The Rich Aren't Like You and Me

I hope this seafaring small penismobile gets the shit hijacked out of it by West African pirates. That douchebaron is practically daring them to.

That's cartoonish in its excesses and contempt for others. Only a mind so removed from the rest of humanity would regard that as appropriate.

This is why Marxism's appeal won't ever completely die. As horrible as the Soviet Union and Eastern Bloc countries were, shit like this will ensure that hostility to the rich will have an ideology to frame their anger.

I don't want to hear about what the rich are doing. I don't want to go to where, where the rich are going.

Totally unrelated, but I just noticed that I've crossed the 1000 post mark, into Unknown Immortal territory! How the hell did that happen?
