Billionaires have taught us to feel for them what they feel for us. They view us an expendable, exploitable commodity. People are suffering. Empathy for them is hard. This is completely avoidable. When society is safe, happy, healthy and prosperous, poverty and violence is almost non-existent.💔
When were safe from the executives and billionaires, we can create that world. Right now they own electricity, housing, food, water, rights and liberty with wealth stolen from our labor. My empathy extends to the victims not the perpetrators. When we're safe from tyranny we won't have poverty.
They can also just say you're not allowed to spend your money on legal adult or queer games at a moment's notice and pull payment processing support from small businesses at a moment's notice.
Agreed. We made the wealth. We made them rich. Working for and handing our checks right back to the ones gouging us. A handful of people own everything. There is nothing else to own, except for us, the largest expendable commodity that just keeps on giving our labor and paychecks. Think about that.
I like the ambiguity of your phrase, “(people are suffering) Empathy for them is hard.” Empathy towards the CEO or CEOs find it hard to have empathy. They both work and are both true. I must admit, when I first saw that story, it made me smile and chuckle a little. Karmic retribution, perhaps? 🤷🏼♀️
Is that not the natural progression of suffering? That the immorality of it all receives "justice"of some kind? Whether its moral or not pain changes you. Pricing people out of the very things that keep us safe, healthy & fed. We are being gouged from existence. We are an expendable commodity.
