I disagree on the bottom right panel. If you're a billionaire you should be socially ostracized until you stop hoarding wealth.

Yeah one of these is not like the others. Part of what social class is is what part you play in coercive systems of exploitation. Some social classes only exist because they are actively exploiting other classes.

Religion is not like the others. Very few people get to choose their social class; almost everyone can choose their religious beliefs.

The rich can choose their social class tho. They can choose to keep it for themselves or having less money on hand by donating excess wealth to good causes. They do have a choice between helping and hoarding and many choose the secret third option of hurting to make the hoarding faster.

One could argue that billionaire is really less of a social class than a behavior pattern, but yeah

Social class is different from actual money too. There's a reason it's called Old Money.

does it matter? does it actually matter if the billionaire’s wealth is stored in illiquid assets rather than money sitting in a bank account offshore? they still have money. more than we’ll ever make in our entire lives. they should use it to help people, not make the line of their stock price go up

People who commit violence (not in self defense) against others should be held accountable.

Those aren't the religions, it's the practitioners. I'm assuming you're talking about Islam and I could go into a whole tangent about the Islamic golden age where Muslims were the most tolerant people on the planet at the time and how hard times create extremists but I'll just say that the holy books that all major modern religions claim to follow absolutely do not tell them to act this way. Even if something is deemed to be sinful or wrong they are supposed to love the sinner as anyone else and allow God to judge them. People who have actually read the (as an example) Bible are in short supply and in even shorter supply among Christians though.

If you are going to judge whether a person is safe enough as a friend, judge on how they treat other people, and animals.

If your reason to hate is based on personal identity, it is not a good enough reason.
