I’m feeling a lot of that in this thread as far a lack of empathy goes.
We all act as if we’re experts on what it takes to become a billionaire and are confident enough in our knowledge to the point that some people here are actually ok with murder because they think they know enough to justify it.
Just one, possibly shitty, example: Bezos’ ex wife. Did she do anything wrong to people? Bezos more than likely did, but as far as I can tell the worst thing she did was be married to him. She’s a billionaire now. Do we murder her? Is that really justified?
Personally I’d much rather have them all stripped of their wealth and made to live like the rest of us. Their endless quest for more and more wealth would leave them distraught if it was all taken away. Murder is not only wrong, but too quick of a thing especially if you truly hate these people.
Is there a point where someone who is born human is beyond humanity? Where their depravity and lack of empathy no longer links them to actual society?

Yes we do. It’s about sending a message to all billionaires. Hoard and you die.
It’s more of a line in the sand or a gradient than a hard point of “pass this and you’re not human anymore”.
Crimes against humanity and warcrimes meet the thresh in my mind.
I’d shoot someone like Al-Assad myself and I doubt I’d be very disturbed by it.
