This idea that if you benefited from capitalism you somehow can't criticize it (even though others have been harmed by it and some people have this thing called empathy for others) is profoundly and explicitly ridiculous and should be discarded quickly by everyone who parrots it. It is not about if you benefited before, it is about if you are currently exploiting it which he is. If he donated most of his wealth and decided to work for minimum wage on films, then no one would question him. Instead he is promoting a new film he is getting millions more from with his very statement you just defended. He exploited you that is. <cite>darkphoenix181 posted [p:931025137] in Mark Ruffa...
