    Did he elaborate further on what that means? Seriously, where’s the original tweet? there’s no way nobody ask this racist twat in replies to explain to layman non-philosophers like us what is n-word rich billionares, and what he sees as a problem with his best friends Peter Thiel and Elon Musk? does he mean they they are leeching lazy mutants on society? does he meam they exaggerate or waste their wealth where it should not go? Is he criticizing them or is he actually with classism and billionares but just wants them to get their act together and invest in better things? is that something of the billionare-class shortcomings or does he oppose America’s form of capitilism which lead to their existence?

    peter thiels bestie, was allegedly defenestrated last year, his boytoy , not his husband. also the fact the p2025 and heritage foundation is funded by thiel himself, but the endgame doesnt include “people” like THIEL in thier society.

    thiel likes to do things behind the scenes, so he avoids any responsibilities, plus hes gay so he would face much resistance in his policies if he was up and front, like the log cabin people.

    The appropriate words to put in there are Nigglers. Cause they are all niggler-rich. They niggle away at us: pay me for this pay me for that. They didn’t do any work or produce anything but a stranglehold on their workers (niggling away their/your hours for niggled pay).

    Lynch the Nigglers. Billionaires & corporations. Lynch em all.

        Don’t interrupt your enemy’s enemy dumbass

        I’m not saying they’re your friend, just don’t interrupt the fight. Use it. Let them fight

        Don’t interrupt two enemies who are making a mistake, don’t be a fucking idiot. Use the opportunity, win.

        That’s all that matters - win and never forget why you did it

    Our problem is niner billionaires?

    Or is he referring to black people while being a giant dildo?

    If so, I have a serious question? How many black people out there are billionaires? Seriously, of all billionaires in the world, how many are black? I mean, I’m sure there are some but I have never heard of them.

    of all problems with billionaires, skin color seriously seriously is the least.

      From Meriam-Webster’s entry on the word

      Did the definition of n----r change?

      There is a widespread belief that the original meaning of n----r, as defined in dictionaries, was “an ignorant person,” and a related belief that current dictionary definitions describing its use as a hateful, racist epithet are a recent change. We do not know the source of those beliefs, but they are not accurate. The word was first included in a Merriam-Webster dictionary in 1864, at which time it was defined as a synonym of Negro, with a note indicating that it was used “in derision or depreciation.” There has never been a definition like “an ignorant person” for this word in any subsequent dictionary published by this company. Nor do we know of such a definition in any earlier dictionary.

      There’s been an attempt among white racists over the years to try and redeem the hard-r N-word. They’ll say that it originally meant just an ignorant or foolish person in general, not only black people specifically. But this is a historical fiction. It’s always been used as a slur against black people. It was originally a complete synonym for “negro.” If you asked Yarvin, and he didn’t just admit outright to being a flaming racist, he would likely justify it by making a claim like this. He would claim that he’s saying these billionaires are just corrupt and foolish. He would say that it’s OK to use the word, as he’s not referring to black people, just ignorant and lazy people in general. He would say he’s using the non-racist definition of the n-word. But again, this is a historical fiction.

      Sometimes racists will cite words like “niggardly”, meaning cheap or stingy, as an example of how the n-word could be used in ways not applying just to black people. Niggardly is a word that sounds like the n-word but actually does have a non-racist history. They’ll try to link niggardly to the hard-r n-word. But what they ignore is that the word niggardly has a completely different etymological root. Niggardly shares roots with words like niggling, tracing back to the 13th century nig, meaning simply a stingy person. The n-word however, as Meriam-Webster notes, derives directly from the Spanish negro.. Racists will connect the n-word to words like niggardly, niggling, etc., citing their real history as non-racist words, and say that the n-word can also be used non-offensively because of this. But there is no common etymological root between the hard-r n-word and similar sounding words that do actually have a non-racist history.

      Of course, it’s all ultimately a moot point. In polite society today, most people understandably avoid using any word that remotely sounds like the n-word. See controversies around the word niggardly. And really, there’s little reason to use words like niggardly, even if one could argue that they’re technically not racist. They just sound way too similar, and there’s plenty of other perfectly valid words to use in their place. And ultimately, someone could just as easily be hurt or offended by words that sound similar to the n-word even if they’re technically not directly related. The words are best avoided, as they just end up hurting people for no good reason, even if some etymologist might argue they’re not directly related.

      It’s the kind of thing where you have to join the KKK and uncritically accept everything you’re told for 20 years and then maybe you’ll be able to fathom it. They will of course mistake that for complex philosophy rather than a steaming pile of horse shit.

    How is it that the weirdest dudes keep ending up with so much power and influence. Like, this is just bigoted shit obviously, but it’s weird bigoted shit. What is it about people that makes them look at a weirdo freak (derogatory) like this and think “this is a man I need to have direct the entirety of my belief system going forward”?

      I think a part of it is you have to be weird to want to chase power. Normal people aren’t thinking 24/7 about how they can leap frog their way into power

        The other part is that normal people as party of a well functioning society need to actively maintain systems that keep fuckwits from accumulation to much power, and we haven’t been doing that.

      Success is awarded to the confident. You can be an absolute weird idiot and still, in the right circumstances, get massive success just because people assume there’s a reason you seem so confident, and who are they to second guess that confidence?

        That’s literally the only reason Trump is where he is. He’s not actually good at anything.

        Confidence is often mistaken for competence. I’d like to believe that’s why “con(fidence) men” are ever successful.

      The pedant in me is glad he didn’t misuse niggardly.

      It could be correctly used to describe many billionaires, but post in image would surely misuse it.
