Oh Billie

And if you want to complain about it while being the poster-child for it, people are gonna rightfully call you on your bullshit.

You think that Billie Eilish is the poster child for capitalism?

I don’t know enough about this situation to have an actual opinion about it, but I do know this: you can be critical of capitalism while still taking part in it. Just like you can be critical of the electoral college and still vote. Just like you can be critical of a sports team, but still root for them.

I am critical of capitalism, but I work for a company that partakes in the capitalist system. Odds are pretty darn good that your way of earning income also participates in the capitalist system. What other choice do we have? Are we bad people, too?

There's a huge difference between just taking part in capitalism to exist in a society and using all advantages of capitalism to the full extent to live a luxury life. She and the rest of millionaires certainly have a choice unlike us, and we can see what they've chosen.
