Absolutely vicious straw man there. Great job boss. This meme does not do any of the things you claim it does and I've absolutely demonstrated what you just said I didn't. You're obtuse and completely out of touch.
I'm upset that this meme helps the ruling class by pitting the working class against each other. That's it. Your meme does not say, "capital owners", it says, "boss". This is why I'm still questioning your reading comprehension because I've now explained this multiple times.
Anyways. Enjoy your day of posting memes that help the elites that wouldn't exist if the working class wasn't constantly fighting amongst ourselves. I've got to go organize with my coworkers, including my "boss", who are all part of the labor class getting screwed by the elites that you are enabling.
Ok you're the boss. Everything that Marx wrote still applies literally and managers and bosses don't contribute anything to production. Good thing your meme has kicked off such great discussion about how cashiers should see their managers as thieves.
Not sure what kind of privileged life you lead where you can just post memes all day but some of us have to actually live in this capitalist hellscape. We need the entire working class to rise up, not fight amongst each other because the "boss" who's making an extra 50 cents an hour is appropriating everyone's salary. You're out of touch.
Yes I understand Marxist theory. But quoting things written down almost a hundred years ago in a meme without context is like saying that homosexuality is wrong because it's in the Old Testament of the Bible. It doesn't make sense to most of the people reading the meme and it doesn't help the situation. It just pits the working class against each other and makes progressivism look extreme when it's not. Unless of course, you're only doing this to feel superior to people by quoting Marx at them and then saying things like, "educate yourself FFS" so that you can feel like you're better than others. Hopefully that's not the case because you sound completely out of touch.
Maybe you're unable to read then. This meme says your boss is stealing from you. Most people really hate being stolen from. The manager at McDonald's making 50k a year is not stealing from the cashier making 45k. You're pitting the working class against each other and it's not helping. You're completely out of touch
This isn't helping. 90% of people's bosses are also being exploited. It's the millionaires and billionaires who are the problem. Very few of which actually work. They're just shareholders with generational wealth.
Stop trying to get people to hate others who are part of the same exploited working class just because they're slightly less poor.
This OP just has really bad takes sometimes. Like 30 percent of their posts are like this. I can't tell if they're a tankie or just so angry that they post anything no matter how out of touch it is.
You're just being obtuse now and straw manning even harder than before. I don't actually believe you're stupid enough to not understand that I'm not upset with the existence of a number instead of what the number represents in context. I don't actually think you're stupid enough to not understand that concentration of wealth is causing poverty. I don't think you're stupid enough to believe that government spending on an entire nation should be compared to a single person's wealth (Although I agree that the military budget is far too high, it employs millions of people so your comparison is moronic). You're a troll and a capitalist simp. Kindly go fuck yourself.
If there are any actual humans reading this I'm sure they understand what I'm talking about since it was stated quite plainly.
You've been blocked as you're not worth conversing with. Cheers!
There's nothing immoral about a number you dimwit. The immoral part is that one billion AMERICAN DOLLARS (capitalized so you understand that numbers tend have labels attached to them that make them mean something different depending on the label) represents an amount of resources that no person needs in even a hundred lifetimes.
Humanity is generating enough resources for every person on the planet to be fed, housed, provided healthcare and have extra for non necessities. So why are children still starving to death? Why are people homeless and without healthcare? Why are people working for slave wages for 80 hours a week when all of these resources exist with plenty to go around? It's because the richest people have concentrated this wealth for themselves even though they could never use it all.
It doesn't matter how many people like Taylor Swift's music or how many one dollar things Jeff Bezos has used those making slave wages to create for five cents. That amount of money should not ever be in the hands of one individual. Or in this case the hundreds of billionaires who control the resources that were generated by the billions of people on this planet that actually create those resources. You've been brainwashed into thinking that it's normal but it is a crime against humanity.
Your final statement is the most ignorant of all. It doesn't matter where billionaires live if they're not able to exist. Force them to share the resources that they have extorted from the people who created that wealth or relieve them of their heads. They are criminals and should be treated as such.
Cool. Please explain how it's possible for someone to work hard enough to deserve 1000 years worth of earning 1 million dollars a year. That's 1 billion dollars. No one deserves that kind of money. Period. If you work hard and are very talented you should earn more than others. Fine. A billion dollars though? Not possible to work that hard or be that talented.
Every billionaire's priority should be to not be a billionaire anymore. She's doing a great job so far both trying to get to that goal and being an example of what we should expect from these people.
As a side note it should not even be up to them. Billionaires should be taxed enough that it's not possible to be a billionaire but in the absence of an effective government I'm glad she's doing this instead.
