„Inzwischen gehen 872.000 Deutsche keiner geregelten Erwerbstätigkeit mehr nach, sondern leben von Dividenden, Gewinnausschüttungen oder Mieteinnahmen.“
The good life for everybody is cheaper than morbid wealth for one percent.

The next time someone tells you that "we don't have money for pensions", remember this report about the tax of the elite:
"Wealth inequality is evident worldwide, including in #Europe. As of early 2025, the wealthiest 5% of the population in the eurozone controlled 45% of net household wealth, while the top 10% held 57.4%, according to the European Central Bank (#ECB).
This concentration of wealth keeps the debate over wealth taxes at the centre of discussions in many countries. Most recently, French billionaire Bernard Arnault strongly opposed a proposed 2% levy on citizens with assets over €100 million, calling it “an offensive that is deadly for our economy”.
Over the past three decades, several countries have repealed individual wealth taxes. The number of #OECD members levying such taxes fell from 12 in 1990 to just 4 in 2017. They are European countries: #Austria (1994), #Denmark (1997), #Germany (1997), the #Netherlands (2001), #Finland, #Iceland, and #Luxembourg (all in 2006), and #Sweden (2007)."

Multi-millionaire pundit with a net-worth of over 10 million wants the government to murder you if you can't pay your rent.
Tax the billionaires out of existence, and a vast number of our other societal problems will be enormously reduced.
Plomari, #Lesvos: Local businesses expressing solidarity with #Palestine are targeted by #Zionists. According to complaints from residents and workers, in recent weeks there have been cases of aggressive behaviour, negative and defamatory comments on online platforms and direct intimidation of workers by people of Israeli origin.
...The incident came to a head when a store employee was subjected to ironic comments and insulting treatment inside the store by members of a family of Israeli visitors. One young man mockingly called her a "supporter", leaving clear hints about her political stance, and shortly afterwards his mother allegedly stopped her in the street to take a photo and directed an ironic remark at her, which was seen as a clear attempt at intimidation.
Reactions in the local community were immediate. Residents expressed their strong annoyance at the occurrence of such phenomena, stressing that Plomari was and remains a hospitable place, but not a silent one. Village society, they argue, has historically demonstrated solidarity, humanity and political sensitivity, and will not be silent in the face of pressure or intimidation practices.

State of the Cult speech, July 2025 (transcript)
So, uh, hi. Um.
clears throat
Welcome, ladies, gentlemen, non-binary, and a-gender friends. I'm pleased to inform you that we have made the following descisions.
Theology Update 1: #Cats are ("little g") gods.
Those who are able to care for cats are strongly encouraged to do so. If you are allergic to cats, and have some money to spare, you can donate to a local no-kill cat shelter or 'Spray-and-Neuter Commuter' or whatnot.
A future goal, when we have ALL THE MONEY, is to open a cat shelter adjacent to our churchy building. With planters full of organic catnip around the catio.
Theology Update 2: #Puppets are important somehow.
This one is in progress. Maybe high-level members will have an official spokes-puppet? I'm totally using the D&D 5e homebrew "Muppetborn" race I found online as inspiration, and the Muppet Wiki category on religion as Sacred Guidance.
Oh! That reminds me!
Here's what I'm picturing for a sanctuary - a bunch of cozy little gaming areas in a cool building. With a library. And a big ol' kitchen & dining space. The rest of the building should be boring stuff like admin. With an adjoining greenhouse.
There will also be a 21+ greenhouse nearby. We need guards. Maybe someone who is allergic to cats can care for guard doggos?
Um ... let's see ... what else was I ...?
OH! Fundraising!
When you #EatTheRich, remember to grab a bunch of cash!
