Every once and awhile, leftists reveal their anti-capitalist ideology for all to see. Such was the case with former Twitter CEO Richard Costolo on his Twitter account last night.

News had broken that digital currency exchange Coinbase CEO Brian Armstrong had "discouraged employee activism and political discussions at work.” This set Costolo off on an anti-capitalist rant in a discussion with another Twitter user. Costolo wrote in response to Armstrong: “Abandoning the social contract with employees in favor of a purely economic contract in the guise of ‘championship team’ bs makes you a bank with a mission nobody really believes. Good luck getting the best engineers in the world to work at a bank.”

Later, Costolo unleashed his inner Vladimir Lenin, “happily” offering video commentary on the shooting of “me-first capitalists” if a “revolution” were to take place.

Leftists are such cheery,happy people.....Especially when they’re murdering their enemies....

[LIConFem]

What dos this idiot think his public rant will get him if the revolution ever happens? Does he think those he threatens will forget?

[AFB-XYZ]

Him first.

[UnbelievingScumOnTheOtherSide]

I thought advocating murder was against Twitter TOS. Silly me.

When using history as a guide, the first lined up are the scholars, artists, scientists, teachers, and anyone else who is educated and not a party member since they are deemed toxic to Communist ideology. Then comes the bourgeoisie, religious leaders and any worshipers that refuse to adopt state atheism, and finally the ethnic Jews.

It's all in the "manual".

Here’s another Leftist Military Officer ready to step on our scrawny necks and crush our spines. And they wonder why gun sales are off the charts. They better plan for house to house, down and dirty...

[UnbelievingScumOnTheOtherSide]

I have reported the tweet to Twitter for advocating murder of others in violation of TOS.
(ha ha ha)

[stuck_in_new_orleans]

Big media gonna talk about this? They would if he talked about killing democrats

[PAR35]

OK, let’s start in the Silicon Valley companies, and then work up and down the west coast to test the effects of the executions.

[Hambone 1934]

Does Richard want to kill his old boss,JACK DORSEY?????

[blueunicorn6]

Is he out pulling turnips at Turnip Commune #34?

No?

Another rich guy trying to hide behind his comments about rich guys.

[FlyingEagle]

This dweeb looks like he got his lunch money stolen every day in grade school.

Just another bolshevic insurrectionist. When is FedGov going to incarcerate all these criminals?

[cranked]

And given the idiot’s net worth of a few hundred million, this ‘ex-Capitalist should be the first on the firing line for just spewing such idiocy....

[taxcontrol]

Lines are being drawn for the next civil war.

All correct except I think the first ones lined up are the disillusioned idealists and disgruntled zealots who find themselves frozen out of power.

Then it progresses as you said.

[norwaypinesavage]

I wonder if they think about where their pay checks come from.

[Night Hides Not]

He would do well to consider the history of Maximilian Robespierre.

[Hambone 1934]

Richard is worth 300 million dollars..How come he hasn’t given 275 million to the poor???He must be one of those selfish,classless capitalists....

[jmcenanly]

He doesn’t seem to realize that the ones who will supposedly be doing the shooting consider him a capitalist.
