    There's a difference between being forced to live under capitalism, and flying in a climate-destroying private jet.

    There's a difference between publicly advocating for socialism, and purchasing a $1,100 shirt that was made with slave labor.

    Practice what you preach. Otherwise nobody will take you seriously.

      I literally don’t fucking care. Capitalism is a land of monsters. You’re choosing to hyperfocus on someone who’s doing better than others with a similar platform and similar choices. Go get equally expressedly mad at another influencer who bought the same shirt and then I’ll think this shit is in any way a good faith criticism.

        Who else can afford a $1,100 shirt?

        Or a private jet, jesus. The price makes flying first class look like a bus ticket.

        A better use of that money would be to distribute it to those who need it, quietly and with no fanfare.

          There appears to be at least 5 people in that jet and they're flying from LA to Coachella which is like a 2 hour drive lmao... even if you could find a first class ticket to coachella from LA i am willing to bet this would actually be cheaper.

            Well I'm glad someone here has stepped in to defend the interests of people who can afford $1,100 Gucci shirts, comrade!
