Make CEOs Afraid Again.
It was fun watching the "All In" podcast about this. Half of the regulars didn't even show up so they had to get seat warmers. And then they dropped the most hilarious out-of-touch takes of course, and also demonstrated their inability to sympathize with anyone who's been a victim of the death machine while sympathizing with the CEO "he had two kids" but you could also tell how visibly uncomfortable they were even talking about it. One guy even winched at one point. It was glorious.
I don't know the thing you're referring to. Could you please share a link?
I dropped it here but didn't get any traction, maybe because I didn't describe it well enough:

The "all in" podcast is hosted by four goulish Silicon Valley VC assholes. The audience is mostly simps but it's an entertaining listen just to see how out-of-touch and self-absorbed they are.
People did at one point. Didn't Jesus flat out say that rich people are going to hell? One of those conveniently forgotten lines in the Bible.
isn't there like no mention of hell at all?
Not "hell" verbatim but "lake of fire" is mentioned a couple times and according to Revelations that's where people who don't go to heaven go.
"Blazing furnace" is another common hell-adjacent term
That revelations thing sure is fucked up. But then again if you're still suspending your disbelief after the talking snake in Genesis, any of the locusts with human faces shit in rev is on the table I suppose.
I'm not Christian. But I do feel the need to point out the notion that Jesus never mentioned hell is in no way supported by the Bible, he absolutely did.
