ramble

I think it’s so weird that most billionaires have such dogshit takes about philosophy and humanity and what a hope for the future should be.

They have such small dick energy.

And like, you can have big dick energy even if you don’t have a penis. This is not an "attack" on their masculinity or lack or too muchness of it all. That’s a whole other piece of writing, and includes wonderings about botched cosmetic surgeries, side-effects of recreational drug use when the drugs are powerful and intended for medical usage, and considerations of mental deterioration and age limits for some jobs and activities. No. This is me considering the effect billionaires are having on the world and the way they seem driven to prove that "billionaires shouldn’t exist"-is true

They are walking examples of the benefit of generational wealth.

Yet they want to swing their dicks and pretend that if they didn’t have money to start with, they would have still been just as successful and amazing and they would have the same awesome first rate staff who are actually making the magic happen.

Like, "No, dude. For one, if you received loans, they were given to you on the basis of your family’s name. Even if someone didn’t co-sign the loan for you, the loan officer realized that if your loan went bad, your mommy or daddy would step in to keep you from going to jail. Two, you were afforded the best education available before you were even able to open your eyes. You had the best food, the best care, the best schooling–you have never felt an ounce of need in your entire life. You have only known wants. And finally, if you were just some schlub from a nameless family who didn’t have the money or connections that you do, would you know where to go or who to talk with to make things happen? Probably not."

You’re a nepo baby. If you’re not a turd about it, there’s nothing to feel ashamed about. Just be for fucking real.

No, Mr. 400 Billion Dollar Human Centipede Man, you did not pull yourself up by your bootstraps.

You never had to pull yourself up at all.

Your entire life has been a one-way journey up a ramp of success. You have only had to want something before you would have it.

And as a result, you have turned into a terrible person.

And like, it’s not even all the murder and rape charges they spend massive amounts of money to cover up. It’s not that there’s an island out there somewhere where sex trafficked children and adults are being forced to service ultra-rich people. (And how terrible is that??? The idea of people being so rich they can pick and choose their victims, and someone you know could disappear someday. Never to be seen again. Spending the whole rest of their life forced into doing the most degrading acts. Never to be let go free because loose lips sink ships.) It’s not how we’re forced to know about their cheating and their divorces and their awful fashion sense when they’re cruising.

No. All that is the shit that belongs in serious news articles and courtroom drama blogs.

The reason I have to side-eye billionaires is because that amount of money seems to have a serious detrimental effect on their mental cognition:

• They can’t look at the suffering of children and feel anything. Because they are dead inside.
• During a pandemic they seriously considered that the lives of children and the elderly were meaningless. As long as the workers could keep working, there would be no mental impact if the workers’ children and parents died. There could even be a net positive because then they could work more overtime.
• They can’t seem to grasp what "Eat the rich" means, and what it could come to mean if they keep pushing on everyone’s last nerve.

I don’t know at what point a billionaire ceases to be a human being. I mean, legally speaking, corporations are people now. So on that track, billionaires could become not people.

And the laws are always stricter for not-people.

Now people are sharing tweets and posts of people wah-wah’ing that they voted for EVIL Shit! not to lose their $401Ks.

"If we would have known that he was serious about every terrible awful thing he was saying he was going to do, we wouldn’t have voted for him."–Non-billionaire chumps are learning regret.

They’re still racist, sexist, xenophobic, fatphobic, homophobic, and transphobic as fuck, but they’re learning that the only person that doesn’t care about the price of things is someone that’s rich. And they’re not rich.

I think it’s wild how nationalists have embraced cult life. To the point that none of them could clearly see what was going to happen and how it would effect them, their beliefs, and their ability to safely practice their beliefs.

For reals: the 90s and 2000s was the Golden Age of white nationalism.

It had gotten to the point that liberals were like "I don’t agree with this person’s point of views, but as long as they’re not losing their shit in public, I don’t care what the fuck they do as long as they do it out of my sight."

Like, they were marrying CHILDREN!

We’re all screaming about "The poor childbrides of Some Other Country need to be saved!" And the whole time there was like 47 states where it was legal to marry a child as long as you had permission from a parent or guardian.

Adults can STILL marry children RIGHT NOW. And those children can’t get divorces until they’re 18 because minors can’t sign legal paperwork.

And nobody knew that shit was happening. Those dudes were out there marrying kids and it was a non-issue because everyone else just assumed kid marrying was something that only happened in backward countries.

And like, those marriages could have still kept happening undisturbed and unnoticed if white nationalists hadn’t blown up their own spot.

They could have lived like a separate society, with their own cops and FBI agents, and hidden operatives in the military and all walks of everyday life. They could have kept marrying children and breeding their master race. They could have decorated the interiors of their houses like something out of a horror movie. And nobody would have given a fuck.

But now… Now they’re on the radar of everyone. People that never had an opinion before are suddenly scrambling to say that No, they are not racist or phobic.

And that dude quietly standing in the corner, suddenly has to choose whether he stays in the shadows living a comfortable life, or if he steps forward and reveals his full body swastika motif. And once he reveals himself in all his raw oofishness, that’s it.

And billionaires are laughing. Because they once again got the poor to fight amongst themselves while they swept through and snatched every dollar they could get a hold of.

Only the billionaires of today are dumb as fuck. They inherited their wealth, and as a result they have never lived like a normal person. They have no frame of reference, and that’s why they’re fucking up everything they touch.

My dude, the main desires of a human being are:

• nutritious and tasty food
• clean water
• comfortable shelter
• quality clothing
• good health
• entertainment

That’s it.

Sure, there’s a sense of FOMO and disgust when influencers show off grotesque displays of wealth, but most people just want to see all that stuff. They’re perfectly happy not experiencing it for themselves as long as they have food to eat, a place to live, and something to watch on TV.

And billionaires are trying to take all that away from people. They are instilling sensations of fear and dread. Tormenting people for no reason.

And they think they’re smart!

"Well, I have 20 bodyguards that accompany me at all times. That one’s the one that wipes my ass dry after I use the bidet." And for some reason I read that out loud in a Country Fried Chicken-Daniel Craig from "Knives Out" voice. But you get the point.

They are out of touch with reality. To the point that they are unable to grasp that other people are as smart as or even smarter than they are.

So they swing their tiny dick energy around and expect everyone to bow down before them because there’s nothing they can do. They are so awesome and great that none of the poors could ever make them feel an ounce of regret much less fear.

Because money can buy first-rate security and 20 bodyguards and they don’t have anyone they actually love and couldn’t survive losing.

But their bodyguards do. Their employees do. Everyone around them and who facilitates them in their evil does.

Those people have houses and cars and stores and factories and social lives. Things they would not want to lose.

There’s a reason why the cops in the "Watchmen" TV series wear masks and never tell anyone that they’re cops.

Because you can’t be on the job 24/7.

A billionaire is always a billionaire. But his employees want and need to have everyday lives. Because they’re human beings. And human beings have connections with other people, with pets, with the environment, and with the world.

We, as people, don’t want to breathe in thick smoke instead of fresh air. We want to enjoy national parks and share public spaces without feeling unsafe. We want public bathrooms and benches people can sit on. We want clean beaches and non-poisoned seafood. We want kids to play sports and we don’t want to freak out because some adults want there to be genital inspections before the kids can play.

We want solar and hydro and wind energy, and we want it to be cheap and plentiful. We want to be able to fly to another state and have a vacation, and have it be an affordable trip that doesn’t result in a tragic plane crash. We want police officers that are trained and safe to be around the public.

There are so many problems, and people see them and want them to be fixed. Because as a species, human beings want to connect together and get along with each other. We feel good when we make someone else happy.

And billionaires don’t. Because they see themselves as better than human? Because their lack of connections with real life has given them brain damage?

Who knows why billionaires are the way they are. But it’s bad for the world and everything on it.
