    Wealth is a vague term. If we’re speaking about billionaires then I agree that there’s probably not many who have aquired their wealth without oppressing anyone else but the hate towards all wealthy people including millionaires is narrow sighted. You can be wealthy and a genuinely good person at the same time; Keanu Reeves for example. That’s why I disagree with such black and white blanket statements. It’s much more nuanced than that. You need more metrics than just wealth.

      we aren’t talking about millionaires? at least i’m not. this whole thread is about billionaires why would you think we were talking about random celebrities? like maybe this argument would be relevant somewhere else but i’m genuinely confused, we’re talking about Bezos and Musk here, not actors?
