The rich don’t care about the poor.
They don’t see the poor as human enough to hate.
They live in separate bubbles, go to different schools, live in guard gated places, vacation at places only they can afford. By design, the wealthy are segregated from us, and are taught not to empathize with their livestock.
That’s all anyone outside their class are to them, livestock. Management livestock, laborer livestock, homeless (capitalist scarecrows) livestock. Just levels of livestock.
Honestly I think the sociopathy of market capitalism makes it worse, yes worse, than crimes of hatred.
At least someone who hurts or kills you for who you are cares enough about your existence enough to want to hurt you and revel in your pain.
A wealthy capitalist will feed a thousand children lead or deny a thousand claims for necessary surgeries(topical!), and pay the fine if there’s one at all without so much as a glance at your name. A nameless speed bump on the road to GLORIOUS PROFIT!
It’s just business after all 🤑
The banality of evil certainly wasn’t invented by Nazis and it definitely didn’t end with them
As someone who’s been in circles where the question of why we value homeless people and don’t just remove them to make room for people who actually contribute, why yes this is surprisingly real
Besides, from the perspective of the rich, the homeless contribute a deterrent. It’s a billboard warning you that you’ll be homeless if you stop smiling at work.
They don’t want us to die; they just don’t care about us at all. As long as there are enough of us around being obedient little slaves.
They’re heavily invested in AI because they think “enough of us” is a number that can be reduced substantially.
While their goonies work to outlaw abortion and birth control and divorce. What a neat combo pack.
Rich people don’t want people to die … they want poor to stay alive and live as their obedient slaves that serve them.
they want poor who can work to stay alive and live as their obedient slaves that serve them.
Minor clarification.
Exactly, they do want people to die that are of no use to them, as there are limited resources on Earth and anyone not serving them is essentially reducing their size of the share.
limited resources on Earth
That is also what we are all led to believe. If wealth were equally distributed to everyone, everywhere … there would be more than enough food, water and shelter for every living being on the planet. It’s not that the resources are running out, it has more to do with how our economy, wealth and control is distributed. The resources and wealth are held by a few people while everyone else goes without.
Which is the basis of the quote … “Poverty exists not because we cannot feed the poor, but because we cannot satisfy the rich.”
Of course, this is absolutely true right now, but population is growing. What do you think happens with perfectly equal resource distribution but unlimited population growth?
Education and well balanced people.
Education is well known to cause a population to tend to have fewer children. As people become more educated, more capable and more well cared for … they tend to not want to have as many children. Conversely, when people are poorer and less educated, they tend to survive by having more children … it’s our survival instinct because not all the children may survive but enough offspring survive long enough to have lots more children again.
So if you have a planet full of well educated and well off people everywhere, they will have less children and everyone that is alive will all work towards making things better for everyone else. It’s probably a fantasy or a magical utopia that we can never achieve … but we can hope that we can move in that direction.
Those who can’t work are just as important. They’re made to suffer as an example to make sure those who can work never stop working.
rich people need poor people to exist
In which god damn world I would want my slaves to die?
They don’t want the slaves to die, just the ones that aren’t slaves, like the homeless which probably “use” more economic value than they create.
the poors ate his dog 😢🙏
