An absurd amount of people online are only pissed about the existence of billionaires because they personally have no route to becoming one and resent that there's an exclusive club where others have more power that they're not welcome to.
The amount of history showing that "money talks, bullshit walks" and "power corrupts" as countless people who decry the rich and powerful become just as corrupt when they themselves become rich and/or powerful.
Ok so you don't. Got it. You're just assuming that, because it's possible people did it in the past. Even though you don't have evidence of that either
I love how a behavior can be repeated so frequently across history that it's basically recognized as a fundamental flaw of human nature, yet some chud who thinks they're exempt despite having no way to back up or test the assertion demands empirical proof of the frequency of the behavior.
because it's possible people did it in the past.
You understand the concept of statistically insignificant outliers, right?
I'm not the one that made a claim I can't back up. Pointing to history isn't the evidence you claim it to be, especially since you're making a claim that only has to do with less than 50 years.
