          I don’t give a fuck about Taylor.

          But if you put a billionaire oil baron, a billionaire healthcare exec, a billionaire drug manufacturer, and pop star in a room - you telling me the Pop Star has the same blood on her hands as all the others?

            No one is arguing with that. Just with the implication that we cannot complain about anyone but the worst culprit

          Asking for the focus to be elsewhere is defending. “Don’t look at this bad thing” is not a neutral statement.
