I know you're joking but I immediately started thinking that. Is Target going to suddenly have totally legit honest LGBTQ stands again now? I have a feeling we're going to have whiplash with all of these corps.

I put my pronouns back on slack today

We don't have to, the government can literally take their money if we collectively decide to. Personally, I think "no billionaires" is a pretty good policy. Once someone's net worth hits $999M, the government takes all their income above that amount, taxes any gifts they receive at 100% of their value, takes all their capital gains, etc.

Yeah lost what? 10% of billions of dollars still leaves them with billions of dollars.

They gambled and we all lost

Why are you suggesting something so kind?

I saw the “trickle down” happening in San Francisco first hand when I got off the Rapid Transit a stop early and emerged in the middle of a cardboard city.

I thought part of the reason was because it's a one time thing? But the oligarchs were against it, which is a great reason to be for it, imo.

still want yo do something to them.

GET IN MAH BELLY

Now. Now is when you get to eat them.

there aren't actually enough of them for all of us to have a bite of meat, so I propose some kind of soup.

true. that's why they need to be killed. t

they need to be punished. we should set up pages to remember which of them collaborated and how. make little shrines when they're punished.

I’ve worked in tech a long time and never have I seen an actual risk model used.

I have had CEOs tell me they don’t like my analysis and there’s gold in them thar bad decision hills, and they don’t care what my numbers say.

I get some schadenfreude watching the disaster unfold, but it usually ends in decent people getting fucked over by management.

They’re venture capitalists they’re obsessed with risk in the sense they believe big risk = big reward and are vain enough to believe they can force several hundred million people to vote against their best interests with some poorly done smoke and mirrors. They forgot most VC ventures are failures because they’re too far up their own asses to see reality anymore

I think what happened was a FOMO moment in which Elon’s contributions worked really, really well in 2024 so everyone else just jumped on that bandwagon.

The rich believe that the endgame is near so they are very ready to take as much power as they can.

He's even considering using three exclamation marks.

They could have chosen to spin off parts of their companies to avoid a forced breakup. They could have chosen to fight back against disinformation during the 2024 election. And they could have chosen to say no to Trump and his mad king decrees. But, they chose to side with the fascists, and that's now the only decision that matters.

The very first thought in my mind when I woke to Trump 2.0, "There goes Lina Khan, our last best hope."

She was set to tear these anti-capitalist monopolies down and get democracy back overseeing the economic system. At least Mamdani snatched her up and she's kicking ass for NYC!

We remember. That didn't happen, though. Tangerine Palpatine shielded them.

You mean bribes for all..... Err I mean legitimate campaign contributions cough cough

So for them it's win-win?

The last Dem presidency gave us Lina Khan who was absolutely tearing it up until Trump fired her

They will if you get off your butt and hold your Dem reps accountable instead of whining on Reddit.
