We really love it when celebrity millionaires lecture us on the evils of capitalism. Tell us more, Mark Ruffalo:
It’s time for an economic revolution. Capitalism today is failing us, killing us, and robbing from our children’s future. https://t.co/OnNm6CYrWK

Of course, his pinned tweet right now is him trying to sell tickets to his next movie. In other words, CAPITALISM:
Today’s a big day for not only me but also for the entire team behind @DarkWatersMovie.
If you're in NY or LA, #DarkWaters is playing in theaters NOW, it opens everywhere else 12/6. I can't wait for you all to see it ➡️ https://t.co/mYCWPLWDRp pic.twitter.com/ljgUfKbE3h

Twitchy favorite Nick Searcy has a helpful idea if Ruffalo is serious about all of this:
Start by giving up your capital, Mark. https://t.co/WlmLfZUBwL

You could show you're serious by writing a check to the US treasury today. Maybe that would spark the revolution.

Right? There’s no law that says he has to keep all of his money:
Hey man, your accountant called and wanted to know where you want to invest your latest Avengers: Endgame royalty check.

And giving money to other wealthy capitalists doesn’t count:

Maybe he will Venmo us money if we ask him nicely?
Does that mean you’re Venmoing all of us ??

And this is a good reminder that the people who read the words are paid too much:
Whenever actors open their mouths & voice their own daft opinions, I am reminded how crucial screenwriters are to the entertainment industry https://t.co/FxEHryP1EJ

Good point. Does Ruffalo even give up his salary to help lower paid guild members?
Not a single one of these clowns that hate capitalism in Hollywood refuse their paychecks, and take their minimal base salary from the Screen Actors Guild rates instead.
Ain't that funny, @MarkRuffalo? pic.twitter.com/Qno8CiIJ0T

And don’t even get us started on all the money he’s made thanks to China:
Remember all that money you made from China? https://t.co/kRiL7Fs6KH

If only capitalism could work so well for us:
Seems to have worked for you.

In reality, he’s the one “killing us” if he believes his own BS:
This is what capitalism did for Mark and others

Dare to dream:
I can’t wait until I’m rich enough to hate capitalism.
