No no, eat the rich. It's a much wider net that includes the Epstein Class without missing the other bastards. And if we eat a few hypothetically good ones along the way, the good we can do by redistributing their wealth is an end that absolutely justifies the means. Class warfare is still a war, there's gonna be some collateral damage.
Action precedes motivation.
They're not mutually exclusive eh?
And lets be real.. Eat the Rich isn't an actionable thing. Like metaphorically yes. But realistically how do you make it happen?
I'm calling for these people to be tried in front of a court and judicially put to death. This would set a legal precedent for 'Eating the Rich.'
While "eat the rich" is a metaphor, I'm not above a literal interpretation. 250°F for about 12-18 hours depending on how big a bastard we're talking about.
I'm not saying you're weak but: https://dutchreview.com/culture/dutch-history-crowds-ate-prime-minister/
No I literally want to take a bite out of a rich person.
There will never be a legal precedent for eliminating class "eating the rich" as long as the wealthy control the judicial system. The wealthy overwhelmingly use their wealth to influence politics and law, this can be shown simply by looking at the Oval Office.
And no, the answer isn't just vote harder. That will require education which is controlled by, and you may have a hard time believing this, the wealthy. That doesn't mean that there aren't solutions, there are actually probably many solutions. Community action and organization is definitely one piece of the puzzle. Finding ways to educate people outside of the traditional systems (without abandoning empiricism) might be another. But pretending the state that is actively harming you and protecting the "Epstein class" isn't one of them.
Less chance of happening than simply eating all the rich.
That is ridiculous.
