What if we start killing board members instead of just CEOs, you know, the puppet masters along with the puppet.
While we are at it, also any billionaires to
You can’t murder your way out of a situation you didn’t murder yourself into.
This is my biggest frustration with these posts. We might not like it, but CEOs are still working class. Most of their wealth is derived from a paycheck. They aren’t even the owning class. They’re rich AF, but they’re a symptom more than a problem.
Working class means your primary wealth generation tool is selling your labor. The compensation plans vary widely, but I think most CEOs are earning most of their wealth through a salary vs returns on things they own.
You can hate it all you want, but that’s what working class means.
That’s completely inappropriate. That boulder could be turned into a statue.
IDK. I’m thinking more a giant bronze statue of Luigi would be more appropriate. Interesting enough, those things aren’t as expensive as you might think. Some googling suggests a cost of between $25k-250k for a life sized bronze statue. That’s a lot for an individual, but well within the realm of crowd funding. I say we place it on a main road outside UHC’s headquarters in Minnesota. Make the bastards drive past it every single day on the way to work.
Hey… Boulders ain’t cheap either.
…and a cool ass boulder.
A drop of the guillotine is completely free. Just saying.
Sure. But it just doesn’t have the same fire and brimstone “wrath of an angry God” feel to it. Guillotines are quick. But if you really hate someone, you’ll go to the trouble of hauling an 800 lb boulder around just to off 'em. If you really want to show your displeasure with someone, you’ll go to the trouble of loading a giant rock on a boat and hauling it an hour offshore. It’s “I hate you so much I’m willing to go to this amount of effort!”
What about a really dull guillotine?
One that takes ten or fifteen drops to do any real damage?
I mean, yeah, but it just doesn’t have the same vibe to it. You can’t make a grandiose speech about “condemning them to the depths.” Plus it’s just much more terrifying, watching the surface of the water rise above you, as you’re pulled inexhorably down into the abyss…
Also, the water muffles the screaming!
Don’t wanna ruin the fun, but I’d argue a 100lb (to continue the weird measures) boulder would more than suffice.
It’s not about efficiency; it’s about sending a message! Bullets are a lot easier than boulders into the Sea, but they just don’t have the same vibe! Nothing says you hate someone quite as much as being willing to haul a half ton boulder a hundred miles offshore in a boat. The impracticality isn’t a bug; it’s a feature! For boulders chucked into the ocean, the bigger, the better!
