What can we do to escalate this? Seriously, is there any social media goading that we could positively engage in that would justify me getting burner accounts on both their no longer relevant social media sites?
They need to be prodded towards lethal weaponry.

Yes, please. Throw all these billionaire doofuses in a cage fight together. Nobody cares who wins, we just leave the cage locked and walk away.

Eh, I’m a cynic. Them having a fight would just raise both their standings in the eyes of many of their admirers. And the press would report it as them being great sports to do this silly thing for the entertainment value.

Zuckerberg won the gold medal in the Nogi Master 1 White Belt Feather Weight Division and the Silver medal in the Gi Master 2 White Belt Feather Weight Division, BJJ Tour confirmed.
You can see him lose a match in this video. His expression at the end is priceless.

Yeah, I want something where “top dog” of capitalism requires not only a minimum amount of money but also winning in a fighting tournament. Capitalism is of course about making the rest of us suffer, but I’d love it if they just tossed us a bone every now and then.
