Jealousy becomes vandalism?
I wonder how they feel good themselves if people from Africa came and vandalised their house and say rich people should exist
There's a difference between working class and a billionaire that exploits millions of workers.
I believe these activists have probably had empathy for the global poor. This walmart bitch creates the global poor.

Billionaire who don't want attention are not going to be parading around.
People who want attention does
