This is always a clash when I end up talking to my parents. My home country is slowly falling apart economically and they're completely fucking blind to it. Especially ironic cus one of em is a fucking portfolio manager.
Like when I even mention that affording anything it getting worse and worse each year, while the rich consistently break income records, they derail the discussion by saying like "but don't you have it great tho" (I earn well above average and still feel the pressure, THAT'S THE POINT) or mention that some rich assholes renovated some random castle and that without him it would juts be a ruin and that's sad or some shit.
And we aren't even getting that political yet. Just saying "hey mom, my future be looking unsustainable".
Same. My parents simp hard for billionaires. Always have. They’ve always voted republican too, including trump. It’s so disgusting
realistically the CEOs make the biggest scare, but the chain of command usually barely even reaches them in large companies. if you really want to stop a company from doing bad things it's not a super effective strategy. that being said if you're trying to make them feel unsafe then it's perfect, but it is also terrorism by definition. do with that what you will. edit: clarified what kind of company
The mulch must flow
I want to know some awesome parents like you guys!! The parents I know aren’t very open about this stuff.

It's not that easy though, is United Healthcare now stopping what they do because that douche died?
That's why we do what France did in the 1700s. One billionaire dead won't send a message, but one dead every month for the foreseeable future will.
The sample size is too low to give an accurate result.
it's not smart to wholly rely on results of a single experiment, scientifically speaking
It stopped Blue Cross from restricting how long they’ll pay for anesthetic.
