      We are. Taylor Swift and the like account for a tiny fraction of billionaire hate. Say what you mean, which apparently is “why ever criticize someone I like?”

        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?

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