Don’t get me wrong, I’m all for composting elon, but that alone won’t change much.
Never forget - we are many, they are few, there is enough composting to go around, but more importantly, we need to already be creating the foundations for an alternative, better, society, so that when we abolish the systems that currently govern ours, we have a solid and equitable framework to fall back on and build from.
Sure, but that wouldn’t take a whole line of individuals, that wold take a well organised group of a dozen or two, while more groups of a dozen or two go give the other billionaires a visit with their own trash bag, and others go and give some politicians a visit, and some bigger groups take control of the means of production, all while the largest chunk of working class people build the medical and educational and communal support that they need to pull all of that off and come back to once they’re done.
I know beating elon up sounds like masses of fun to masses of people, but it isn’t your revolution (“your” the individual, not you personally), it’s ours. If you’re genuinely that enthusiastic about being the one to pull the trigger, there will be plenty of opportunity, but you’ll have a much better shot at it if you organise with others (E: even if we go on this being the imaginary world in the comic where the purge is real, if you think in that scenario he wouldn’t have pentagon level security and mow all the people with their bags of batteries down with machine guns, you’ve not been paying attention).

I suppose beating him to death with a trash bag full of 9v batteries on live TV might set the right example.

I could definitely solo elongated gut with a sack of 9v wdym a dozen?
It may not change much, but damn would it ever feel good.
