Is 1mil$ usd in free assets enough to be considered one or is this like not cutting it anymore?

Cause I always have problems where to put myself in this debate. I still wanna evade taxes but also want to be able to shit at rich ppl for free points online

Tax wise I am a fucking farmer can you believe. I played manor lords and stardew valley though

Dude, the amount of money you have is not really the point, but in this world rich ppl usually are such because they exploit workers. If you made your wealth entirely by your own work you are not a capitalist, so enjoy life, pay your taxes and I wish you the best.

I am a half capitalist half communist. Is there a name for this?

[–] Stizzah@lemmygrad.ml 1 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Please elaborate: in which way you are half capitalist?

My father was communist and my mother was capitalist. I am mixed breed

No, you are either a troll or you think that capitalism and communism are DNA traits, in which case you are simply stupid. I don't know what's worst.
