Pretty sure parent is making a glib reference to the common “eat the rich” saying. It’s meant to be a provocative way to illustrate a larger message of anti-capitalism and the immorality of extreme wealth disparity.

Let’s demonise a subset of the population and joke about murdering them just like my ideological comrades did in the 20th century! Look how provocative I’m being.

Defending billionaires is an even more ammoral act than making a joke you don’t like, comrade.

I dislike seeing radicals joke about murdering their enemies. It dehumanises them which helps extremism takes hold.

Of course that is the point of such jokes, but you shouldn’t be surprised if people call you out on it.
