@vicfroh #altText4you screenshot of a threads post by stevens_bad_advice:
"Fun Fact, if billionaires got shot as often as school children, we'd run out of billionaires in 2 months."
There's a picture of Nintendo's Luigi (not part of the threads post)
@vicfroh There's nearly a thousand of them, and, according to gunviolencearchive.org, schoolchildren are killed at a rate of "only" about one a day in the US, so 3 years.
@vicfroh This is encouraging, I feel the frequency of explicitly revolutionary toned snarky memes is increasing. It's a good sign.
@vicfroh And the world would be a better place for it.

@vicfroh if that's the rule then it would create an incentive for them to ensure that school children aren't being shot. hmmmm. win/win?

who says billionaires won't cooperate. just need the right motivation.

@vicfroh
I see no flaws in this proposal.
@vicfroh But if we run out of billionaires, who's gonna sell those guns to the shooters?

@vicfroh

I'd stuff the ballot box, if this were on the Ballot.

@vicfroh to make sure you don't create more billionaires you should distribute the money evenly among the 10000 poorest people
@vicfroh do the billions go whoosh-poof? wouldn't some other people get those billions and become, urmm... billionaires?
@TribeofMa @vicfroh Yeah, that would have to go in public transport, education and public spaces.
@richlv @vicfroh I get that... But shooting them would activate a bunch of heirs.
@TribeofMa @vicfroh "No heirs > 10 millions" or something :)
@richlv @vicfroh oh, ok then... 😉
@vicfroh Billionaires are all about "optimizing processes," so I'm sure they could help us finish that job even faster.
@vicfroh
Is there a GoFundMe for this?
@vicfroh to me, this says a lot more about how there are so many more children than billionaires than about the frequency of shootings. It is funny though
