    I was burned out so did mushrooms and looked at the sky naked in a parking lot. I found my God.

    The fact that a 30 day vacation is seen as privileged is a failure of the US.

    Obligatory reminder that the guillotine was primarily used against commoners who were the political opponents of the party then in power.

      We have to manually eat the rich to keep it from becoming an industrialized process that people can tune out.

      I saw one where he was like, when I have people to interview for a job in my company, I ring them at 7 in the morning and tell them to be in the office by 8 and make them do a whole days work and then if they pass that the interview process starts… like go fuck yourself you pretentious cunt, you’re just making people work for free then telling them to fuck off, and to top it off he had people below saying yeah I applaud that and that’s the best way to take out the worst people who don’t want to work???

    I did a search to find the original article, first from Business Insider, then from her LinkedIn share.

    Definitely not the gender nor race – or even age range – that I anticipated the person being.
    I totally assumed white guy around 60 years old, not Imani Ellis being it looks like about 32 years old

    As far as I can tell, it looks like her companies, CultureCon and Creative Collective NYC, don’t seem to be massive or rolling in the big bucks like finance and banking (rudimentary search result here), but nonetheless, to even be ABLE to take 30 days off work, spend the money on a flight – and hotels!!! – for 30 days in an incredibly expensive place overseas, that’s still flaunting money that most of us would have spent on food or rent.

    In the leftist Slack groupchat I’m part of, that was one of the first emojis/Reacts that we created custom: a guillotine

    I mean, I’m not a CEO and I could do the same and have vacations days remaining. What you need is an union.

    I’d settle for a Trebuchet emoji, because I’m fine with flinging billionaires across the landscape at high speeds.

    Honestly, a lot more fun than a guillotine, imho. Think about the ragdolling as they tumble in the air.

    EDIT: Also, the longer the hangtime, the longer they have to think about the decisions that led them to people wanting to fling their body a few miles with a trebuchet. No forced self reflection with a guillotine.

      I doubt they’d spend the hangtime thinking about their transgressions.

      It would more useful for other billionaires to see the hangtime and imagining that, as a deterrent.

      Yes this is a completely pedantic comment

      I’m imagining an event like the old school Punkin Chunkin, where people build elaborate devices to try and fling a pumpkin as far and as accurately as possible. Call it The Billionaire Fling and wherever the billionaires land is where they get buried.

      Have amusement rides, bounce houses, fair food, etc, and donate all proceeds to food banks and homeless shelters.

    petitioning for a fucking emoji epitomizes the criticism that social media is a vehicle for diverting action into impotent dialogue.

    since we’re on the subject

    retributive violence against individual actors is not the same as dismantling oppressive systems, and should not eclipse the important work of creating resilient communities and networks of mutual aid to replace those heirarchies.
