Just a shower realisation… I never associated the two words before but it’s so obviously true.
Billionaires are humanity’s cancer.
And since they run or influence our lives in so many ways, does that mean that humanity has cancer?
Indeed, I believe we are seeing the simptoms.
Won’t you say humanity is sick right now?
To expand on my previous point: A cáncer cell (billionaire) is one that forgot its original purpose (being a productive member of society) and instead grows indiscriminately, eventually killing its host (Everyone else and the planet).
Honestly I don’t see any difference at all between the two.
And another follow-up thought:
If cancer cells are at their most dangerous when infecting an unhealthy host, does that imply that the ultra-wealthy are currently at their most dangerous, given how fragmented and non-united the human host is with respect to fighting them off?
Ooh, nice.
Indeed, I’ve sometimes wondered just how much humanity, from a wide view, behaves like many a micro-organism that’s too successful for their own good, eventually exhausting the local resources, drowning in their own waste, and causing their own extinction. Not exactly a nice, cheery “Hallmark card” thought(!)
Wealth radicalizes people.
Look at what it did to Osama bin Laden. And that was just a $100 million.
I hate minorities (billionaires)
Well yeah, they exist at the extremes of society and push almost exclusively for their own further empowerment.
Worshiping money above all else is similar to worshiping a god above all else, and can both lead people down a path to extremism.
so true bestie slay
