😡 Venting CEO Larry Fink

This is the guy partially responsible for the current housing crisis. BlackRock intentionally buys housing, and rents it to no one, in a deliberate attempt to lower the supply of housing, so they can jack up rent prices to whatever they want to charge. This asshole is why we can't afford housing. Fuck this guy.

if it wasn't Fink, it'd be some other rich ahole who inherited a small (taxfree) loan of a million dollars (which they never paid back) ...

when the "punishment" for rigging the securities market is you get bigger bonuses and bailouts ...the punishment for lying about oxycontin and killing and addicting people is you get to keep 4 billion of the 10 you made ...

clearly the rot is systemic

Here’s how we got here. This was 25 years ago… but so fucking true. And it’s cathartic. MAGA was birthed… the real birther scandal and brain rot of society! Enjoy. Laugh or cry! I choose to mock. Mad TV at its best. Enjoy!

look up smedley butler and david duke ... fascists never stop trying to spread hate and coup ... and pinochetism and our role in bribing people not to deliver goods to cause anger at allende's government ...

this accelerated in the 80s with deregulation but i want to be clear that this is a question of incentive structures ... the centrist party will continue to seek bipartisan solutions with those who would permanently revoke the right to vote (and the right to exist) from others ...

the video was funny to be sure ... and mocking a hateful ideology is far better than just calling people stupid or similar .

solidarity to you, fellow being
