I quantify it as: Taylor might not deserve the guillotine, the rest inarguably do.

I'm not a fan of hers but they are still correct that she's not nearly on the same level as the others.

Hey look everyone! This person’s a billionaire apologist!

What do you expect from somebody who uses a corporate logo (of a Texas gas station, no less) as their avatar pic?

(I'm (kinda) joking.)

She is known for giving these people bonuses that surpass anything I've heard about outside corpo management, though. The occasion that made the press mention 100k USD for truckdrivers for one tour and while I dont know how much a truck driver makes a year, it'd sure make my life easier for a couple of years.

Not saying she isn't good at making money, but I'd say the jury is still out on the issue of hoarding all of it for herself.

Nah daddy already owned a minor stake in one, like 5%.

Her parents were rich but not billionaire rich.

It depends on where you are, of course. Here in the UK, the Murdoch press is a massive influence.

No doubt. Some hypothesize that Vladimir Putin is the actual richest man in the world. Possibly even a trillionaire. He's definitely the worst of the radical rich.

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.

I agree with this take and upvoted you. But she is a billionaire, and also a genuinely good person who's supported her fans, the people that work with her, etc. I don't think there should be any billionaires, and I suspect TSwift would likely agree with that.

That's the difference between her and the actual oligarchs pictured. They're scum of the earth. She's guilty of wage exploitation, but capitalism is designed around that idea, so she's just playing the game.

She's not off the deep end like so many other billionaires.

There's shades of gray here. We can agree there shouldn't be billionaires on principle, and also agree that not all billionaires are using their ill-gotten wealth for pure evil, like the other 3 pictured in the "meme".
