      I don’t give a fuck about Taylor.

      But if you put a billionaire oil baron, a billionaire healthcare exec, a billionaire drug manufacturer, and pop star in a room - you telling me the Pop Star has the same blood on her hands as all the others?

      Asking for the focus to be elsewhere is defending. “Don’t look at this bad thing” is not a neutral statement.
