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

[–] [email protected] 75 points 2 years ago (2 children)

You have an unfortunate username for this conversation.

[–] [email protected] 41 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Friendly fire is always a unfortunate possibility.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 2 years ago

Your sacrifice for the cause is appreciated comrade.

[–] [email protected] 22 points 2 years 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] 11 points 2 years ago

That double-crossing jerk!

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

But does it have a bidet?

[–] [email protected] 11 points 2 years ago (4 children)

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

[–] [email protected] 8 points 2 years ago

Are you joking? That sounds like an amazing meal.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago

Fat is flavor buddy

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

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 years 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] 5 points 2 years ago (1 children)

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

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

Both of those qualify as the main dish.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 years 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] 3 points 2 years ago

How does it feel being so god damn delicious?

[–] [email protected] 56 points 2 years ago (1 children)

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

[–] [email protected] 18 points 2 years ago

"Surely they meant to fairly distribute the wealth"

"No, it says socialism for the rich with rugged individualism for everyone else. Behold."

[–] [email protected] 34 points 2 years ago (5 children)

can we just hunt them for sport? i don't think elon would taste any good

[–] [email protected] 12 points 2 years 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 2 years 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.

You haven't had Billionaire Bourguignon?

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

Pretty much everything tastes good smoked

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago (1 children)

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

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

He’s the McNuggets of the rich.

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

Probably wouldn’t be a very sporting hunt either.

WTF are they good for?

[–] [email protected] 29 points 2 years ago (2 children)

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.

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

Yeah. Plus, Joanne and Cleetus are so sefish and so freaking stupid that they actually believe there's a chance they'll find oil in them there hills one day. God forbid you touch their theoretical oil.

Cause bootlickers, that’s why.

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

Why eat what you can lick?

[–] [email protected] 8 points 2 years ago (1 children)

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

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

And here I was going to make a pussy joke.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago

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

[–] [email protected] 19 points 2 years ago (1 children)

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

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

Apologist for the rich

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years 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] 17 points 2 years ago

Because the rich can afford to stop them.

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

[–] [email protected] 16 points 2 years ago

Would you eat something that rotten?

[–] [email protected] 14 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

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

[–] [email protected] 12 points 2 years ago (1 children)

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

[–] [email protected] 8 points 2 years ago

*Omicron Persei 7 and Omicron Persei 9.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 2 years ago

Because we filled up on nuts at the reception.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 2 years ago

Because my bed is so so comfy

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago
