The brittleness of white billionaires

Billionaires should not exist, by any means necessary.
Well, not by any means. The correct path is to work towards erasing the foundations for their existence. Killing all billionaires won't solve the problem, but working towards Socialism will.
But socialism creates a Person that is much bigger than a Billionare. Dictatorship and other forms
Socialism is about who owns and operates the company, the workers themselves. That way their surplus labor value isn't being stolen by some lazy douche who doesn't do the work.
No? What are you talking about?
@fyzzlefry @Confidant6198 I think that if their wealth and power can be controlled and limited somehow its mostly fine but the danger comes when their power gets out of hand and they go insane. I'm more chill with Bill Gates than musk is what I'm saying
It's still the result of robbing the working class, and concentrated wealth like that is bad for everyone (even the billionaires).
@owenfromcanada What you just said about wealth being bad for the billionaires I completely agree with.
By some insane amount of chance and luck a few years ago I met a highschool teacher of Mark Zuckerberg. When they told me that, I asked them if he ever stood out or was wired in some way. Apparently he was just a normal kid, probably with somewhat wealthy parents but I really think all that money turned him from a normal privacy-respecting human being into an institution controlling vast wealth with no morals. All that money changes you as a person.About robbing from the working class, I hear what your saying but if a government can effectively implement a progressive tax targeting them and distribute that money through various programs then I'd say much of that issue is resolved. Passing laws that give more power to unions would also help.
