Familiar with the Robber Barons?

(Google) AI Overview
"Robber barons" is a term used to describe wealthy and powerful 19th-century American industrialists and financiers who amassed huge fortunes, often through unethical and monopolistic practices. They dominated industries like railroads, steel, and oil, and their methods often involved exploiting workers, disregarding competition, and forming trusts to control markets. While they contributed to the rapid industrialization of the nation, their actions were widely criticized for being ruthless and unfair.

Okay, but you've misrepresented the O/P's argument which is a smelly pile of overgeneralizations.

Other than "They deserve to be burnt at the stake," how is the rest of what he posted a misrepresentation and overgeneralization? The history of the Robber Barons culture is well documented and proves the OP's point.

You make a valid point, but I'm attempting to bring us back to the overgeneralizations expressed in the O/P.
You're comparing apples to oranges, methinks.

Your free to think that but the overgeneralizations are epitomized by the Age of the Robber Barrons.
How Robber Barons Flaunted Their Money During the Gilded Age
During the Gilded Age—the decades between the end of the Civil War in 1865 and the turn of the century—the explosive growth of factories, steel mills and railroads driven by the Second Industrial Revolution made a small, elite class of businessmen incredibly rich. By 1890, the wealthiest 1 percent of American families controlled 51 percent of the nation’s real and personal property.
Among the richest of the rich were the so-called robber barons, whose extreme avarice drove them to use unethical business practices and exploit workers to create lucrative monopolies, and in the process amass fortunes that would amount to billions of dollars in today’s money.

What percentage of the nation’s real and personal property does the 1 percent own today? More or less than 51 percent?

His post is simplistic and stupid. That points towards a MAGA freak posting.

I agree that the OP was stupid and simplistic. However, I have heard Leftists say things like, “If a man believes he is a woman, than ‘she’ is a woman.” So given that, a Leftist saying something stupid like the OP is certainly believable.

Jeremy Renner is rich. Look what he does with the Big Brothers and Sisters.



He hosts a summer camp for foster kids.



Evil rich guy. Let's kill him.

Jeremy Renner shouldn’t be killed for being rich. He should be killed for starring in Hansel & Gretel: Witch Hunters.
