THE PERSUADERS by Anand Giridharadas @AnandWrites

So I wrote in @nytopinion about four billionaires, four myths, and this remarkable, revelatory week. https://t.co/ZOwz0JSOPi — PolitiTweet.org

It is not only the vast political power of billionaires that keeps us keeping them around, it’s also the popular embrace of certain myths — about the generosity, the genius, the renegade spirit, the above-it-ness of billionaires, to name a few. — PolitiTweet.org

Billionaires, remember, exist at our collective pleasure. If enough of us decided to, we could enact labor, tax, antitrust and regulatory policies to make it hard for anyone to amass that much wealth while so many beg for scraps. — PolitiTweet.org

I want to thank @elonmusk, @JeffBezos, @SBF_FTX, and Donald Trump for revealing so nakedly this week how the billionaire pretensions of public benevolence are fraudulent. You did us all a service. https://t.co/ZOwz0JBdqI — PolitiTweet.org

In recent years, a swelling chorus of Americans has grown critical of the nation’s bajillionaires. But this week, that chorus was drowned out by a far louder and more urgent case against them. It was made by the bajillionaires themselves. https://t.co/ZOwz0JSOPi — PolitiTweet.org

This extraordinary week offered as plain a reminder as is possible: Billionaires are not our saviors. They are our mistake. https://t.co/ZOwz0JSOPi — PolitiTweet.org

One of the reasons no one should be a billionaire is that people should have the space and dignity to experience personal pain and isolation while not being able to ramify their individual struggles through the whole society. — PolitiTweet.org

Honestly, man, I’m sorry. No matter what you achieve in the world, losing connection with your own family hurts so much. I wish you the power to heal your family and find peace. Only then will the rest of us have any chance of finding peace on this app. https://t.co/fZORuGlGTC — PolitiTweet.org

Honestly, man, I feel for you. It must hurt. All the isolation. Your own child staying away. I met your mother and told her you weren’t, in fact, changing the world, and she didn’t dispute that. Just recognize your pain as pain. You don’t need to break this app to prove yourself. — PolitiTweet.org

One of the reasons no one should be a billionaire is that no one’s deep personal pain of disconnection and alienation should become an ideology governing how the rest of us live. — PolitiTweet.org
