Translation for ya:
Viva la Revolution - IE Off with the aristocrat's heads, is far less likely these days for lots of reasons.
Though neither the parent author, nor I, are advocating for that response, I'm using it as an extreme to tug your frame of focus along the correct discussion axis.
The least of which is that the super wealthy have both private and public security forces on speed dial. Even minor protest groups or 'gentleman's disputes' like a more basic bare assault of vigilante protest are also off the table. There is no available check against uncouth behavior which violates the social and moral expectations.
- gruez 5y agoBut how does that have anything to do with being "shielded from repercussions by either minimum wage support reps or automated phone systems"? If you really have a grievance against Chime's CEO or whatever, you can still inflict violence on them. Look up their corporate office address, procure a weapon, wait outside until they leave work, and then do... whatever. There are many reasons why we don't see people inflict violence on "the people who are actually responsible for your problems", but it's not because of "minimum wage support reps or automated phone systems".
