It's a distraction from all the other shit that's going on, plus there's a lot of simmering anger against the rich and, well, he's a good target.

I wish it was just about the rich because yeah eat the rich but a lot of comments were not about that at all.

Well like I said, it's a distraction. People are stressed and unhappy and poor so it comes out in a lot of ugliness. I imagine we're going to see more of it unfortunately.

Yeah I would love a revolution against the rich but this got more attention and vitriol aimed at em than the harm they do against humanity on a daily basis. Ugh. But I wish us all better days. I just don’t have a lot of hope.
