    I can name several, and that’s just women I know personally. Taylor Swift is fine and all but it’s not like she’s some elevated version of the gender. Fandoms get really weird.

      She’s not fine. She’s a billionaire landlord who flies in private jets.

        Ding ding ding

        I’m sure as a person she’s okay, but yes.

        Billionaires shouldn’t exist, ever

        Private Jets shouldn’t exist, ever

          I do not think there is a separation between billionaires the people from billionaires as a construct. I really think they are genuinely bad people. It’s impossible to remain subject to the same stressors of life that bind society with that kind of money. It begins to distance one and they break away from the fabric of society but with an immense footprint upon that society. Chances are you are a pretty good person. If you came into a billion dollars tomorrow, you wouldn’t be a good person within a year. It corrupts absolutely.

            If you came into a billion dollars tomorrow and had the opportunity to help so many people but kept it all for yourself you’re already not a good person. You don’t even need to wait a year.

              If I came into a billion dollars I’d spend the rest of my time attempting to spend it helping people. I would expect the same of anyone else. Someone’s going to inherit a billionaire fortune soon and just give it all away, at least thats my hope. Someone’s gotta lead by example.

          Bluesky shitlibs would have some strong words for you, as well as anyone (me) that would dare disrespect their queen, their fierce feminine icon!
