I find the belief that #leftists are mad at the #rich and powerful because of envy is frankly insulting. We don't think anyone should have that much money or power because it turns them into a twisted horrible human being and at some point they had to exploit others or the environment to get that money. If no one has that much money, all of us have a little more. If no one has that much power, ALL of us are a little more power to make our world better.

After a certain threshold, pick an arbitrary point, say $50 million, the money replaces a conscience.
I’m not envious of people who are devoid of empathy and use a moat of cash to avoid feelings.
Those people are sociopaths.
What healthy person is jealous of sociopaths?

As far as they are concerned that is the truth. The alternative would mean they are forced to admit they are villains.

My answer is that I am mad at the rich and the powerful because they destroy our freedom.
