Lets use it only on citizens who are billionaires to make sure they remain on their best behavior.
Larry Ellison is one of the biggest pieces of shit and Oracle can go fuck themselves.
A symptom of believing they are better than others.
Want in resin pin form.
Who’s watching the billionaires?
Usual a few hundred who blow the whistle after the billionaire is dead.
They’ve heard what happens to formerly-live whistle blowers.
This guy needs more luigi in his life
ORACLE - One Rich Asshole Called Larry Ellison
We don’t need citizens to be on their best behavior, we need millionaires and billionaires to be on their best behavior.
This is their best behaviour.
Fascist fuck
And by “citizens” you mean slaves.
On coins, on stamps, on the covers of books, on banners, on posters, and on the wrappings of a cigarette Packet – [Big Brother was] everywhere. Always the eyes watching you and the voice enveloping you. Asleep or awake, working or eating, indoors or out of doors, in the bath or in bed – no escape. Nothing was your own except the few cubic centimetres inside your skull.
– George Orwell, Nineteen-Eighty-Four
Should work pretty good if the IRS uses it for tax audits.
Hypothetically, if Larry was eaten, would other billionaires be on their best behavior and stop positing fascist control mechanisms?
That’s a testable hypothesis.
You go right ahead. I’m not eating any of those assholes. They’re only held together by hatred and bitterness. I’d assume the taste would be influenced by that.
Think of it more like medicine - taste isn’t what you’re after, but the effect it has.
But we still don’t have to eat the fuckers. Just feed them to the swine, or something.
Compost the rich!
Nope. All their egos wouldn’t allow them to believe that anybody would ever do anything to THEM.
Well then why has Elon been wearing his son like body armor all of the sudden since the United Healthcare asshole got got?
By all accounts, Larry is a piece of shit.
Do not fall into the trap of anthropomorphising Larry Ellison. You need to think of Larry Ellison the way you think of a lawnmower. You don’t anthropomorphize your lawnmower, the lawnmower just mows the lawn, you stick your hand in there and it’ll chop it off, the end. You don’t think ‘oh, the lawnmower hates me’ – lawnmower doesn’t give a shit about you, lawnmower can’t hate you. Don’t anthropomorphize the lawnmower. Don’t fall into that trap about Oracle.
— Brian Cantrill
Lawnmowers can be a piece of shit too.
Lawnmowers have the bitchiest machine spirits.
True
Oh yeah, I consider him to be the worst billionaire of em all, even “trumping” that muskrat…
Oracle, the official company of “Look, we’re developer friendly now, our stuff is open source and free to use! Oh, right, you’ve activated my trap card, now pay 10k per every employee of your company because you used our proprietary JDK mwhahahahaha”
I thought it was Oracle, the company of “our products are designed for one purpose alone: to tick boxes on RFPs.”
I mean yeah but that’s far less sinister than all their licensing horseplay
That’s a real nice day to describe what is basically fraud
WAH-hoo!
