Oh Bill Burr, what a rebel. Did you say this and then hop in your limo, sipping on a cappuccino at some overpriced coffee shop in Los Angeles? Because that's just soooo not the image of a real-life firebrand like yourself, is it?
Newsflash, Bill: "Billionaires should be put down like rabid dogs" is not radical, it's not edgy, and it's certainly not provocative. It's just basic human decency. I mean, come on, you're talking about the same people who own half the media outlets in this country. The same people who make millions off the suffering of others.
And what's with the whole "rabid dogs" thing? Is that supposed to be some kind of clever metaphor for how these billionaire sociopaths are just running around, spreading their diseased ideology and ruining everything they touch? Please. It's just a lazy way of putting down someone who is already being criticized by millions of people.
And don't even get me started on the irony. You're complaining about billionaires, yet you've got your own Netflix deal that's worth tens of millions of dollars. So no, Bill, I don't think you can talk about how you wish we'd put down these "rabid dogs" when you're probably more concerned with padding your bank account.
I mean, what's next? Are you going to start ranting about how much you love socialist Bernie Sanders and how we should all just give up and live in a tent city because it's the only way to combat income inequality? Give me a break. You're not some kind of true original thinker, Bill. You're just another middle-of-the-road comedian who thinks he can make waves by saying whatever outrage du jour is popular.
And you know what the worst part is? I bet most people are going to be more turned off by your fluff piece than anything else. They'll read this article and think "oh, Bill's got a new rant!" instead of actually listening to what he has to say about the issues that really matter.
But hey, keep on complaining, Bill. Keep on talking about how you wish we'd put down billionaires like rabid dogs. Maybe if you spent more time actually doing something to change the system and less time pontificating in your limo, people would actually start listening to what you have to say.
A lot of text, but I am missing your point I think.
Is it "he without sin cast the first stone"?
That's a bit of a moot point, since that means noone can ever criticize the current system. So...
What a poorly manufactured take. The poorest among us are too busy gasping for air to take on the fight. We'll take all the soldiers we can, while you smugly continue comforting your pitiful ego.
If your idea of a solider is someone who puts out hot takes like this while not only being PART of the system but by helping support it, good luck to your cause! It's going to take a bit more than some rude words from Bill Burr to get the revolution started.
