Because the rich have somehow tricked half the world into thinking they are part of that same smaller class, when in reality they are nowhere close to being such.
Yeah. Plus, Joanne and Cleetus are so sefish and so freaking stupid that they actually believe there's a chance they'll find oil in them there hills one day. God forbid you touch their theoretical oil.
How would you handle a situation where in addition to "eat the rich", people start to say "eat the working class supporters of the rich" or "eat the families of the working class supporters of the rich" or "eat the 'eat the rich' dissenters"?
If you answer "that's never gonna happen," I hope you're right because I hate to say "I told you so."
That cookbook's going to be complicated. Rich white woman is going to be like trying to cook fugu. No no don't slice open the face it's full of botulism.
I'm waiting for you guys to start. Someone take the first bite yo.
You have an unfortunate username for this conversation.
Friendly fire is always a unfortunate possibility.
Your sacrifice for the cause is appreciated comrade.
It’s a humble brag that he’s rich af.
You haven’t memed on Lemmy until you’ve done it sitting on a golden toilet, he says.
That double-crossing jerk!
But does it have a bidet?
I honestly don't think they would taste very good. Full of fat and prescription drugs.
Are you joking? That sounds like an amazing meal.
Fat is flavor buddy
Trust me, the rich do a lot more drugs than just the prescribed ones…
difference to any other industrially produced meat?
...wait, you guys haven't literally been eating the rich? What the fuck?
Where are all the effing serial killers when you actually need them? But nooooooo... We only go after poor white women and children!
Fine but you are bringing the side dish. I'm thinking third generation trust fund baby, or maybe "royalty"?
Both of those qualify as the main dish.
OH! OKAY! when i did it 2 years ago you were all like "HELP! HE'S CRAZY, HE'S A CANNIBAL!" but now you wanna join in or what?!
How does it feel being so god damn delicious?
"This concept of 'crapitalism' confuses and infuriates Lurr!"
"Surely they meant to fairly distribute the wealth"
"No, it says socialism for the rich with rugged individualism for everyone else. Behold."
can we just hunt them for sport? i don't think elon would taste any good
If you're going this route, use the same logic they do: nature preserves that sell rights to hunt big game, to find the preservation.
Maybe we need to rethink the slogan altogether. Unfortunately, "fertilize crops with the rich" doesn't have the same ring to it.
Has anybody considered "Burn the Rich." I know, it's more CO2 in the atmosphere but less private jets so I'm pretty sure it will be a net gain!
You haven't had Billionaire Bourguignon?
Pretty much everything tastes good smoked
Zuck does already have all that Sweet Baby Ray's!
He’s the McNuggets of the rich.
Probably wouldn’t be a very sporting hunt either.
WTF are they good for?
Because the rich have somehow tricked half the world into thinking they are part of that same smaller class, when in reality they are nowhere close to being such.

Yes they have created collaborators
Cause bootlickers, that’s why.
Why eat what you can lick?
Oh man, I'm about to make apples taste 1000% better for you.
And here I was going to make a pussy joke.
How many licks does it take to get to the center of a wealthy pop?
Working class neighbor who earns 0.1% more: *sweats profusely*
That's not how it works.
In theory.
How would you handle a situation where in addition to "eat the rich", people start to say "eat the working class supporters of the rich" or "eat the families of the working class supporters of the rich" or "eat the 'eat the rich' dissenters"?

Apologist for the rich
So you actually took a strawman and shoved it down a slippery slope into a victim complex with a condescending "you'll see!" flourish at the end! Wow.
That would have been HILARIOUS with just a modicum of self awareness, but instead it's just sad 🤦
Steelman instead of Strawman my friend.
Yeah you don't get indoctrinated until your second yacht
Because the rich can afford to stop them.
This is, unfortunately, a sentiment that has worked out rather poorly throughout history
Would you eat something that rotten?
That cookbook's going to be complicated. Rich white woman is going to be like trying to cook fugu. No no don't slice open the face it's full of botulism.
I ask the same thing Lrrr. They taste like pork.
You know what they say, the working class are from Mars and the rich are from Venus.
*Omicron Persei 7 and Omicron Persei 9.
Because we filled up on nuts at the reception.
Because my bed is so so comfy
Wouldn't that be... illegal or something? I'm not an expert tho
Because then nobody would have a job, and have to resort in eating each other sadly.
Last time they ate the rich afterwards everybody starved to death because nobody was left knowing how to do thing
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Great_Chinese_Famine
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soviet_famine_of_1930%E2%80%931933
And the funny thing about it: When some poor had learned how to do things again those poor became the new rich.
Capitalism might be bare of morale but at least it cares for paying customers in spite of all alternatives.
Yeah, it sure shows.
