      Why do you think so? I didn’t break any rules and it’s not like any of the people who know that billionaire leech on society (but I repeat myself) are going to go on Lemmy to see my joke 🤷

        Wishing ill on someone purely because they’re wealthy is gross, and also just plain cringe.

          First of all, I didn’t wish ill on anyone. I made a joke about it being unfair to connect an innocent non public person to Moscow Mitch, then pretended TP concede the point because of her billionaire status.

          Secondly, being a billionaire isn’t just “wealthy”. It’s a grotesque level of wealth hoarding that’s impossible to achieve without abusing and/or severely depriving people who have done you no harm. THAT’S “plain cringe”.
