You and me baby aint nothing but mamals, so lets lead a revolution like on discovery channel
This song has to be taken in the context of its time. You see, discovery channel used to air documentaries and animal shows.
Hehe I like you
like and share if u would beat a billionare with a metal pole
I’d use a thin bamboo stick first, that shit leaves a stinging burn sensation on the skin
Did you know, chimps don’t have remote killing drones, armored vehicles, or nuclear weapons.
Well human do, and its usually not the average person that have posession of those things.
Average military pay is like 2100/month so I guess if the dudes in charge of the nukes/drones/tanks decide to stop getting cucked by business interests it would probably be fine.
Or decide not to kill their relatives. Like in previous revolutions ;)
That doesn’t always happen, look at the massacres in South Korea before the end of the dictatorship.
The numbers on wikipedia are lower than actual numbers as questioning them could literally get you executed until the 90s. For example the official number for the Gwangju uprising is 165, but the city recorded an extra 2300 deaths above historical averages for May. That doesn’t include thousands who were arrested, many of whom sentenced to death.
The government ordered the soldiers to shoot the protesters, and they did, and hardly anyone knows about it today.
Indonesia is also worth looking at.
If anyone would like the actual article:
Every healthy economy has a robust guillotine maintenance capability.
If I had the opportunity for some street justice on a billionaire I wouldnt fucking hesitate. That said, it would change jack shit. His wealth just passes to the next asshole.
It would change things if it becomes systemic. If they learn to be scared of being a billionaire, maybe they’d be less likely to want to become one.
I think they’d just hire more security. They have the money for it.
Edit: I agree with your sentiment though
It is enough to have one person doing the inside job, but this will escalate too and… welcome to modern Russia
In a hypothetical world where billionaires cannot go outside a security perimeter for fear of their lives, how soon would we see people refusing the inheritance or donating massive portions?
You just assume that everyone rich would seem rich. If i got billions noone would know. Not everyone needs gargantuan houses and excessively expensive cars and yachts. I would still live in a moderatly tiny house because i don’t like housework AND don’t like strangers in my house doing that. In fact i just had billions. Nothing in my life would change. I’d be safe in your world 😁
Also what for? To show others i have money? So i could never ever trust a person again? Not everyone wants to be a rockstar. Only those whose personalities are so undeveloped that they need the constant ego-strokes from random strangers to even feel something. I just feel pity for jokes like elon musk.
True, but you’d need to really stay under the radar in such a world. Any point of contact where someone else knows you have that money would put you at risk. And those can be generated just by getting the money in the first place.
For the record I think it would be a terrible world. Historically, mob violence often kills innocent people, all it would take would be an accusation. And one person’s poverty is another person’s wealth. They wouldn’t exactly stop to ask about the economically defined classes. It would be more like, “Dave got a luxury car, I wonder how much money he’s hiding…”
And also, I think I would be someone giving it away as fast as possible. I’m like you, after a couple creature comforts and securing the rest of my life, there’s no more need for the money. It’s not like I can take it with me.
Totally right. Would be a horrible world. But for many it already is. Guess it’s reciprocal to your net worth. And it’s also no wonder people yearn for a violent solution. No sensible, human solution is possible. Billionaires don’t go away due to words.
Also yes. I make sure the tiny circle i call family is safe and sound and doesn’t need to worry about a number in some bank, but besides… I love boats yes, admittedly. But even with a gifted yacht i wouldn’t know what to do with it. A house on the water? I know people who e. G. drive fancy poser-cars. And when i ask them what makes this car so great, it usually comes down to… "errr because it’s (insert brand) ". And, of course, it’s brands that EVERYONE know is expensive. That’s the only reason. They wouldn’t pay the same for a brand noone even knows how expensive that is. It’s not the looks, not the features, not the power, not the feeling when driving, it’s the fucking price-tag.
But i also know the other kind. If you’d meet them on the street you would ask if they need a dollar or some food. But they’re more rare.
Thing is, there’s no way I could become a billionaire. If I were amassing money that quickly, it would be because I wasn’t paying my people enough.
The difference between billionaires and the rest of us is that we see that as a problem, they see it as the system working.
Can he trust his cook if it’s a brown person? 🤮
Bezos might nuke us
Naw. He can’t afford to lose cheap labor
lose
cheapchimp labor.Once they have AI bots it’s game over.
This is honestly the reason why I don’t think we can achieve a successful uprising anymore. Probably not a nuke, but drones definitely could and would be used to tear through even the largest of mobs if they formed today. Marie Antoinette would be happily eating her cake watching her people get mowed down by autonomous turrets if the French revolution happened today.
IMO we are probably on the brink of the last possible society that can on a technical level. I would say, nukes, and even drone bombs etc… are unlikely to be utilized, simply due to collateral damage, infrastructure damage etc…
However, things like the boston dynamics spot etc… We’re probably a decade away from when 1 person can control an army of perfectly loyal soldiers.
Unless they’re maintaining the software themselves, there’s no such thing as perfectly loyal. In the past the revolutionaries needed to capture the armory, now they need to capture / subvert the servers / programmers.
It’s true… but with all things it’s a matter of quantity of people you need to be loyal… IE one commander who agrees with the cause, vs 100 soldiers that could talk about it.
Plus, it’s far easier to grow a concience on the field looking in the eyes of the children you are murdering, vs sitting in a computer or robot lab having no “need to know” what these robots do when they leave your office
Well we’re obviously in the right place for that
Oh shit this just got a lot more cyberpunk lol. Now I’m picturing Boston Dynamics robots being hacked by anti-fascist black hats…
If it’s got that kind of capability, it can be hacked.
If it comes to that, which hopefully it doesn’t, we should remember lessons from Vietnam and Iraq. The US Military might be massively overpowered, but it can still struggle against a well-organized insurgency.
Naw it’s white folk that want to get their magic cards
It’s alright, given the current performance of Blue Origin it’ll take him a decade or two to get the missile working.
to get the missile working
If you know what I mean…
Not enough HGH in the world…
Time to return to monk
Imagine how good one would be off if we had just 1 or 2 million in the bank… apples would be like 5 bucks each but it would be nice for a good month. But anyway like how do we get say 500 bucks a week and they get 20,000? Or 3,000,000? Like how does that even make sense to anyone?
meRitOcRAcY, they wOrKed sO HaRd

How can a primate hoard resources? They have no storage methods
Hoarding bananas
Where?! In his house? The banana shack? Are they just in a pile that he sits on like a dragon? Who guards his pile while he goes to take a shit?
These days, they usually use a variety of financial instruments distributed across a wide variety of accounts in tax havens.
