literally how are people possibly construing taylor swift’s “hey apple please pay artists” letter as evidence of her being a capitalist pig when she explicitly said, “i am a megastar and obviously can afford to support myself regardless but there are struggling songwriters who need these royalties to stay out of debt” and her letter was actually singularly responsible for ensuring that apple didn’t get away with just not paying artists for the use of their music, and all of this strikes me more as “established celebrity looking out for people who don’t have this kind of industry clout” and not “privileged bitch whining until she gets yet another fat paycheque” lol idk i guess your perception of these events depends on how much you hate powerful women
