fact that female popstars use their platforms for actual causes but get the most hate and their fans will fight each other over sales and streams instead of supporting each other and male artists can gamble be criminals and nazis get away with EVERYTHING like

I know people like to incite ignorance for sport these days but the Planned Parenthood misinformation is dusty and tired. Abortion represents 3% of what they do. Overwhelmingly it’s education, preventative health services, and essential healthcare for the uninsured / underserved

female popstars will speak up about actual causes and still get dragged nonstop, meanwhile their fandoms are busy fighting over charts and streams instead of having each other’s backs, while male artists seem to get away with everything like

You should sit down. Taylor has never ever done anything like this in her 20 years of career what Olivia has done with this incredible festival. Go and buy her 1000th variants of something…

Thinking about what Olivia Rodrigo just did, Melinda Gates’s generosity, Mackenzie Scott’s insanely generous philanthropy, Taylor Swift’s many philanthropic donations, and Dolly Parton’s lifetime of giving makes it pretty clear that women are often the ones most interested in improving the world for others. Of course there are plenty of generous men as well (e.g. I just learned that Metallica has given millions to students attending trade schools!!!). Still—at this moment in which greed seems to reign supreme, it’s notable that multiple women are bucking the trend.

the top comment is literally the only take that matters here like yes lets normalize women just handling things instead of debating whether we deserve the funding in the first place

20 million dollars gets you 40,000 abortions at $500 per abortion. Bragging about killing 40,000 babies isn't the flex you think it is...

I like Melinda's work, but it's obvious the hypocrisy online of certain groups...where is the discourse that 10M is nothing for a billionaire? that it's a tax write-off?
