I know Lemmy hates rich people but am I the only one who thinks this is too much?

[โ€“] [email protected] 1 points 1 hour ago

i know liberals dont have a brain, but how bad must it be for fellow citizens until you accept that this car should not even exist in the first place as long as others have to live on the streets?

maybe try this:

  1. are you for a more or less fair world?

if your answer is yes, please proceed to question 2:

  1. how many people have access to a washing machine?

you'll notice: not even half of the people. and there are not enough metals on earth for everyone to have a washing machine.

  1. are you willing to give up you washing machine/car to prove you did not lie on question 1?

so owning this sportscar always makes you the asshole. always. you can not be a humble nice person and own an R8. I double checked: 100% assholes.

For me it depends very much on the person owning the car.

From the phrasing of the words I'm convinced it's an insufferable prick, that besides owning the car has done much more to get this treatment.

But on this matter I remain convincible of the contrary.

Seconded.

A millionaire at 20 buying a status sports car kinda has limited possibilities.

Family money, got lucky and sold some IP, or did vapid human stuff on social media as an influencer.

None of these things are necessarily an indication of what kind of person they are, however being worth million(s?) at 20 leans pretty heavily towards entitled douchewad vs well grounded commoner.

Nah, I don't particularly care about property damage to wealthy people. They have plenty and it gets money back into the community they're stealing their wealth from. Especially when on a societal level, they care about property more than people.

Exactly, the vandalism is just job creation, the wealthy are always touting that as one of their virtues, so I see no problem here.

Nah, it's fine. As another commenter pointed out, owner said so himself:

itโ€™s not much of a loss for me, I make ยฃ6-7,000 in my sleep.

I mean the guy is an arrogant prick, but still, just... why?

[โ€“] [email protected] 15 points 20 hours ago

The "virgin" feels targeted so "the guy is an arrogant prick" is a good candidate for your why.

However even it was just opportunistic tagging of someone's conspicuous show of wealth, I'm definitely not against people becoming aware of how their community sees them as compared to how their Instagram following sees them.
