      Not when you’re a billionaire buckerino. Taylor swift might be a slightly more ethical billionaire than the rest, but the fact that she is a billionaire at all is a symptom of the underlying systemic problem - the ideal number of billionaires in our world in its current state, is ZERO. Nada. Null.

      You can sit there and sigh all you want, but a billionaire who’s even slightly morally upright won’t be a billionaire for long.

      The only billionaire I’ll ever consider as even slightly ethical, or as someone to look up to, is Chuck Feeney, god rest his soul.

          It must be exhausting making excuses for people hoarding unfathomable amounts of wealth, or are you paid to do that?

            Second of all they’re right. It IS exhausting being like this, but someone has to do it. Because if people aren’t being exhaustingly fed up of the status quo, billionaires will keep fucking us up, down and sideways. I almost wish I COULD be like Ilovethebomb. Ignorance, willing or not, is bliss afterall…

                The mindset behind this comment confuses me. Who do you think is more called to action by their beliefs, the one who vehemently opposes the status quo or those one who is apathetic to/ supports it?

                  You didn’t answer my question.

                  Do you think being insufferable on the Internet will change the world in any measurable way?
