the concept of a fools day used to be about power inversion. the pranks poked fun at those with real power - the fool became king and the king was a fool

now, we prank each other, often cruelly, despite prankee and pranker being quite dispossessed and many wait for corporations with more power than any of us to shower the 'good' pranks upon us

it's a pity we can't have a billionaire in the stocks, as a treat

on the one hand, the whole concept was built to keep people content and that's bad

on the other, i'd really like to throw the contents of amazon piss bottles at jeff bezos

thinking about it, a lot of billionaires might opt to not quite be that wealthy if it meant enduring fools week, month, year, the seizing of the means of production
