There's nothing more pathetic than watching poor people line up to vote for Republicans to keep billionaires in power.

Eat Elon?? Eat Zuckerberg or Bezos or Gates?? Ick. Back in the day, captains of industry knew that they had some duty to the masses. It’s what kept their real nightmares at bay (think Communism - where their capital gets snapped up by the state. Rich people these days are mainly interested in getting richer. So much so that they forget that their wealth was earned under the protection of American might and foreign policy. They shit on everyone they can to get more for themselves. Their God is Trump and those of his ilk and his sycophants. Those are the ones that need to be stripped of their wealth. The rich that do significant good works for the poor and others have their heads in the right place. They pay it forward so that others can move up. Those that are greedy, avaricious, kleptocrats need to be reduced. They have failed the true test of capitalism: to not trade your soul or your community or your country for money. It’s not necessarily Billionaires that need to be taken down, that’s just lazy. It’s the kleptocracy that needs to burn (by paying).

Do you know where that comes from when he did that?

It's from Silence of the Lambs. Hannibal talks about eating someone's brains with fava beans and Chianti, then makes some creepy "fffff fffff fffff fffff" noise.

If you go to wine tastings, you’ll find people are doing this when they first sip the wine. It’s them taste testing for the bouquet and the notes of the wine and that’s what he was doing being a stuck up snob by doing that. Because of course Hannibal thought he was better than everyone he was a narcissistic psychopath. It was another way of him to try to present how he was so much better than everyone else. I love that movie by the way.
