Billionaires are the definition of unfairness. And therefore they are natural.

Only From the perspective of civilization, of course, which is only a small fraction of human existence.

From the perspective humanity overall, not only are billionaires unnatural, but civilization in itself is unnatural. Hence all the declining birth rates we see today.




Sounds like something you just made up. Kind of moot to argue what is natural and what isn’t.

Unfairness or billionaires might be natural or not - that doesn’t mean we have to accept their existence.

You know what else is natural? To die at 30 from dysentery or a broken leg.

Natural is a nonsense category


You’re sort of confused. The person I’m responding to claimed it wasn’t natural. He came up with the category. So take your illogical argument up with him.

No mention of billionaires.

Show me one billionaires in nature beside mankind. Billionaires now and then are artificially created by the systems mankind creates. They are an anomaly


This is just garbage. Not going to respond further to this.


You could just say you have no arguments


I do but your citation of the dictionary is fucking obviously not a legit argument so I won’t bother with you.


You came up with the definition part, and dictionaries show definitions.

Billionaires are an extreme example of unfairness not the definition. Otherwise most unfair things would be unfair at all compared to the unfairness of billionaires.
