These fascistic, eugenicist billionaires have stated clearly that the human species would only benefit from the demise of all of us "useless feeders".
"Even if billions perish in the coming [...] catastrophe..we shouldn’t be too concerned".
They said [climate], but also read [forever wars, poverty, pandemics].

They miss the point that no human beings are "useless". Only fascists and psychopaths think that.

in reply to DrALJONES • • •the way it's practiced in UK (and I believe USA) is very much talking about "the undeserving poor" so making people jump through hoops to show they're looking for work, and adding a lot of red tape to prove they deserve food and a roof over their head, because Murdoch printed a story once that someone on benefits made more than the queen, and everyone believed it.
And of course, they're the ones that mean we can't afford anything, but the billionaires in the Panama papers 🤔
