    Ok? Then maybe do that without the murder part??? If you have actual ideas of how to change the system, then do it?

      They’re not going to give up their control willingly, hence the killing them part.

        But you still haven’t refuted my main point. If killing them just creates new billionaires, what does that actually achieve?

          I mean the general idea is we kill them and take their property instead of giving it to their heirs. Killing the billionaires is generally something that occurs as part of the larger revolution and not just a leisurely Sunday activity

            Sure, and that worked when money was a tangible asset rather than a speculative one. It really doesn’t apply in modern times when most money can’t be physically taken.

              Bro what part of a revolution do you not understand. The people saying this stuff are communists and leftists. After a revolution there won’t be stocks left to own or corporations. The whole point of communist revolution is to seize the companies and desolve the capitalist institutions. Surely you understand this no?

              Do you think billionaires actually have billions sitting in banks holy shit. They own assets bruh. That’s what we’d be taking.

          Why not murdering them AND Robin Hood all their shit? At least until the systemic problem that made them billionaires in the first place gets dismantled bit by bit.

          It wouldn’t create new billionaires if you’re also changing the system lol that was my point.

      “Ok, can we do this french revolution without killing the aristocracy? If you have actual ideas of how to change the system, then do it?”

      Maybe an online petition, those always work.
