If that's true, then we are using it right. I'd only use a slur on beings that are less than human and ultra rich fit that pereftly. And as well read as the rich are, they know what happens when a being is considered less than human. >:D

motherfucker is a literal Skeksis
I dont think it is a slur. To be rich is even to this day associated with good qualities.
in other words, the word rich doesnt reflect reality and we have to weed it out
I think grabber is more suitable, because they grab property away from the commons.
Release the grip!
And much like racists using racial slurs to express how much they hate, we use “tax the rich” while hating you
every day someone doesn't suck my trump its racism.
Okay, here's the politically correct version then:
Take a portion of the income and wealth of people of wealth they don't plan on investing in a short period of time (not paid out as wages, etc.).
Well he's not wrong, it's definitely hateful. We don't say it because we think it's fair they get billions and we have to scrape by while doing the actual work.
To quote Tony Soprano: OH, POOR YOU!
Billionaires are people, too. We are leaders in technology, in industry, in finance. Look at history. Do you know who else vilified a tiny minority of financiers and progressive thinkers called the Jews?
Gavin Belson
If billionaires are people too, why don't they act like it? 🤔
yeet the rich.
Gee, would've been a shame if that rich snob is taxed and his money is redistributed to the poor and pious.
eat the rich
The ultra-rich can be very ignorant.
One day the masses will take everything from Steve Roth or his heirs. That is a fact of life and nothing can stop it. You can be sure that it doesn't stop at a little wealth tax.
He's really not going like "Eat The Rich."
wealth is not a racial sect.
Eat the rich. This country is infested with wealthy parasites.
Well,
He's a cunt then
irresponsible and dangerous
For whom? The mayor? Isn't that a threat?
Ken Griffin should be taxed
There's nothing wrong with 'Tax the Rich'. It's no better or worse than the usual phrases 'Eat the Rich', or 'Suffocate the Rich by Stretching Their Scrotum Up Over Their Head'.
He’s really not going to like what comes after “tax the rich,” then.
Vampires suck.
Alright. Normalize both then. And remember that "tax" is a euphemism.
