"no no, my billionaire is fine. They are really different i promise"

She isn't "my" billionaire as I don't consume any of her content or really give a shit about her one way or the other but she does feel like a weird addition to the list.

Her tag seems to boil down to her private plane usage but is it really all that more than any other person in her income bracket? There are also a bunch of other billionaires listed by others that do a lot worse. He'll, even the other three listed are having greater environmental impact because of their company's pushes into AI and the data center requirements of those.

it's not about who she is. it's ridiculous to have her in this group. her plane is doing damage but it's nothing compared to multinational companies that do whatever the fuck they want with your air, land and water.

She may single-handedly save America from turning into a fascist state with her endorsement, so she gets a pass for now. It is extremely important, yes, but we can worry about her carbon footprint after we get past this MAGA nightmare. Priorities.

Single handedly? So she is the one deciding the elections? I thought there is some 200 million voters deciding the elections. The fact that one billionaires endorsement is so decisive shows deep deep problems with the billionaire cult in the US.
