Correct. I am ignoring the family aspect of this story as it doesn’t matter. People die in car crashes every single day. A billionaire dying is a good thing imo. Like a dragon being plucked from the story books and laid before society’s feet. I am also very aware of how callous this is. The family does not deserve this. No one deserves this. But they damn sure do not deserve your empathy either imo. They are part of a family benefiting off suffering and doing nothing to stand out against it. They did their part letting themselves benefit from the unempathetic people they called family.
All of our families seem to have benefited from barbarity, (though I take your point in the here and now.) In addition, I have a hard time blaming those born into that family (particularly the younger members), as none of us choose our birth, and it seems to me that wealth can be as deranging as poverty.
If my words felt calibrated to attack, I apologize and truly appreciate the conversation. You are considerate and I appreciate the handle.
“Wealth can be as deranging as poverty” exactly. The problem is their inherent power from the wealth makes their interactions so much more destructive. Yet most of the time. They are just doing what’s best for their family. It’s hard to be callous tbh but sometimes I feel it’s needed. Lacking empathy is draining as fuck. Lol
Yeah not at all. I love discourse and not arguments. And I dunno I think we had good discourse. 💜
How does the family benefit from suffering?
The only way in my eyes to become a billionaire is off the suffering of others. So their association and ability to spend that money is their benefit. Whether attained by them or others. They still play an important role in the destruction of those other human beings production and value.

So what if I brought a $10 insulin vial to market and sold 100 million units?
Is that taking advantage of the suffering of others? How is being a billionaire different than being a millionaire in that sense? Doesn’t money come when you provide something more valuable than the money to someone else?
It depends on how you are viewing the situation and at what point you are declaring ownership. “I” brought. No you and the people who work for you brought it to market. Instead of sharing that wealth with the workers that created the value. You’ve hoarded it to get rich. And created suffering for those workers as their value was stolen from them to line your pockets. So “you” could bring something to market.
That isn't $1b of wealth or profit. You did not do that alone either.
