Billie raised $11.5M and called out billionaires

Billie Eilish raised $11.5 million on tour for the hungry. She looked a room full of billionaires in the eye and said ""If you're a billionaire, why are you a billionaire?"" ""No hate, but give your money away.""

I don’t think it’s about telling someone how to spend their money. I think It’s about or should be about encouraging empathy and lifting others with less up when they’re at the rock bottom and can’t even rely on the programs in place currently.

We live in an increasingly cold world where the top does very little for the bottom, but the top wouldn’t be there if they didn’t have the bottom to sit on. I don’t think it’s wrong to encourage those with to give to those without. I think it says a lot if someone scoffs at the idea of helping. Thoughts?

Billie’s absolute boss for calling that out, like, billionaires hoard cash while people can’t afford food?
