The response of the internet should be a wake us call to the billionaires of the world. The kindling for revolution has piled up and it is only a matter of time before they all end on its pyre.
I don't expect things to go shift like they did during the Guilded Age. That was the aberration. Historically it has not been as nearly as bloodless.

What are the odds the US government will label killing CEOs an act of terrorism and use that as an excuse to crack down on anyone publicly supporting acts like this? This all reminds me of Radicalized by Cory Doctorow.
That seems like something someone might try but I could see how that might solidify it into movement and extend awareness of the cause. It would definitely lead to people using code words and phrases.

there really should be a movement to crowd out any information that's deemed helpful under junk reports.

There's a reason why the poor cheer men like Robin Hood
