I didn't actively pick her, I just came across this iteration of the meme elsewhere and thought I'd share it here.

And she's a liberal, not a progressive. The terms aren't interchangeable. There are big and important ideological differences, especially when it comes to economic policy positions.

As for "better targets", I hate on those too. Just because I don't exclude Taylor Swift from my scorn doesn't mean that I don't abhor and criticize all of the ones you mention.

I abhor billionaires whether they're liberals with one or two billions or fascists with a hundred. That I don't arbitrarily exclude your beloved Tay-Tay doesn't mean that I'm fixated on her or that I don't realize that she's not the worst billionaire in the world.
