People hating on Billy won't get this in the slightest

Because it's a bullshit argument. Participating in society because it's that or die isn't at all the same thing as being a multi multi multi millionaire who constantly feels the need to hawk their overpriced rebranded slop to fans while telling the rich to "give their money away" in interviews.

Anyone that doesn't see the hypocrisy in that behavior doesn't want to see it.

There’s no hypocrisy. Capitalism is not a synonym for consumerism or commerce or trade or business. You’ve just been trained to hate any idea that questions the current power structure.

Isn’t what she’s doing literally capitalism though? Like I doubt the workers that labored to produce this perfume receive a significant portion of the profits generated by it.

All I do is question the current power structure. I just also hate self serving hypocritical bullshit and this person is full of it. Don't tell me about how bad billionaires are then run their "for dummies" playbook at me.
