@clarity@xoxo.zone Pretty much why I tend to instead say bourgeoisie or capitalist instead of "rich" or worse "1%", even though I feel like that could make some people react badly.

@lanodan@queer.hacktivis.me "rent-seekers" is a somewhat less poisoned word in the discourse

@lanodan@queer.hacktivis.me @clarity@xoxo.zone “Predatory capitalists” may be a redundant phrase, but for those temporarily embarrassed millionaires, it may provide enough mental room to oppose their actions instead of rejecting the message entirely, while still describing the actions that they take and not their monetary worth.
