    Who do you think pays for the daily show or Last Week Tonight? The billionaires you like?

        People around here love those shows. But they exist to influence you and are paid for by billionaires. I hope when people on here demand violence against billionaires, they understand it will be against the entertainers they so adore.

          I can confidently say that anyone who would support an armed working class uprising could not care less if it would result in the cancelation of a few shows, and certainly not the shows you mentioned. I think you have created a mental image of some stereotypical “liberal/leftist” that does not actually exist in reality, and certainly does not represent the person whose comment you replied to.

            The minute your favorite celebrities kindly asked you to stop, your movement would die. Billionaires have control. Just imagine John Oliver pleading for the killings to come to an end, you really think people wouldn’t lose their will? Who could resist those puppy eyes?

                I am being serious. You lot hate the people you’re supposed to hate and you love the people you’re supposed to love. You aren’t revolutionaries, you’re tools. You can’t even organize a business, much less have any hope in political change. And just as the slander machine can turn you on any politician, it can be used to turn others against you.

                  I literally don’t know who you’re talking to anymore. Who is “you lot”? You’re arguing with a group of people you invented in your mind.
