"no no, my billionaire is fine. They are really different i promise"
You can't abolish wealth, it's practically impossible. Instead, close the loopholes that make them that rich.
Nobody wants to abolish wealth. We want to abolish people hoarding it away from others who lack basic needs.

I get that tswift is a billionaire, but she doesn't belong in this meme.
Quit trying to equate her to the oligarchs. She hasn't demonstrated any of those tendencies.
Nobody should be a billionaire. There is no labor that can be done to become a billionaire ethically.

I'm not going to argue that Taylor Swift doesn't deserve to be on the billionaire list somewhere, but if you were only going to include 4, why would she make the cut?
Insofar as Swifties need to be reminded from time to time that their favorite billionaire is still a billionaire, with all the problems that entails, I support reminding them, but Swift being put up as some major public enemy lately is weird.

Where Rupert Murdoch? I'd put him as even worse than Bezos.
Koch family deserves to be on here too.

Three of those billionaires made their fortunes by stealing other's work and exploiting other's labor. I might dislike Taylor Swift's music but it is her music and her work that made her a billionaire. When someone stole her work from under her, she re-recorded it from scratch and then put on the most profitable tour in history with each show being 3+ hours long.
I'm not a Swifty, but I also don't think she qualifies to join that evil as fuck trio.
The men in the picture are the top 3 of the latest forbes list, Tylor Swift is not in the top 2,500.
Of all the things to be wealthy for, making music and brining people a little bit of joy ain't bad. Don't condone the jet or the lifestyle. But I don't think it's fair to lump her in with exon and zuk
Hey look everyone! This person's a billionaire apologist!
I'm (mostly) joking.
You are correct that she is not on the aame level as the others but as a billionaire and member of the ruling class T-Swizzle has an elevated responsibility to the rest of the world. Instead of helping she continues her massive destruction of the climate.
Until she is leveraging her wealth to make positive change she does not get a pass.
Oh and buying carbon offsets doesn't count.
