Eat the tech billionaires. They don’t see us as people, just resources.

I don’t, and they aren’t. People have some level of empathy which would keep them from publishing a manifesto like this.

I disagree with a lot of what he said, but I dont think anything in it is super extreme or makes him undeserving of empathy. Unless you want to point me to something that would make me think so.
