SAN FRANCISCO — As California struggles with homelessness and healthcare cuts, some activists are taking on an unexpected cause: fighting for billionaires.
About a dozen people took part in the “March for Billionaires” on Saturday morning in San Francisco to raise awareness about the plight of the ultrarich. Although some assumed the event was satire, organizer Derik Kauffman said it was a sincere protest against a potential new tax on the state’s wealthiest residents.
And 10-20 to people showed up to actually protest.
Guys, it’s an ai startup trying to ragebait you for free media coverage. You can stop posting about it.
Financial obesity is an existential threat to any society that tolerates it, and needs to cease being celebrated, rewarded, and positioned as an aspirational goal.
Corporations are the only ‘persons’ which should be subjected to capital punishment, but billionaires should be euthanised through taxation.
Good to know so many will be in one place at the same time…
It’s supposed to be a march for billionaires. I doubt many will show up themselves. The people marching will mostly be bootlickers.
…so the rally should really be called “Simp for Billionaires…”
Well yes, but the organizers were never going to do that.
Careful, he’s watching…
We’ll have him for dinner too.
He can finally meet Charlie in Valhalla.
Hmm so your saying it’s a trap?
Shhhhh don’t tell them
I hear there’s also a Luigi March happening at the same time same place.
Can you imagine? So many billionaires all in one public place?
Imagine if you put them all on an island!
We just had that #EpsteinFiles
(that’s the joke)
Atherton California. Look it up.
I’m proposing a march for guillotines on the same day
Could be at the same place, same time!
Most likely the participants will be poor astroturfers sent on behalf of the billiodogs.
Still would be the symbolic gesture they deserve
It’s all those ceos of saas companies thiel fucked sent to do it
“Vilifying billionaires is popular. Losing them is expensive.”
Certainly, in the same way that failing to catch a bank robber and allowing them to skip town is expensive.
Will they send the butlers and maids in their place?
The billionaires will teleoperate robots for the march.
What if we rage on behalf of the machine?
I liked RATM before they became all woke and political!
This still makes me cackle every time I see it
It’s one of the follow-ups that sends me.
“What machine did you think they were raging against? A dishwasher?”
Every healthy society needs a robust guillotine maintenance and repair workforce.
How long has it been since someone was tarred and feathered?
Be such a shame if a mass shooting happened that day
Does anyone know where to sign up for all these paid protesting gigs? Because I can’t imagine a sane person going to this one voluntarily.
My lawyer suggests I not comment on what can be done with this.
