What did you learn today? Share it with us!
We learn something new every day. This is a community dedicated to informing each other and helping to spread knowledge.
The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:
Rules (interactive)
Rule 1- All posts must begin with TIL. Linking to a source of info is optional, but highly recommended as it helps to spark discussion.
** Posts must be about an actual fact that you have learned, but it doesn't matter if you learned it today. See Rule 6 for all exceptions.**
Rule 2- Your post subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material.
Your post subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material. You will be warned first, banned second.
Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.
Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.
Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Posts and comments which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding non-TIL posts.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-TIL posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
Rule 7- You can't harass or disturb other members.
If you vocally harass or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
For further explanation, clarification and feedback about this rule, you may follow this link.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.
Let everyone have their own content.
Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.
Unless included in our Whitelist for Bots, your bot will not be allowed to participate in this community. To have your bot whitelisted, please contact the moderators for a short review.

Eat the rich
first put them into a safari and hunt them
They don't contain enough calories to feed the hungry. That's why we need to tax them out of existence.
Yep,also cap any single person richness to 10 million
You mean $2000
That wouldn't even cover my rent lol
No, if nobody could have more than $2000 in wealth the rent would go way down
No. They'll stack you in tiny holes like a cell in a bee hive. There will be no apartments.
Taxing them is not enough. The capitalist system will continue to enable them to amass power and wealth to overturn any limit on their power in due time.
We must remove the concept of money, private ownership, and wealth in it’s entirety.
B b b b b buuuuut then the undeserving poor will have my money!!!! /s
They'll always take advantage of people in some way. We can't abide the existence of them.
They always wanted to genocide us.
They still want to exterminate us.
We need to be faster than them.
They cause global warming, they cause wars, they cause the economic framework that destroys health, education, housing.
They do not hide their intentions anymore.
This is would not be murder, neither a Revolution, IT would be self defense.
Agreed,we're under attack for so long...
...ok?.....and what are we gonna do about it?
Survive I guess
Be the change you want to see, if you want a "we" you must start with "me". (original poem by Mulligrubs)
What are YOU gonna do about it?
Ill simoly say two things that Im allowed to say here :
I have a gun
Look at my profile picture
The nazis that run this website will not allow me to elaborate any further than this so ....do with that what you will 😏
Nah. But I'd happily feed them to a lion.
Are you sure OP isn't a lion?
On the internet, nobody knows you're a lion.
As a 100% non-lion I can attest that I also enjoy stalking and eating zebras and layinng im the savannah's cooling mud after heated, sexy times with my lionness
Well yes but this has always been claimed but never been proven, which is kind of an important thing
Torture and enslave the rich
Yuck
I'd cook them first of course
Aren't they full of drugs and Botox?
Yeah,probably not the best food
No thanks, too much fat, and also prion disease that cause the rotten brain in the first place. I'll feed the ants.
nah, throw them into woodchippers, then compost the resulting goo until safe, then spread it on farms, and eat the resultant rich, succulent crops.
