mm… well I hate billionaires for being exploitative and shit. And I’d like to see their money shared around. But a trust fund is something that one is given by the circumstances of their birth, not something one needs to be an exploitative asshole for. Perhaps their parents are exploitative assholes, sure, but why would I hate somebody just for being born into privilege?
I… I don’t understand what is happening here. You are the one who is advocating insulting people for having a trust fund, but you’re saying I’m too reasonable because I disagree?
Anyway, if you think I’d be banned for that opinion, you might have misunderstood something something about our philosophy. Karl Marx grew up in a wealthy family, after all.

That’s far too reasonable a viewpoint, you’ll get banned from your instance talking like that.
