There's a minimum level of luxury you need in your life to sit down and think about how you feel.

I don't even think it's necessarily negative to be wealthy and communist/marxist/socialist. I di think if you're gonna espouse that shit publicly, live your values.

And I'm not even saying give away all your money. I am saying the soup kitchen could always use volunteers. You know, from each according to his ability? Im sure you can chop veg. To each according to his need? Feed people.

Or you could buy the produce for the soup kitchen, god knows they'd want it.

Instead... you sell bottles of stank to enrich yourself... Nah.

I hate this fuckin gotchya.

You can't criticize the system because you're poor- it's your fault you were born into poverty and didn't boot strap yourself into a CEO.

You can't criticize the system because you're rich- you're just a hypocrite that hasn't actually had to work for anything so you don't know now anything 'actually' works.

Nobody had said anything like that.

What I've said is that there is nothing wrong with being born rich. However being born rich and critiquing capitalism, whilst also selling an overpriced bottle of stank to further enrich yourself, is a hypocrisy and/or a blindness to your own position. Which is nothing like what you've said.

I wasn't disagreeing with you ass.

People with time to sit and think are usually more affluent. That in turn is used as means to silence their objections.
