There is no way disorganized poor people can systematically stomp out the rich who actually protect themselves and their assets properly. There's a universe of difference in the way you and someone whose net worth is a certain amount looks at what they have and what to do with it. That's why some lawyers and security teams get paid ridiculously well - they eliminate any and all threats to the guys writing the checks.

I'm not saying some rich won't die if a revolution of some kind does happen. There are stupid rich people who park it in America and who aren't all that different from say, Donald Trump. But you won't get rid of the ones who have been properly advised.
Ain’t no one richer than a bullet to the head. And there’s no wealth on earth that can’t be reclaimed by the people. Any mother****ing thing can happen. Nuclear weapons can’t be contained. Chemical and biological weapons can’t be contained. Hatred cannot be contained. The more you got the more you got to lose.

Take suicide bombers and mass shooters for example. They’d kill the entire planet if they could. Sooner or later it’s going to be a matter of keeping people from getting to that point psychologically because technology won’t stay in a vacuum. The ability to unleash existential or near existential terror is another thing that can’t be contained.

If these rich people are so clever they’ll know when to surrender because they have to understand that you can’t live in a way that causes that many people to feel that misanthropic and survive. And capitalism, and even just markets in general, are a driving force in the spread of misery. And there’s no economic system based on growth that doesn’t inevitably lead to the same horrific outcome.

A Hasidic synagogue in Brooklyn planned the wedding of a chief rabbi’s grandson with such secrecy it was able to host thousands of maskless celebrants without the city catching on.
I know I know. I’ll get **** for saying the Hasidic community in Brooklyn is comprised of a bunch of ****heads

Covid has really shone a light on how nasty the Hasidic Jewish community really is. I mean they’re off the chain in a very bad way. They were actually BURNING masks and chanting Jewish Lives Matter. I’m gonna hold it there but there’s a lot more wrong with them.

Chinese President Xi Jinping is pushing for a global Covid-19 tracking system using QR codes, to help fast-track international travel and business during the coronavirus pandemic.

Speaking at the virtual G20 leaders' meeting on Saturday, Xi said that to ensure the "smooth functioning" of the world economy during the pandemic, countries needed to coordinate a uniform set of policies and standards, according to state-run news agency Xinhua.
Oh no we can’t have apps on our phones! We need to let people die... that’s the answer.

You know what would be a great app? Downloaded stealthily onto the phones of Covid-deniers, it gives you regular nag screens saying "WEAR A MASK FOOL! PERCENTAGE OF YOU DYING OR CONTRIBUTING TO THE DEATH OF OTHERS NOW X PERCENT AND RISING!"

Then after it reaches 100% a new message: CONGRATULATIONS YOU SELFISH PRICK! YOU JUST PUT X NUMBER MORE IN THE ICU AND CAUSED THE DEATH OF Y PEOPLE. GREAT WORK! WEAR A MASK YOU *******!
