuck created a website that got popular that wasn’t even the first of its kind. it was just popular…

    and if it disappeared tomorrow i wouldn’t give two fucks. humanity survived for thousands of years without facebook and instagram and it hasn’t been a benefit to society. it didn’t solve a problem that needed to be solved–we already had myspace and photobucket and the local classified ads.

    why are we treating rich people like celebrities just for being rich, especially ones who don’t impact your life in any positive way? that’s the real issue.

    i never knew who the CEO or creator of gillette was even though i shave my face every day. that guy deserves more recognition.

    Even if this is obvious, I’m really glad more people are coming forward with evidence, testimony, and details. It takes a lot of courage to step forward as a whistleblower and I’m happy they did.

      Yeah absolutely, and the more proof of what we know that we can gather, the less manoeuvring they can do to get around it. Corruption can’t exist blatantly or they wouldn’t invest so much in propaganda. It’s certainly does exist blatantly, but then it’s about a power struggle. Ultimately they need ‘us’ (collectively not individually) to engage to a degree, to say the benefits outweigh the costs. To keep using Facebook because the algorithms have caused addiction and our friends are on there. If anything overpowers that drive, and we all collectively turn away. They cease to exist. I mean obviously that’s why they try so desperately to intricate themselves in politics and weapons, an oroborous.

      We need this information, collectively. We need society wide disgust.

    Well no shit. To him, or any billionaire, empathy is impossible and even sympathy is a tall order.

    Literally the only way they can make any of this right when the bubble pops and shit starts hitting the fan is public execution.

    Musk, bezos, Altmann, zuckerman, etc.

    Nothing they do short of that is going justify all the damage they caused to the world, I don’t think we will be able to move past it unless they where executed, or at the very least have to spend 5 counts of life time sentences in solitary confinement with no parole, work release, etc.
