The Billionaires Are Abandoning Humanity - Lemmy.World

Spez talked about this years ago. He wants society to fall so he can rule over what’s left because he thinks he’s superior to all other humans
Dude can’t even run a glorified message board… How the fuck does he think he’s gonna run a post-apocalyptic society?

Thiel has worried that Western civilization had entered a period of long-term stagnation in the 1970s which will continue unless there is a radical shake-up. This stagnation has many dimensions: lower economic growth, fewer world-changing scientific discoveries, and a general cultural malaise.

Imagine looking back at the proud of time where there was literally the most advances in the wildest technology and thinking it’s stagnation. It was from a time period where people remembered refrigeration as new and exciting to the time where your phone has more computing power than the ones that put people on the moon, and it’s in your freaking pocket, and say that technology stagnated.

As for the lower economic growth and the “stagnating” culture, that’s squarely on the shoulders of corporations, and therefore, billionaires.

Steps to become a billionaire:

  • Abandon humanity
  • Step-on children’s smiles
  • Fund a feasibility study on turning poor into fuel
  • Second study to prove those idiots in the first study wrong
  • Replace gym equipment in second home with dogs you can kick and hit for exercise. The dogs must be trained service animals in active service to people who need them. You bankrupt those people at great personal expense and then you buy their dogs for pennies.
  • Lunch
  • Become billionaire
  • Take cool pictures with swords. Don’t show nobody.
  • Abandon humanity

  • A human’s humanity is inversely proportional to the amount of money they have. After a billion, you stop being human and turn into a lizard person. We are quickly approaching the day when a lizard person will evolve into something even weirder once they hit a trillion.
    Money amplifies who you are. There are actually a number of quiet rich people living good lives, though that doesn’t justify the bad ones regardless of their wealth.
