6-8 Million isn't considered rich, I'm talking about the Elon Musk "Vacations on the moon" billionaires.

This is in a thread talking about how Cary elwes (and others ranging from $45M-$160M, but all of them are skilled actors who work a lot) lost their homes, so you might want to specify that.

I don’t know if that’s even true though, we can see Elon Musk’s super immature but definitely human emotions on display. He freaked out about his trans daughter and went on an anti-woke crusade, which is depressingly common. There are definitely some ways in which he does NOT think like the rest of us and I think he’s totally lacking morals, but sometimes people are evil.

Edit: that said, musk doesn’t need my defense. Maybe he’s got some humanity left, maybe not. Either way, he’s an active danger to the rest of us as it is. Perhaps he wouldn’t be after aggressive (99.99%, he’d still a multimillionaire) taxes or after going to jail for corruption. Hopefully we’ll see.

So you arent talking about the specific rich people who did lose houses and their irreplaceable personal posessions in these fires? Your talking about Elon Musk who is completely unrelated to the topic and has lost nothing in the fires for some reason?
