Comment on Is there any way the average American can insulate themselves from the AI bubble bursting?

Wen you’re accustomed to privilege equality feels like oppression. And that’s just for us regular folk. These people love a life of luxury we’ll never understand, and they never get told ‘no’. So yeah, as dumb as it sounds, when you’ve lived a life getting everything you ever want finding out you can’t have that smoothie can have an effect.
I’m not saying that first smoothie would be the trigger point, but the idea is lack of access. Cut off the new sewage drainage from billionaire island. Cut off deliveries of any kind. They’re used to lobster and caviar at the snap of a finger. Kraft Dinner will be unacceptable. Lock them in their utopias and see how long they last.

You’ve got absolutely no idea how the real world works lol. This reads like some fanfic erotica for people who hate billionaires.
In a world like you’re talking about everyone would be out for themselves, not just billionaires, and at that point billionaires will have even more power because they could pay people to shoot-on-sight anyone that comes near their property, and they could just seize the means of production of whatever they wanted to. They can afford to buy whoever they need to, to get whatever they need to.

This entire conversation is based on what the op asked. Would the 99% take what the 1% has. You suggested they couldn’t take it, I suggested they wouldn’t have to they could just cut them off. The entire premise is based on the 99% standing up and uniting. It was an interesting question dude, no need to be insulting.

And I’m saying they couldn’t just cut them off lol.
