When it has been demonstrated over and over again, how little they think of anyone beneath them.

    You should not be downvoted. The super rich are directly responsible of the misery and suffering of billions of people, every day they decide or simply allow people to be killed in a war or live in the street or left to die of hunger or sickness if they can make more money. They are de facto dehumanising themselves. Billionaires are not humans.

      It is liberalist ideology to assume humanity is defined by morals, empathy, care, collective aid and other social values that we need to survive. Humanity is material.

      The reality is that these atrocities are well within the bounds of humanity. Billionaires are anti-social, as in against a functioning society (not merely against civilization). Incompatible with long-term life. The horrifying truth is that they’re human.
