Antiwork

Here's a Forbes (warning: certainly a publication funded by these ghouls) article about it. It sounds absolutely vile.

The beautiful mountain resort town of Sun Valley, Idaho, will again be overwhelmed with private jets, bodyguards, and entourages, as the world's wealthiest attend the 40th annual media finance conference hosted and funded by private investment firm Allen & Company.

...

The coveted invites to the gathering went out to the top 1% of CEOs, their families, investors, and brilliant scientific minds. Most guests arrive by private jets, (which resulted in a ground stop issued by the FAA last year due to extreme congestion.) For five days, the famous moguls all wear name badges like us common folk, listen to speeches, sit in on panels about politics, healthcare, and the economy, and join in on group activities from golf to fly-fishing, hiking, and cycling.

...

The opportunity to take the layer of wealth and fame off the table allows people to really be themselves, to live in the moment, feel humbled (lmao wtf), and appreciate the simple things in life that make this place special.

...

Also invited were Lawrence Summers, Hank Paulson, former Italian Prime Minister Mario Draghi, former CIA chief David Petraeus, Warren Buffett, former American Express chief Kenneth Chenault, LinkedIn co-founder Reid Hoffman, Annox Capital’s Bob Myeloid, and Facebook investor Peter Thiel.

Ghouls. Protest isn't enough, we need to [REDACTED]

This is wild. Do you have a blog or somewhere where you publish details around this story?

Let me know how I can help spread the word! This might actually be a viable avenue as long as all signs have clear, concise, and unified messaging.

Its a stance you can only hove when you don’t pay attention.

this is ironic

Neoliberalism is a kind of liberalism, and both (just like conservativism) serve capitalism (which serves billionaires).
So that person is not wrong (disclaimer - I don't know much about Thiel, but Musk absolutely played the liberal card for a long long time, and is only now letting his more "socially conservative" opinions, like transphobia or support of Russia, out).

Lmao, sometimes I wish I had the ignorance to claim Thiel was any kind of liberal

You've got balls of steel for wanting to piss off all the people in this world who could unperson you, in person. I salute your efforts and wish you the best with minimal future harassment.

To be fair, that’s true to some extent in the US and most developed countries too. Outside of the popular billionaires constantly on the news, the true wealthy (or old money rich as another comment said) lay low and try not to attract attention to themselves. The ones who flaunt their wealth are newly rich or not actually wealthy enough but want to be seen as such.

I love the word Mittelstand! That's wonderful.

I can't imagine having that much money and not sharing. I daydream about winning the lottery so I can just help people in need. My community would be helped so much if I could do it, we have people living in tents in parks in the city. I could get them housing and pay their rent and barely make a dent in wealth.

Dangle them over a shark tank.

Roasted on a bed of sea salt with rosemary.

Well I don't think there should be billionaires but I also don't want to be a cannibal.

Hmmm what to choose.

The issue has never been that some people will ultimately make more than others. With the exception of people on lemmygrad servers, an "everyone gets an equal share" approach is not what most people are looking for. It's more that the division of wealth is massively unequal and that those with that obscene wealth are wielding it in ways that run counter to the common good.

Most people understand that you'll have some rich people, but there needs to be better means to support poorer people in a relative manner and that isn't possible right now.

And to be clear, that is not the biggest issue with billionaires. It’s the accumulation of capital, not wealth itself. Capital being in their hands, under capitalism, means they rule the system. So the 2660 billionaires control most of the capital of the world, and thus most of the world. Because y’know, capitalism. The system where having capital directly translates into power. The system the bourgeoisie fought to implement, in violent revolutions, against feudalism. Which is the system where “God” says who deserves power.

But there were more than 2660 lords and kings…. So we’re literally living in a less equal system, numerically, than feudalism. Lmao good job humans.
