Well the $70,000 average recouped per person in this effort would certainly imply that those targeted are indeed “rich”, or at least high income.

Obviously both can be true, depending on perspective. But being rich is a spectrum.
If you’re a poor studen, the 40 year old who can pay cash for a car but cannot retire still may seem rich but could very well be firmly middle class.
Someone in their 20s who never has to work is more likely to be considered rich by most anyone’s standards. But someone in their 70s who is living modestly in retirement would still meet your second definition but few would consider them actually rich.
I think using net worth is a better measuring stick. In the US someone worth more than $10m is almost certainly living very well off and most would consider them rich.
Does that somehow mean they’re not rich?
Yours, about the economy being fake.
I know you’re (at least partially) joking but wtf are you talking about?

More than 40 million Californians, you mean. Our vote effectively means nothing nationally.
You’re not good at this.

People can agree with specific things he says without idolizing him.
Indeed. I no longer buy Anker as a result.
Believe it or not, by most definitions, suppression of free speech is not (directly) a tenet of fascism.

Always?
I mean, yeah? Kind of? I’d say it’s at least lower-upper class, which some people may consider rich. But, again, in my head rich is more about net worth, not income. Once someone’s investments are working for them then I’d say that’s a key indicator.
