The elite must be shitting themselves about how much joy us poors are finding out of this.

[–] Siethron@lemmy.world 58 points 2 weeks ago (9 children)

STOP CALLING THEM ELITE.

The word 'elite' implies they are societies best. These rich dregs keep dragging us down.

[–] Passerby6497@lemmy.world 22 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Whenever I hear the rich described as "the elite", my brain immediately converted it to ThE eLiTe

Meh, the connotation is still clear.

[–] frosch@sh.itjust.works 10 points 2 weeks ago (3 children)

How about we just airquote them? The „Elite“ sounds condescending enough imo

[–] tetris11@lemmy.ml 7 points 2 weeks ago

I assumed we always were

[–] RangerJosie@lemmy.world 7 points 2 weeks ago

Parasite works for me.

[–] ghen@sh.itjust.works 5 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Yeah trying to find the perfect words is counterproductive. We just need to eat the rich. We're not literally eating them but everybody knows what that means.

True, if you look at people taking power and control in MAGA America, many are there because of their white skin and not resume or skill

Edit sorry if this comes across as racist, the intent is more to highlight how some of these people bring nothing else to the table

[–] CeruleanRuin@lemmings.world 8 points 2 weeks ago

I call them the leech class.

[–] Hossenfeffer@feddit.uk 7 points 2 weeks ago

Scum floats to the top.

[–] Semi_Hemi_Demigod@lemmy.world 6 points 2 weeks ago

They're rent-seeking parasites

[–] KingThrillgore@lemmy.ml 5 points 2 weeks ago

Call them gentry

I keep scrolling the news to see if they know anything new about him, and they know absolutely nothing. It's amazing.

[–] dream_weasel@sh.itjust.works 8 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Or at least they have released nothing.

What they needed was an archery contest if they wanted to catch him.

This whole thing feels right out of a comic book or a movie. That's exactly how it would go down too.

Will people really go there or is this a joke?

They fucking Naruto ran at Area 51... It could happen

[–] Earflap@reddthat.com 11 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

They ran around in a town outside groom lake and never really approached the base because they wisely understood they would all be killed.

[–] Sabata11792@ani.social 15 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

People gathered to take pictures in front of a bunch of cringing guards and no one was angry about anything. Everyone is actually angry over this so I'd say people may show.

Sure would be a shame if people mass produced AI imagery to give false leads...

[–] BonesOfTheMoon@lemmy.world 17 points 2 weeks ago

Goodness, sure would be a shame if someone told me where I could do that.

The biggest player is a company called EviCore by Evernorth…

Just a letter off from “EvilCore” - could they be any more on-the-nose?

[–] dependencyinjection@discuss.tchncs.de 5 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Wasn’t it Evil Corp in Mr Robot too?

Looks a bit like Will Smith to me.

Or, maybe, Lucy Liu.

Or, maybe, Patrick Stewart.

Or maybe, Elmer Fudd.

Hard to pin to down. Sorry. No, I probably couldn't pick him or her out of a line-up.

[–] BonesOfTheMoon@lemmy.world 6 points 2 weeks ago

While we have Nick Fuentes under arrest let's charge him with this too.

The backpack is the Everyday Backpack from Peak Design!

I need help identifying the jacket though. I wanna cosplay assassin-kun!

[–] CeruleanRuin@lemmings.world 6 points 2 weeks ago

Don't give them any more leads.

Sir Charles Spencer Chaplin lost in his own a lookalike contest.

[–] JasonDJ@lemmy.zip 8 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)
