Charging them the most they’re willing to pay while giving them the least they’re willing to accept. She could do her performances on an average salary, but why would she do that if useful idiots are proud to pay her more? She wouldn’t be able to get ahead of people like you if she did that, and of course you’re here defending her.
You wouldn’t understand this though because then you’d have to admit how you get ripped off on the regular.
You appear to be quite irritated at people asking you questions about your opinions.
From the Rolling Stones article about this same speech, it appears Eilish donated an eight figure sum of money recently. This is remarkable given multiple outlets seem to estimate her net worth also being an eight figure sum.
We lowly ‘consumers’ on the other hand tend only to have a five or six figure net worth, ignoring the home some of us are fortunate enough to own. None of us are donating 10-20% of our net worth periodically (except the Mormons). It seems a bit out of touch to rail against someone that appears this philanthropic when there are thousands of billionaires the same energy could be pitted against instead.
I haven’t defended this person. I’m not sure I’ve heard any of her music, even her age (born this millenia!) came as a surprise.
What I have done is attempt to politely explain a different perspective that I see that perhaps you didn’t. Comments by yourself on the other hand are diametrically opposed to open thought, respectful argumentation, and basic decency.
You know well the aphorism about everyone else being the asshole, I’m sure.
Unfortunately when a child is raised in environment where they never fail, they can develop into adults that perceive themselves as never wrong. This sometimes deludes these individuals into talking only with condescension to those around them, as if they are on a literal high horse where engaging a two way conversation is beneath them.
Text conversations online aren’t really a good way to get through to them so knowing when to let go is key. Sad though, in a non specific way, for the people in their lives that must ask ‘is so and so invited’ before accepting an invitation.

Keep consuming.

Yes, keep defending the people taking you for a ride.

Yeah, can’t criticize people for how they waste their money.
That would be bad for business.
You’re such a whiner. Blocked.

Typical consumerist.
