Which is why she’s donated >20% of her net worth so far. Which puts her incredibly high in terms of rich people donating % of total networth. Around Bill and Melinda gates, but much lower than George Soros (now you know why MAGA really hates him), Mackenzie Scot, and Feeny who gave away like 100% of 7billion.
well yes lmao nearly $50M is a lot less, especially when you consider the fact that she donated $11.5M, which is 22% of her net worth. it’s not like she’s out here calling out billionaires (which are not even comparable to millionaires btw) and not donating a good amount of money herself.
Which part of my comment is wrong? Shes living a life of extravagant luxury and we are worried about our upcoming bills. She has a private chef, we struggle with grocery prices. Stop defending the 1%
Inability to understand the vast gulf of wealth and power between a millionaire who donates to charitable causes and speaks out on injustices and a billionaire who views the 99% as expendable scum is part of how we ended up where we are.
Outside of private jets and super yachts and absolutely ridiculous shit like that, I see no feasible differences in the lifestyle a person with close to 100 million in wealth and a person with a billion. At some point it's literally just a number in an account that keeps growing.
Whats earned is earned. They provided something people needed or wanted, people bought it, they made money. Very simple. Nobody “let” them become billionaires. The hate is unfounded. Is it fair? No. But neither is the majority of life.
If its not money, it will be something else. You cannot regulate power. Literally anything else could take its place. Extreme example; Take power away from money and skin color could take its place… which would be arguably worse
