    Ok, so Taylor Swift seems to get the billionaire hate here. I’m wondering, when it comes to successful artists, what’s the opinion on Dolly. She’s not a billlionaire, but she is worth several hundred millions, so it’s close enough. She seems to be beloved by almost everyone.

        My best friend is her cousin. He still hasn’t introduced me, and if she does before he does I’ll never forgive him.

        That said, accumulation of wealth is bad, et cetera. But dolly is the absolute best of what that class can offer.

      I like how part of the reason she got super successful is appealing heavily to the working class instead of pretending to be some monolithic impossible “you wish” standard of fame, money, and power, to self-destructively aspire to.

      Dolly is based.
