Hating both is the only based take. All billionaires are evil, even if you really really like their music.
You're fuckin dreaming if you think this silly airplane meme is equivalent to the hate we send Musk's way all the time, constantly
I didn't see many memes about Swift's plane usage till she threatened the kid tracking her flights. If that's not just me, then she deserves it for making a stink about publicly available information.
they did exist before, but not nearly as prevalent
She only threatened legal action after those memes started and when her flight movements got the attention of the right in an attempt to make her less credible of a voice speaking out against trump.
And knowing how batshit insane trump cultists can be and how she's basically the single most hated person of his base I'm not surprised that she feared for her security.
Those records were public for years but the legal action only happened after someone created those memes and even fox news suddenly cared about plane emissions...
this is the most accurate narrative interpretation of the situation. thank you.
I think hating equally based on a single metric is never a based take. If being a billionaire makes you evil then surely having 205.2B makes you a whole lot worse (185 times worse) than having 1.1B.
Also you can like things people do while disagreeing with their ways. Sounds like Swift donates a decent sum while being shitty for having a private jet.
Not trying to stick up for Swift, just trying to add nuance to the conversation.
Sure, and I would say we send at least 185 times more hate towards musk. This is a meme about airplanes, nobody has been calling her a nazi or an apartheid nepo baby or anything.
If being a billionaire makes you evil then surely having 205.2B makes you a whole lot worse (185 times worse) than having 1.1B.
You're assuming evil is a continuously increasing function. It's possible that evil is binary, meaning one is either evil or not, or that evilness "flattens off" at some point. I suggest a (non-experimental!) study.
Also, your math is off.
