Billionaires provide nothing

My dude Luigi seemed to think they made great targets. 😁😁

I'm here to get downvoted too for pointing out the objective fact that the UH CEO was no where near a billionaire.

The reddit hivemind is full of dingleberries

Redditors pretty much want anyone who has more than a few million dollars to be executed. They also think these people produce nothing, have no value to society, and either inherited their money or are sociopaths in some way. Reddit is a joke.

it's sociopathic to chase money to the extent of becoming a billionaire

UH CEO was no where near being a billionaire, though.

u/bwinger79 Jan 08 '25

Guess Luigi was working his way up then. Either way, we need more of him, and less of them.

Just get your facts straight, otherwise it ruins your message.

Every situation is one in which facts should be straight.

Diluting your message with rage is self-sabotage.

Exactly as expected. Keyboard warrior and nothing else. Bye bye now.

I'll just sit here and slow clap for all those incorrect guesses lil fella. Hilarious that I'm "immature" in your functionally retarded opinion because your tiny little liberal gender queer brain can't understand common sense. Have a nice day they/them.

Huh? A CEO is literally just an employee. He serves at the bequest of the board to serve the shareholders and can be hired and fired at any time, just like any other employee.

He was not in any other sense of the word, in the “billionaire class” or the “owner class”. He was literally a worker, paid a salary to do a job.

So then killing anyone who works at UHC is justifiable in your eyes? They have thousands of employees who all work together to deny claims.

And again, my point was that calling him part of the billionaire class was, factually and conceptually, utter horseshit. Unless you think everyone who works at any for profit company is by extension part of the billionaire class, because they help that company operate?

Just keep ironing out those brain wrinkles buddy. Smoother the better.

This is such a stupid fucking comment. The guy he killed was worth like $30 million. Do you know what the difference between $30 million and $1 Billion is? It’s about $1 billion dollars. You sound like an idiot and clearly have no idea what you’re talking about.

The guy he murdered in cold blood wasn’t a billionaire

u/MSBeatles Jan 09 '25

He was a mass murderer though so we'll take it

Nonsense. They provide a great deal of societal damage.

Way to take a basic societal injustice and turn it into a libs vs maga straw man.

Hasn’t had a decent idea since he was in college. All of these people are riding on one random success they had early in life.

u/devin241 Jan 08 '25

His decent idea was also based around rating the physical appearance of his female classmates so it's not like he every really did anything good.

u/MiniMouse8 Jan 09 '25

His goal wasn't to do "something good" it was to do something successful. And I suspect not only are you unsuccessful, but I strongly doubt you are involved with charity work or any form of "doing good".

u/devin241 Jan 09 '25

Stop huffing billionaires farts and projecting your insecurities onto people you have never met.

"Hasn’t had a decent idea since he was in college"

Didn't have a decent idea in college either, but your point remains accurate.

u/Drabulous_770 Jan 08 '25

False. They provide suffering.

u/UristBronzebelly Jan 08 '25

They create the companies that provide the services you and billions of others use everyday.

u/fuweike Jan 08 '25

/u/terriblespellr provides nothing

Not a very good argument, is it?

Do you ever use a smartphone or computer? Do you use amazon.com, modern medicine, drive a car, use air conditioning?

I am thankful for the contributions of billionaires. They have drastically improved yours and my quality of life.

Nice “tu quoque” fallacy

Not a very good argument, is it?

The world is not black and white. You can simultaneously reap the benefits while condoning the actions that brought them about. Billionaires do it everyday by subverting the law

I am thankful for the contributions of engineers, scientists, economists, doctors, and researchers. Ya know, the little guys putting in work. Not the source that cut them a check

How much are you getting paid for this?

u/OO0OO0OO0OO0OO0OO Jan 09 '25

Almost definitely nothing, which is sadder than any dollar amount.

u/DogtorPepper Jan 08 '25

How do you know that?
