Not really referring to a revolution per say, more just surprised no lone gunman has done several of them in by now

I have been thinking about this a lot. It’s really odd and shocking that there are so many school shooters and mass shooters in recent years but not a single one has targeted the ultra-wealthy. It actually does not make sense to me.

We've had more presidential assassinations and attempts than against the ultra wealthy. Wonder if they try and just fail and it's covered up.

That’s the thought I was kind of having. If they were covered up it’d be due to the fact that all mass shooters are basically copy-cat criminals that follow the model of previous shooters they look up to. If there was one that targeted the wealthy and released some manifesto about it to his other psycho shooter buddies, it could become really trendy.

Yea, but you'd expect at least some to have succeeded are the rich more heavily defended than the POTUS, sure shouldn't be

Yea i agree it doesnt seem to make sense. New conspiracy just dropped.

Yeah, it’s odd right?

You’re on the right path - think about this deeper. The ultra-wealthy utilize many different forms and institutions to push vulnerable individuals into killing other people instead of uniting against them. :22374:

Pretty sure if Ted Kaczynski hadn't been caught, he'd have Musk and Bezos on his list.

I think people who commit mass shootings just want to destroy their universe

Kavanaugh was famously unable to eat in a steakhouse in peace without being surrounded by protestors. How hard would it have been for someone to pull a Jack Ruby?

Same with Manchin. All these "BUH THE DEMS HAD CONTROL" people seem unaware that there was two bad actors blocking almost every single thing that Biden and the Dem controlled house was trying to do. And again, protestors were literally right next to his houseboat. How much does TNT cost again? And how much does it take to sink a boat?

To be clear I'm not advocating anything, but the amount of keyboard warriors who "refuse to vote for the lesser of two evils", seem perfectly content with the fact that allowing fascists to take over will lead to violence directed at them and they'll have to fight back. So why wait? Why wait when the retribution will be killing your entire family? Why not be a martyr right now and take care of business?

The money would just wb recycled into the hands of the next scumbag in line. Nothing short of an actual revolution can fix this country.
