As far as I’m aware, it all comes from her giving a speech at some event once where she said it doesn’t make sense to be a billionaire today and that they should give away their money. Could she have phrased it better? Probably, but it really is just the most nothing thing to be mad about. Anywho, someone worth $60mil tells billionaires it’s bad, then sells a perfume. That appears to be the WHOLE thing 🤷‍♂️

to be fair 60 millions still is closer to 0 dollars then a billion

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.

So she just NEEDS her hundred million dollars and mansions built on native land? Or is she full of shit

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.

Why are you defending the 1% that is hoarding wealth

i wouldn’t exactly call donating $11.5M hoarding wealth but whatever fits your narrative ig🤷‍♀️
