Cool. One of my oldest friend’s twin sister lost everything in the fire and she was renting, not an owner.
So you know, I admire Paris Hilton for the work she’s done on the whole troubled teen thing, but I could not give less of a fuck about her losing one of her multiple homes.
I’m trying to feel bad for these people, but it’s kind of hard when, for most of them, this was just one of a half dozen properties they own. It’s also not like this was their first wild fire.
I give absolutely zero fucks because the only way they could afford even just the one is by exploiting a shit ton of normal people.
At that level of wealth it doesn’t matter they did to “earn” it, wealth is finite and if they hoard that much of it, there’s less for everyone else.
Paris, yes. But plenty of people in that area are not at that level
There’s lots of “areas”…
But the traditional media is only talking about the wealth, because that’s all the owners of that media cares about.

For people in areas like that video, I give all the fucks. They’re the ones without the money to fight insurance companies.
I hope this reflection will help her understand how less fortunate people are impacted by this and advocate for them.
Yeah. We need her and all the wannabe musician celebs to do a We Are the World type of song for everybody actually suffering.
We are talking about Paris Hilton here, she isn’t about to do any philanthropy that doesn’t have a tax incentive and promote her “brand”.
Paris Hilton is actually deeply invested in fighting the troubled teen industry (aka fuckwads like https://elan.school/ (TW child abuse and lots of other shit)).
It’s important not to reduce people into caricatures of their public selves.
I know a decent amount of wealthy people, none of them are who the media wants us to think they are. They are more understanding and do more than people think. A lot of them give a lot of money to great causes and want no credit. Doesn’t go for everyone obviously but it has been my experience.
I appreciate your contrast.
You never know. Tragedy can bring out the best in people.
That’s hot 🔥
That’s fucked up

That is fucked up. Multimillionaires and billionaires, in this case a nepo heiress, losing their third and fourth vanity properties is an inconvenience they will underpay people to suffer for them.
We have Americans dying of exposure in the streets every day by choice for the crime of being defective capital batteries for the people that live in Malibu. Go cry a river for people who have massive blood drenched investment portfolios in the exploitation casino, you’re less than human to them.
I know this is the wrong reaction, but i am so erect i can feel my pulse… In my pants…
