I'm waiting for you guys to start. Someone take the first bite yo.

[–] [email protected] 68 points 1 year ago (2 children)

You have an unfortunate username for this conversation.

[–] [email protected] 38 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Friendly fire is always a unfortunate possibility.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 1 year ago

Your sacrifice for the cause is appreciated comrade.

[–] [email protected] 18 points 1 year ago (2 children)

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.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 year ago

That double-crossing jerk!

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

But does it have a bidet?

[–] [email protected] 11 points 1 year ago (4 children)

I honestly don't think they would taste very good. Full of fat and prescription drugs.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 year ago

Are you joking? That sounds like an amazing meal.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Fat is flavor buddy

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Trust me, the rich do a lot more drugs than just the prescribed ones…

Fine but you are bringing the side dish. I'm thinking third generation trust fund baby, or maybe "royalty"?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Both of those qualify as the main dish.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

Where are all the effing serial killers when you actually need them? But nooooooo... We only go after poor white women and children!

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

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?!

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

...wait, you guys haven't literally been eating the rich? What the fuck?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

How does it feel being so god damn delicious?

[–] [email protected] 54 points 1 year ago (1 children)

"This concept of 'crapitalism' confuses and infuriates Lurr!"

[–] [email protected] 18 points 1 year ago

"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

[–] [email protected] 11 points 1 year ago

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.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

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?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Pretty much everything tastes good smoked

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Zuck does already have all that Sweet Baby Ray's!

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

He’s the McNuggets of the rich.

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.

Cause bootlickers, that’s why.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Why eat what you can lick?

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Oh man, I'm about to make apples taste 1000% better for you.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

And here I was going to make a pussy joke.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

How many licks does it take to get to the center of a wealthy pop?

[–] [email protected] 18 points 1 year ago

Because the rich can afford to stop them.

This is, unfortunately, a sentiment that has worked out rather poorly throughout history

Working class neighbor who earns 0.1% more: *sweats profusely*

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago (2 children)
[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (2 children)

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"?

If you answer "that's never gonna happen," I hope you're right because I hate to say "I told you so."

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Apologist for the rich

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (2 children)

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 🤦

Yeah you don't get indoctrinated until your second yacht

[–] [email protected] 16 points 1 year ago

Would you eat something that rotten?

[–] [email protected] 14 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

I ask the same thing Lrrr. They taste like pork.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 1 year ago (1 children)

You know what they say, the working class are from Mars and the rich are from Venus.

*Omicron Persei 7 and Omicron Persei 9.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 1 year ago

Because we filled up on nuts at the reception.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 year ago

Because my bed is so so comfy

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago
