There may not be good ones, but like everything there are different grades.

Someone who became a billionaire selling weapons to conflict zones after pushing them into conflict is a lot worse than an artist that is popular and actually works for their riches.

If you have billions there are no excuses, dont defend this shit.

[–] sparr@lemmy.world 25 points 2 weeks ago

That person was already evil before they became a billionaire.

The amount of evilness from being a billionaire, separate from how they got there, is approximately the same for both of them.

Nobody "works for" a billion dollars.

Yeah, and every day they don’t give back and horde more than they could ever spend, the more evil they are.
