gclef 🇺🇦<p>"Sociologist Brooke Harrington says that for the world's wealthiest people, many of the laws and rules followed by the rest of us simply don't apply. The lives of the richest people in the world are so different from those of the rest of us, it's almost literally unimaginable. National borders are nothing to them. They might as well not exist. The laws are nothing to them. They might as well not exist."</p><p><a href="https://www.npr.org/2016/10/25/499213698/whats-it-like-to-be-rich-ask-the-people-who-manage-billionaires-money" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">npr.org/2016/10/25/499213698/w</span><span class="invisible">hats-it-like-to-be-rich-ask-the-people-who-manage-billionaires-money</span></a></p><p><a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/Billionaires" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Billionaires</span></a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/Broligarchs" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Broligarchs</span></a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/Wealth" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Wealth</span></a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/Musk" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Musk</span></a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/ElonMusk" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ElonMusk</span></a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/TechBros" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>TechBros</span></a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/RichPeople" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>RichPeople</span></a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/Laws" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Laws</span></a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/Democracy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Democracy</span></a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/HiddenBrain" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>HiddenBrain</span></a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/NPR" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>NPR</span></a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/NetworkState" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>NetworkState</span></a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/CryptoPolitics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>CryptoPolitics</span></a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/AI" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>AI</span></a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/Politics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Politics</span></a></p>

MikeDunnAuthor<p>Today in Labor History March 11, 1850: French anarchist Clément Duval was born. His theory of individual reclamation, which justified theft, and other crimes, as both educational and legitimate ways to redistribute the wealth, influenced the Illegalists of the 1910s, including Jules Bonnot, of the Bonnot Gang. According to Paul Albert, "The story of Clement Duval was lifted and, shorn of all politics, turned into the bestseller Papillon."</p><p><a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/workingclass" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>workingclass</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/LaborHistory" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>LaborHistory</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/anarchism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>anarchism</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/illegalism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>illegalism</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/prison" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>prison</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/deportation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>deportation</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/wealth" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>wealth</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/BonnotGang" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>BonnotGang</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/papillon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>papillon</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/individualism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>individualism</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/novel" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>novel</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/fiction" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>fiction</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/writer" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>writer</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/author" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>author</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/books" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>books</span></a> <span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://a.gup.pe/u/bookstadon" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@<span>bookstadon</span></a></span></p>
