    This is some wild reverse temporarily embarrassed millionaire bullshit right here.

    No matter how many times you repeat this responsability shifting nonsense, it won’t ever make the people earning 60k responsible for what billionaires are doing.

    Maybe visualising the scale of the numbers being discussed will help you see what a joke your comment is.

    (E: fixed link)

            This has some hardcore original sin vibes. If the argument is that we are bad people merely for existing in this country regardless of our actions, then the argument is in bad faith and is only intended to tear down people who would otherwise wish to help.

              Do you buy local grown food?

              Do you eat at mom n pops rather than chain restaurants?

              Is your furniture artisan or IKEA.

              Do you work for a woman or The Man?

              Etc.

              After you leave home and are self supporting, your sins are your own doing.

            Ok my investments have all tanked so I guess I’m an insurgent working to tear down the system from within 🤷‍♂️

              I don’t think your shares losing value counts, unless you are the root cause.

              However if you are in ESG focused funds then (in theory) you get a pass .
