I agree with this take and upvoted you. But she is a billionaire, and also a genuinely good person who's supported her fans, the people that work with her, etc. I don't think there should be any billionaires, and I suspect TSwift would likely agree with that.

That's the difference between her and the actual oligarchs pictured. They're scum of the earth. She's guilty of wage exploitation, but capitalism is designed around that idea, so she's just playing the game.

She's not off the deep end like so many other billionaires.

There's shades of gray here. We can agree there shouldn't be billionaires on principle, and also agree that not all billionaires are using their ill-gotten wealth for pure evil, like the other 3 pictured in the "meme".

Yeah, I also agree she doesn't really deserve to be in this meme. She's not as bad as the others on here. However, I suspect the original creator put her on the meme so this discussion could be had, which is honestly very smart.

At the end of the day, I think it should be criminal to hoard the amount of wealth that constitutes being a billionaire. I would "take action" against any and all billionaires given the circumstances, even Taylor Swift. Eat the rich. Distribute the wealth.
