I mean, yes the assets of the wealthy should be seized to fund high speed rail, of course.
The lib is correct here but only by accident.
The problem is you know they’re not extending it to the bourgeoisie as a whole, or even just the ultra-wealthy bourgeoisie. It’s the old “punish just the bad billionaires” lib mentality.
It's the "bad king" monarchist trope re-emerging in modern times with a Liberal filter. The "bad president" will bring famine and war and despair, while the "good president" will have a peaceful and prosperous rule. The weather shifts, the world rebels against an improper and unkingly ruler, all must be set right by replacing them with a good president

trump the only bad billionaire
just gotta wait for it to be over first
I think what gets me most here is the premise you can move past "this shitshow" and the Trump family still ends up rich
well of course. don't you know that when we VOOT for gavin newsom in 2028 everything will be fixed?
They're getting so close without actually getting it.
jenson probably swindled more money from "har' workin' merican man" this year than trump old-school swindles (aside from kushner saudi dealings, but libs like saudis)
