No no, I agree we should start with the billionaires or possible trillionaires by time we actually do something.

Millionaires aren't really the problem, billionaires are.

Bitch even if we came for the millionaires, that would hardly be the “first” group anyone came for. Y’all been coming for the women, gays, Latinos, atheists, Arabs and trans folk as long as can I can fuckin remember.

Except the "They" who comes for people is the millionaires.

First they came for the millionaires and distributed their wealth equally and I said nothing because I wasn't a millionaire.
Then they came for the abled bodies and made public spaces as inclusive as possible and I said nothing because I didn't notice.
Then they came for cis men and abolished the nuclear family and I said nothing because I'm not married so I didn't care.
And when they smashed white supremacy, there was no one left to defend me.

They are serious. If you suggest any constraint to oligarchist/corporatist supremacism, that makes you the nazi. See, first you will ask the arguably deplorable millionaires to pay their fair share, but because you are a nazi, you will then tax the poor middle class jews.

Millionaires can stay. I'm more angry about the billionaires and the soon to be trillionaires.

Well the headline is satire. The sign likely not. It shows how crazy people are that you don't know anymore

It's real. It was from a protest in Washington State, USA. The legislature was voting on a tax on millionaires.

Pretty sure this is about the millionaires tax in Washington State, the first income tax passed in the state ever. The big argument against it is that it'll set the precedence of an income tax being legal by the state constitution, and then they'll start lowering the minimum income to tax everyone. Oh no, a progressive tax system!

How can you tell that they are a boomer at heart?

They talk about millionaires as the rich.

She's likely a hundredaire who will one day be a billionaire.

And then what? They're coming for your low middle class ass? They already have you! You're drowning in debt with diabetes from the HFCS they refuse to outlaw and the healthcare you can't afford praising a serial rapist that just made gas prices sky rocket by bombing a country so your stupid ass will forget about the evidence that proves he's a habitual sex predator.

Oh please, please let's do that. That would legitimately be fantastic. Not just millionaires though, because enough of them could've just worked hard to get there. Once you get to the like hundreds of millions or billions, then those people don't deserve it.

That's a waste of perfectly nutritious millionaires.

If only

First they came for the millionaires and I laughed and laughed and laughed

If only they would...

First they took from people who had so much they couldn't spend it in a thousand lifetimes - The Billionaire Genocide

The person holding the sign looks like they could be/could be related to Robert Ritchie

It's not satire, it's weaponized absurdity.

No this sheer audacity and appropriation... On point after Karens took over BLM.
