Real-estate advertisement for a $100m house "Makes Me Want To Be A Socialist"

I thought their mission was to enhance shareholder value? Who knew that they were really conceptual artists that accepted no pay for their work?

I prefer the mythbuster version, although it isn’t as sexy.

Seriously.
I mean, if you’re going to go for some sort of modernity, fucking do it right. It’s not hard to find examples in southern ca.

Exactly. It’s extremely sterile. Which is not that uncommon I guess if you’re going for modern. But like I said earlier on another comment - if you’re going to go for modern, do it right.
I realize this isn’t done in that style, but take a traditional post and beam house. Very modern, but livable.
I did a google search for LA midcentury homes and found a plethora of interesting homes that look like you’d actually enjoy being there. No stupid gold Lamborghini, though. I’m a car guy and I hate them. They are so stupid.

This doesn’t make me want to be a socialist. It almost makes me want to be a terrorist*. And rich people wonder why they get so much hate.

*Note for any NSA/FBI/CIA agents who may be monitoring this. This is what is known as a satirical comment, or exaggerating for effect. I am a pacifist. That probably still makes you want to lock me up, but there you go.

Wait… I’m confused. Was that video supposed to help sell the house?

It didn’t even mention how much closet space it has.

Wanting to be a socialist is less practical than, you know, actually being a socialist.

I like that.

Just throw your shit it the garage. I think it’ll fit.

Very nice, but why are there so many bookcases?

Do they tho? Seems to me like in the U.S. at least, they get little more than admiration and envy. And not even enough hate to push them into paying their fair share of taxes.

I have to wonder how much that stupid gold ring in the fountain out front costs. Is it solid gold, or just gold-plated? What’s to prevent someone from planing a heist of that ring, and for that matter the entire house? At what point WILL the people pick up the flaming pitchforks and sharpen their guillotines, exactly?

Great question. A regular argument with my wife. I believe we’ll hit the point where the people who’ve lost their jobs to productivity tech will rise up and demand the rich be taxed for a guaranteed minimum income. She thinks if they haven’t yet, after all the cuts to the safety net of the last 25 years, why should they. They’ve been dying the death of a thousand cuts and still voted for a billionaire con man who was obviously telling them whatever they wanted to hear. Sadly, she’s a social worker and far more of an expert on the non-working class than I am.

That’s a fair point. Jesus, that’s how Trump got elected, isn’t it? Ugh.
