Orthanc @orthanc.nz · 06/10/2026The general reason for the "there are no moral billionaires" is that to assess that level of wealth, no matter how good you are in your field, generally means that at some level money has been not fairly distributed to the labour producing the work. 230
Simon Lyall @slyall.bsky.social · 06/10/2026Sure but then you could say the same about everyone worth $10m or $100m. Arguing that billionaires are immoral since everything business should basically return some more than a middle-class wage to the owner is just silly If people don't like capitalism say so 100
kyle @kyledchurch.bsky.social · 06/10/2026i mean you could day that about people worth millions, and you'd be right. at that point we're talking scale of exploitation of people and/or planet. its immoral in the first instance, billionaires just increase the magnitude. 100
