    Jack Ma didn’t get knocked down because he’s rich.

    It was because he pissed off the CPC.

    Not that I want to defend any mega-rich person, but he seemed to be using the influence that his wealth allowed him to speak out against actual oppressors.

      There are no good billionaires. Only people who bypass regulations and cause immense suffering can get there. Idk why y’all are so mad about China getting rid of one lol

        The world ain’t binary.

        Even among shitty billionaires there is a range of more and less bad.
