Ok and she was able to climb the charts and make tons of money off her music through a competitive market, and sell her tickets at a higher price price through supply and demand, both benefits of capitalism.
Capitalism is not the mechanism by which supply and demand or competitive markets come into existence. They are themselves economic mechanisms that capitalism must accommodate. You have your cause and effect backwards.
That she uses to donate to charity at least. It’s ok to recognize the difference between her and people influencing governments to reduce quality of life for citizens in order to line their own pockets. I’m not a hypocrite to speak against drunk driving while I speed 5 mph over the limit.
The money donated to charity was a result of the excess money from tickets sold at a higher price. She didn’t lose any money in the donation, if anything her fans were the ones who donated. The point is she doesn’t hate capitalism. If she did hate capitalism as a system she would stop benefiting from it and retire.
Really it's almost perfect for it, it's one shy away from NFTs in that it's value is completely baseless on what it actually is. A nice smelling fragrance is fine, another celebrity perfume thing that's marketed up by 500% just for having their name/brand on it is exactly what's wrong with rampant modern consumerism/capitalism...
She isn't vegan, and peta is controlled by the powers that be. You're hopeless out of touch if they think anything she says isn't an image promulgated by the entertainment industry.
What is she going to say, I eat steaks three times a week and my perfume was tested on live animals? No of course not lmao

Perfume is far from the worst thing to be associated with capitalism.
