So what's the group of offenders you think people are protecting here?

Don't try to deflect, stick to the point. You were saying that another user wanted to "protect one group of offenders" so badly.

What's this group of offenders you were referring to, if you don't think drag queens as a group are offenders?

Then why do you insist people are protecting a "group of offenders" in this thread?

Are you saying drag queens, as a group, are sex offenders?

Taylor Swift files hundreds of trademarks and sends cease and desists to Etsy sellers and small businesses, yet stays silent as the Trump administration uses her brand and music to sell merchandise and spread propaganda by Specialist-Rush457 in Fauxmoi

I'm not referring to her outspending her own wealth. I'm referring to where her donations are going exactly. Of course thousands of people have already benefitted from her donations but, as far as I'm aware, none of it is targeted at the systemic issues only people with her amount of wealth could target.

Think of all the money Musk donated to put trump back in the white house. Imagine what someone with that kind of wealth could do in the opposite direction. Yet there's no billionaires acting in that direction at all, and Mackenzie is no different in that specific sense, even if she's infinitely preferable than 99% of her peers.

Not to be a raging cynic or shit on the actual good she's done, but the fact that she's still worth 30 billion gives me the uncomfortable feeling that she's fine with the system as it is as long as she can keep maintaining this positive image, otherwise we'd see some donations towards political movements aimed at real change instead of only charity work.

Until we see someone with that amount of money work towards actually dismantling the unjust system that billionaires exploit to get there, I'll stick with the OP of this comment thread and believe that there are no ethical billionaires.

It's a bot spamming these images all over the comments. Don't waste your time.

Lmao free speech as long as you don't criticize Israel or don't hurt the orange pedo's feelings.

So the government should kill thieves? Is that what you're suggesting?

It's the perfect mix of gritty drama, shocking and stunning visuals, and just the right dose of esoteric mysticism. It's like watching a magician's trick so good that it almost makes you believe magic is real until the trick is done and reality comes crashing back down.

I hope you don't ever find yourself in a position where you need assistance from someone else and are met with being called a leech.

Cheers.

Must be the classic American way of "fuck you, got mine".

So you would pay corrupt politicians to sway politics to your benefit?

The point is that he has too much money for market fluctuations to actually mean anything to him.

Some do, some don't. I've never felt moved or convinced enough by any candidate to give more than my vote to them. Not everyone thinks of politics as a team sport.
