    I don’t really think anyone “deserves” to die. I think people should be allowed to live if there is another way to stop them from harming others. I wish dictators dead but only because there seems to be no other way to stop them. I’d settle for them being imprisoned or just removed from power

    You’re as bad as the billionaires if you entertain the thought, luckily you’re just powerless to put it into action.

    Nobody needs to die to fix the issue. They just need to be held accountable for the things they do instead of being enabled by the system that’s supposed to keep them in check.

    If one billionaire went to prison and lost their wealth, the rest would fall in line immediately.

    Billionaire is a role. They don’t deserve to die. The role deserves to be abolished

      Peter Thiel needs to go. These people do not go quietly or ever stop plotting and fucking around. They need severe rehabillitation where they are forced to learn they arent shit and the masses need to be released upon them to help them find their place.

      He cannot be saved, he is too broken and stupid

    what’s the point of making a brand new account for this?

    also nobody “deserves” to die. some people just leave the world a better place than they made it.

    I don’t think you can be a billionaire and be a good person. It is 100% true that if someone is that rich, and they tell you it’s from hard work, you should ask them whose, because no one gets that rich dealing fairly. Someone is getting rung out. A lot of someones. Do they all deserve to die? Hard to say for sure, but I see little to suggest keeping them alive is a wise decision, they rarely have much value to society beyond money at that point, and they’ve spent all of their humanity getting rich, so it’s not like it’s homicide ethically, even if it legally is. Still, I’m open to the hypothesis that there’s a human soul left in some of them, and if the evidence can be provided for such I’m eager to see it.

    They do not need to die but they need all their wealth and assets stripped from them. And none of that tax the rich bullshit, there should be no billionaires.

      They need to have their wealth and assets stripped from them. Taxes still allows them to extract wealth from the working class.

    Everybody deserves a life of happiness, decency, and respect. Even billionaires. Their existence is problematic as it is predicated on violence. Against other people, against ecosystems, and against society. They should have a chance to rehabilitate. To show that they understand that the way they have done things is wrong and causes harm. They should work to mitigate that harm.

    And if they can’t or won’t, then yes.

      Impalement needs to start being dangled. We dont have infinite resources like them to see they are defanged. Its like life on a farm, surely, they will understand the analogy
