to clarify they do this to people who pirate movies, shows, or songs, they got exposed by 4chan and some high level leaks, and they STILL do this because most of the people working for “justice” dont believe that the high fines for pirating are enough, better to put em in prison for two decades and then theyre a creepy registered sex offender until they die. thats what they get for sharing a copy of Zootopia, right? totally deserved

capitalism is fucking scary because it will commodify literally anything. it commodifies the rebellion culture that is supposed to strike against the system but capitalism turns it into “punk rock”. it commodifies spirituality to make you buy self help books that teaches you to stay away from capitalism. it commodifies minimalism and makes you buy things to maintain your minimalist aesthetic. it commodifies global warming, one of the deadliest consequences of capitalism itself and guilt trips you into buying “green products”. it commodifies itself and creates the idea that vanity is fashionable. it will eat everything up.
When you say eat the rich don’t forget it also includes your favorite pop artists not just the ceo of the business you hate
wow
Y’all are whack. Period. Beyoncé and Jay-Z gave out ten $100k scholarships at their OTR II tour, bailed out BLM supporters who were jailed during protest, and regularly donates and publicly supports the victims of natural disasters, unlike the rest of y’all’s faves. She’s the wrong one to come for.
OP’s point is less about how any one individual decides to spend their wealth and more about the fact that capitalism allows for a single human being to earn 15 million in the same hour it takes another to earn $7.50, no matter their “skill”. Consider the fact that rich people wouldn’t need to donate money at all if wealth inequality didn’t exist in the 1st place. Imagine capitalism didn’t hoard wealth in the hands of the one percent, you wouldn’t have to be defending how much money Bey and J give away bc everyone could afford higher education, or to rebuild after a natural disaster etc. I love me some Bey, and she for sure isn’t comparable to say, Jeff Bezos by any means. But it’s still ludicrous that the 1% even exists. Period.
