the rich just need some special hugs! specifically on their necks!
We should donate them all kavorkian scarfs for winter.
Zuckerberg is the fifth-richest person in the world with an estimated net worth of $228.3 billion, according to Forbes. In 2015, Zuckerberg and Chan pledged to give away 99 percent of their shares in Meta (Facebook at the time) to philanthropy over their lifetimes. To date, they’ve given away more than $7 billion.”
So in 10 years they've given away 3% of his net worth? Fucking slackers.
Well they need to enjoy every penny until they die. THEN they will give it away. To their own charity that has political influence for their kids.
So they will give 99% away. Which leaves them a billionaire.
Zuckerberg isn't going to have children
"Drags" "slams" She didn't do anything that would affect anything at all. I don't care.
I am a wrestler and we don't use the word slam anywhere near as much as these 'journalists' do.
Love you all, but there’s a few people in here that have a lot more money than me. If you’re a billionaire, why are you a billionaire? No hate, but yeah, give your money away, shorties.
This is just...so weak. I really would have appreciated a "fuck you" and a vague threat of violence, but alas.
love you all
Man, dragging just isn't what it used to I guess
Jesus, by the headline I expected her to say something along the line of "your money is earned through exploitation of society's most vulnerable people, you wastes of air". Not, "why don't you give some of it away kthxbye <3"
The ghost of Gaddafi is like, “yo WTF, this is what getting dragged is now??”
Blasted! Skewered, even.

Playing both sides so she always comes out on top.

They're never going to financially recover from this.
Oh wait actually nevermind, it turns out they actually made more money while I was writing that sentence than I've made in my entire life. I guess they'll be okay.
I mean, wouldn't they need to financially suffer first to have a recovery? So I agree, they won't financially recover from this non-event. There's nothing to recover from.
Yeah that was originally the joke, but then halfway through writing it I just got depressed.
"drags"
This is why AI is so successful in replacing bloggers but will never even come close to replacing real journalists.
Almost as bad as 'slams'.
More like 'gently chides'. Weak.
Real issue is not just owning billions, there is also what you have to do to hold on to that kind of money: suck up to dictators so they let you monopolize tech and crush small competitors.
Working 40 hours a week at $20 an hour gets you less than $35k take home a year. Fuck billionaires and millionaires.
When I was growing up, I didn't even have a concept of a billionaire. I remember considering that to be a millionaire you had to be able to spend a million dollars and still have a million left over. In effect, a person wasn't a millionaire until they had reached the second million. Who Wants to Be a Millionaire threw me for a loop because the top prize was only a million dollars.
When I was a young teenager I was quite pleased at saving $300 to buy a new bike because after I bought it, I still had just over a hundred dollars left. It was euphoric to have been a hundredaire for a few days.
Not sure why that popped into my head reading your comment, but there you go.
But were they eviscerated?
And did they all go to the same cocktail party afterwards?
You people bitch when they use the term "slam" but here they are trying something new and you shit on them anyway.
Turns out that its not the specific few words, but the fact that Zuck wasn't physically dragged/slammed/destroyed/evicerated or even just separated from his hundreds of billions. She actually just said some words.

DESTROYED, even.
The cocktail wieners tasted funny. I think it was the Brazilian rosewood toothpicks soaked in cognac, and covered in gold leaf. Billie had 16!

i dont get why billie ellish is such a big topic to talk about but also im old af so thats prolly why.
She is a pop star, of course, and therefore commands a sizeable fanbase and attention of the press, and anything she says will have weight.
TBH Eilish always seemed really fake before, kind of vulgar and low talent with the pop equivalent of mumble rapping, but this kind of statement is as real as it gets bringing attention to the fact that "things are really, really bad" because you know for sure a lot of assholes in that crowd were trying real hard to ignore it.
According to People, Zuckerberg did not clap after Eilish’s statement — at least according to an eyewitness who was present at the event and spoke with the publication.
Meh, try doing it everyday and make a real difference
Maybe this will motivate Taylor Swift to give more than her equivalent of a nickel to a dying kid.
“Especially in our country”? Fuck outta here.
not news. put this in the tabloid and entertainment communities
