If I were making tons of cash on AI speculation I would say that, too. Doesn’t make it accurate. Facts tell a different story.
Unrelatable dickhead expresses an opinion, promptly ignored.
More like makes me fantasize about using his chrome dome to set an Amazon data center on fire like burning ants with a magnifying glass
Sadly the inescapable physical truth of convex vs concave lensing still relentlessly holds its tenacious grip on reality, despite the billions of dollars these folks have accumulated they have still, thus far, been unable to alter that particular aspect of reality.
The only solution I can offer for Jeff Bezos is to begin forming his skull inwards somewhat so that any captured light can reach a proper focusing point. As as astronomer with some experience with such reflective optical surfaces, I’d be happy to begin the grinding and polishing process for you at any time, I’ll just need you to hold him still while I work. It’s a very precise process.
I assume his head is mostly thick skull surrounding empty space anyway, so I think there should be little harm done.
just make the light source more concave than his head is convex!
maybe. or just use a [REDACTED]
A high power laser? That feels like it might work. Perhaps we should start experimenting on Jeff Bezos’s head to see what works best.
A high power something yeah
promptly ignored.
That’s what the oligarchs want…
He has your money, and if you want it now vote JG Wentworth 2028.
Because unless we take our money back, they’re just gonna fucking keep it.
Edit:
Because people might not know that commercial:

Point being that’s the only thing we should say to oligarchs, if we say nothing they win
So every time you see a billionaire, say “bitch, where’s my money”.
Don’t let them talk about anything besides they have our money.
We’re past the point of redistribution. We need to take it out of their hides as well.
Please nobody ignore him. Everyone needs to hear this -and be enraged.
Nothing will change until they fear for their lives.
Just wanted to throw down the reminder that health insurance companies, for a brief moment, didn’t deny nearly as many claims.
Sometimes violence is the answer.
IMO capital punishment is only violence if it’s done to the working class. If a judge and jury, after due process, sentences a billionaire to death that is justice.
Fear isn’t enough. The whole billionaire class should be culled from society.
Nothing will change until we end their lives.

Borrowed $250k ($550k in today’s money) from his family to start Amazon, has so much money now that money has ceased to have meaning. This asshole has never lived a normal life and yet he thinks he knows what kind of problems people are facing today.
Grew up wealthy, borrowed $250k ($550k in today’s money) from his family to start Amazon
That’s not a bad thing. Families should do it more often: pool their money and start a business. The return rates are higher.
They are absolutely not higher, for every Jeff Bozos there’s hundreds of John Does, who never made it.
The system is not your friend.
The system is not your friend.
But the corporations are, who take the saved money? They pay the bare minimum. The only way to beat the system is to make own decisions.
Statements like these always remind me of the quote: “For the master’s tools will never dismantle the master’s house. They may allow us to temporarily beat him at his own game, but they will never enable us to bring about genuine change. Racism and homophobia are real conditions of all our lives in this place and time. I urge each one of us here to reach down into that deep place of knowledge inside herself and touch that terror and loathing of any difference that lives here. See whose face it wears. Then the personal as the political can begin to illuminate all our choices.” - Audre Lorde
IMO using the system in a way that abuses the system only perpetuates another system of abuse.

What does that mean? I can read it in too many directions.

That’s what currently is happening. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Regulatory_capture
More competition is needed, more market economy, to make the system fair again. It’s not abusing the system to start a business.
No, it’s just using the system as it is intended. But most businesses fail.
We need to abolish the system.
But most businesses fail.
That’s ok. It’s possible to invest in more than one company.
We need to abolish the system.
And do what?
Strange how a man who stands to make billions more from this, thinks all those opposed to it are wrong.
Guessing it’s due to his vast and deep knowledge of the subject, after long and careful scientific and sociologic research.
“Billionaire with vested interest in AI &Trump says there’s no problems with billionares, AI & Trump”
Why the fuck even ask him?
Because people for some reason think greedy people have some authority outside of their own greed. Hint: they don’t!
Why is the billionaire owned media interviewing billionaires about things that affect billionaires? We may never know
Fair point lol
Imagine that! All the billionaires defending each other. Go figure!
It’s like they have some sort of solidarity. One based on their class. Seems like an idea that could greatly benefit them.
And yet they hate each other, because they covet each other’s wealth
They’re so envious, when they have no need to be
It’s an illness
The only cure is the guillotine
Shit. That’s brilliant. I wish it would work for the rest of us. If only we outnumbered them… Lol.
Hey, in civilised countries we look at the super-rich with contempt and disgust
We don’t aspire to be amongst their number like 'Muricans tend to
Yes. Lol. Not like anyone else will for much longer.
Being completely wrong on all topics is an accomplishment on its own.
What sorts of salads and sides would go well with him?
I’d feed him to my dog
But while he’s still alive
(my dog is about as harmless as it gets, he’s old, missing many teeth and just wants to sleep and cuddle, but still…)
I’d wager that Bezos tastes bitter, sour and otherwise unpleasant
Don’t do that to your poor dog. Let’s just treat Jeff like government cheese, stored in slices in a cave, because nobody wants to eat it.
It takes dedication and really going the extra mile to be so diabolically shitty.
its
These billionaire ghouls just don’t know when to stfu
I honestly cannot imagine being THAT rich, being able to do anything, and still being such a massive piece of shit
Exactly. They have so much money they could fuck off somewhere and live the rest of their lives and their families in sumptous luxury without even having made a dent in their fortune. Yet they continue to stick around and work hard at ruining everything for the rest of us, just so that they can add extra billions to their billions.
You don’t get to be that rich without being a massive piece of shit.
Exactly. Average asshole gets a billion, they get a financial advisor, let their money turn into generational wealth with investments, and donate to charity while living in a big mansion.
The billionaires we have are more of mentally sick wannabe dragons, the horde will never be big enough to satisfy them.
Hell, that will happen at tens of millions. The magnitude of a billion is crazy.
Even if they are more driven to keep going, others turn to more philanthropic pursuits. Well before a billion the number becomes more like a high score rather than giving any quality of life improvements, so what’s the point of getting more? Most will want to mean more to the world than just some high score. So accumulated wealth starts getting directed away for all but sociopaths that relish the high score in and of itself.
Or what? What are you(plural) gunna do about it? They keep getting away with it so what is this “when” you speak of and what’s going to happen?
Even small children and animals learn very quickly that empty threats are far more cringey than scary and begin ignoring them almost immediately. These are grown people who’ve lived their whole lives without consequences and you think they give a shit?
just don’t know when to stfu
I don’t think they can afford to, if they’re betting on this technology. They have to use their public influence to convince as many (important) people as possible for as long as possible to squeeze as much money as possible. After all, if these successful CEOs say it’s good, other CEOs may be swayed as well, and they’re the suckers that’ll end up deciding to spend the fruit of other people’s labour on infrastructure and tokens.
I don’t think they can afford to
These people literally have fuck you money, they can afford a fuck-up like the AI bubble popping tens of times over if not endlessly with their countless legal loopholes. Their attitudes are based purely on having never faced repercussions for their societal parasitism and an insatiable desire for “more”.
Financially, sure. Emotionally, their sense of self-worth and their image is defined by their financial success. To have bet on a losing horse would sting. Hence, they need it to succeed.
Oh sure they have to influence, but I would expect them to do so a bit more on the down low. If they have a whiff of self awareness, they know this will just do more harm than good to their interests.

People like this bastard should be hanging
from multiple ropes in multiple pieces.
okay maybe i’m going a bit far haha
Never enough.pieces
A pillory would be a good start. Then all the Amazon drivers can line up and dump their piss bottles in his face.
I don’t think we should hang him but I do think we should hang his companies.
It would be more satisfying to me to see him have to start from the bottom.
Why not both
Hang him then bury him in the ground so he can start from the bottom?
Don’t give him a second chance wtf.
Dude deserves the Mussolini treatment and nothing short of it.
Too humane. They should suffer for many, many years isolated in a filthy jail cell first
Too dangerous. They have lots of sycophants who would lay down their lives for them. As long as they live they are a threat.
Fair enough.
Personally I think culling the entire Epstein class and dragging their corpses until every major cities’ municipal boundary can be seen from space would send a more effective message.
Dip them in liquid nitrogen and christen their yachts before we scuttle them.
Hang them by their feet from a crane and see how many it takes to demolish a data center.
(Gee I wonder why I got banned from reddit)
Billionaires became billionaires by ruining the life of dozens of thousands of people each. They should have plenty of time to regret that before their end, that’s my take
Fair enough.
I personally don’t think anyone with the capacity to become a billionaire still has a conscience with which to regret or introspect.
Meanwhile based on my reading of history, exiling/imprisoning oligarchs works in their favour in the long run.
And he loves it! In another article (possibly about the same interview) he praised Trump for being so much more assertive in his second term.
edit: oh, you meant actual Mussolini, not Mango Mussolini 😳
I’m calling for him to be summary executed and his corpse dragged through the streets and strung up on live stream in Time Square
Well what did you expect, him to come out and say “yes, billionaires are detrimental to society”?
The police investigated themselves and found nothing wrong.
“The top 1% of taxpayers pay about 40% of all the tax revenue, and the bottom half pay 3%,” Bezos said. “I don’t think it should be 3%. I think it should be zero.”
“People sometimes say that, you know, I don’t pay taxes. Not true. I pay billions of dollars in taxes,”
“You could double the taxes I pay, and it’s not going to help that teacher in Queens. I promise you.”
WT-absolute-F? I think he got oxygen-deprived in space.
“You could double the taxes I pay, and it’s not going to help that teacher in Queens. I promise you.”
well, in the USA this is probably true, all the money would be diverted into more military spending or tax breaks for stupid filthy rich people
which is why we need tax money being spent on the communal level. not the federal level. it’s the fed gov that spends it on the military, it’s the municipality that spends it on schools.
The US does, for schools, which deepens social inequality.
Fair enough, LOL. Just love that it’s “oh I pay TONS of taxes, but asking me to pay more in taxes won’t help anything.”
Also, education is locally funded. So yeah, no shit your federal taxes aren’t going to go to a teacher in Queens you fucking chode
“You could double the taxes I pay, and it’s not going to help that teacher in Queens. I promise you.”
He promised!
Seriously though, does he think that a) only Bezos of all multibillionaires gets taxed double and b) that wouldn’t go along with social policy?
What a dumb wacko, high on sniffing his own farts. Probably partly due to a fawning interviewer.
These creatures can’t even figure out how to cosplay as fully formed human beings.
