Strange how a man who stands to make billions more from this, thinks all those opposed to it are wrong.
Guessing it’s due to his vast and deep knowledge of the subject, after long and careful scientific and sociologic research.

He took his plastic wife's advice and got botox and now he can't move his fucking mouth correctly.
These creatures can't even figure out how to cosplay as fully formed human beings.
He's already wrong. If only he were dead.
Then who'd be dead wrong?
"Billionaire with vested interest in AI &Trump says there's no problems with billionares, AI & Trump"
Why the fuck even ask him?
Because people for some reason think greedy people have some authority outside of their own greed. Hint: they don't!
People like this bastard should be hanging
I don't think we should hang him but I do think we should hang his companies.
It would be more satisfying to me to see him have to start from the bottom.
from multiple ropes in multiple pieces.
okay maybe i'm going a bit far haha
Grew up wealthy, borrowed $250k ($550k in today's money) from his family to start Amazon, has so much money now that money has ceased to have meaning. This asshole has never lived a normal life and yet he thinks he knows what kind of problems people are facing today.
Hate how this greedy ghouls are constantly amplified by news organizations as "experts" and "thought leaders".
He should probably stay away from words like "dead" while defending Trump. Twenty-two people linked to Epstein, and therefore Trump, have died under mysterious circumstances, not to mention Trump buddy Epstein himself.
He especially shouldn't mention the word guillotine.
Nothing will change until they fear for their lives.
Fear isn't enough. The whole billionaire class should be culled from society.
Just wanted to throw down the reminder that health insurance companies, for a brief moment, didn't deny nearly as many claims.
Sometimes violence is the answer.
IMO capital punishment is only violence if it's done to the working class. If a judge and jury, after due process, sentences a billionaire to death that is justice.
Nothing will change until we end their lives.
Ask guy for thoughts about critics against thing he's profiting from.
He responds with "they're wrong."
Unrelatable dickhead expresses an opinion, promptly ignored.
Please nobody ignore him. Everyone needs to hear this -and be enraged.
More like makes me fantasize about using his chrome dome to set an Amazon data center on fire like burning ants with a magnifying glass
Sadly the inescapable physical truth of convex vs concave lensing still relentlessly holds its tenacious grip on reality, despite the billions of dollars these folks have accumulated they have still, thus far, been unable to alter that particular aspect of reality.
The only solution I can offer for Jeff Bezos is to begin forming his skull inwards somewhat so that any captured light can reach a proper focusing point. As as astronomer with some experience with such reflective optical surfaces, I'd be happy to begin the grinding and polishing process for you at any time, I'll just need you to hold him still while I work. It's a very precise process.
I assume his head is mostly thick skull surrounding empty space anyway, so I think there should be little harm done.
just make the light source more concave than his head is convex!
maybe. or just use a [REDACTED]
A high power laser? That feels like it might work. Perhaps we should start experimenting on Jeff Bezos's head to see what works best.
A high power something yeah
promptly ignored.
That's what the oligarchs want...
He has your money, and if you want it now vote JG Wentworth 2028.
Because unless we take our money back, they're just gonna fucking keep it.
Edit:
Because people might not know that commercial:

Point being that's the only thing we should say to oligarchs, if we say nothing they win
So every time you see a billionaire, say "bitch, where's my money".
Don't let them talk about anything besides they have our money.
We're past the point of redistribution. We need to take it out of their hides as well.
“The top 1% of taxpayers pay about 40% of all the tax revenue, and the bottom half pay 3%,” Bezos said. “I don’t think it should be 3%. I think it should be zero.”
“People sometimes say that, you know, I don’t pay taxes. Not true. I pay billions of dollars in taxes,”
“You could double the taxes I pay, and it’s not going to help that teacher in Queens. I promise you.”
WT-absolute-F? I think he got oxygen-deprived in space.
“You could double the taxes I pay, and it’s not going to help that teacher in Queens. I promise you.”
well, in the USA this is probably true, all the money would be diverted into more military spending or tax breaks for stupid filthy rich people
which is why we need tax money being spent on the communal level. not the federal level. it's the fed gov that spends it on the military, it's the municipality that spends it on schools.
Fair enough, LOL. Just love that it's "oh I pay TONS of taxes, but asking me to pay more in taxes won't help anything."
“You could double the taxes I pay, and it’s not going to help that teacher in Queens. I promise you.”
He promised!
Seriously though, does he think that a) only Bezos of all multibillionaires gets taxed double and b) that wouldn't go along with social policy?
What a dumb wacko, high on sniffing his own farts. Probably partly due to a fawning interviewer.
Dude deserves the Mussolini treatment and nothing short of it.
Too humane. They should suffer for many, many years isolated in a filthy jail cell first
Fair enough.
Personally I think culling the entire Epstein class and dragging their corpses until every major cities' municipal boundary can be seen from space would send a more effective message.
Dip them in liquid nitrogen and christen their yachts before we scuttle them.
Hang them by their feet from a crane and see how many it takes to demolish a data center.
(Gee I wonder why I got banned from reddit)
Billionaires became billionaires by ruining the life of dozens of thousands of people each. They should have plenty of time to regret that before their end, that's my take
Fair enough.
I personally don't think anyone with the capacity to become a billionaire still has a conscience with which to regret or introspect.
Meanwhile based on my reading of history, exiling/imprisoning oligarchs works in their favour in the long run.
And he loves it! In another article (possibly about the same interview) he praised Trump for being so much more assertive in his second term.
edit: oh, you meant actual Mussolini, not Mango Mussolini 😳
I'm calling for him to be summary executed and his corpse dragged through the streets and strung up on live stream in Time Square
CEO said a thing
Alex Jones lookin ass
His face is weird
Damm we got slammed
BOMBSHELL reporting right there
I completely removed myself from Amazon since a few years and I couldn't be happier. Everyone should do this.
Fuck what he says, why the fuck does he look like the bastard child between Santa Claus and Lex Luthor?!
Cuz he's a lizard wearing a mask. Like I've never been into that conspiracy theory... but Hoooo lyyyyy shiiiiit does he look like a fuckin lizard in a mask!
does anybody have any numbers on how many taxes he actually pays?
Yeah that's pretty much the trifecta of doing everything people hate.
