It’s pretty disgusting to hope that people die just because they are rich. In the real world, that makes you just a trashy edgelord. On Lemmy or Reddit I’m sure you’ll have a positive balance of updoots though.
You could for example, wish the rich people would donate large sums of their fortune to help the needy, instead of wishing that they die.
It’s hardwired in humans or even just all primates. We’re sensitive for relative differences in earnings and wealth and will react rather violently when certain limits are exceeded.
It’s why there were debt jubilees, noblesse oblige or even just high taxes on big income, but modern rich feel this does not apply to them anymore.
They used that one already, all promising to give away most their fortune but mysteriously are all richer than they ever have been…
I don’t really wish them death though, there was a chap with a much better idea actually - he helped the former emperor of his country to learn the importance of hard work and community spirit which allowed him to live happily as a garder.

Not because they’re rich, because they waste their money on this sort of thing rather than using it to do anything helpful.
