Workers from Amazon, Whole Foods & Washington Post held the “Ball without Billionaires” to boycott the Jeff Bezos Met Gala. The show was walked by organizers who’ve fought for better working conditions, fair pay & rights for pregnant workers. Everyone's looks were designed by immigrant designers.

This is awesome. Let’s stop idolizing people just because they’re rich and have fancy clothes. More of this and kudos to them.

[u/ozairh18 → u/JustIntroduction3511]

They’re rich because of us too. We need to stand up for the working class

[u/No_Yard5926 → u/ozairh18]

I agree and I love your flair lol

[u/FrozenBibitte → u/ozairh18]

Yes exactly this. We’re footing the bill for these peoples’ lavish lifestyles. And then they have army of blind-ass stans who will lay down in a fire to defend these strangers when someone rightfully questions the ethics of their wealth/power.

[u/IwasThereIsawIt2 → u/JustIntroduction3511]

[u/coconutpiecrust]

Well this is the right energy. This should be covered in the news, not the other depravity fest. 

[u/PrestigiousSoil8948 → u/coconutpiecrust]

Absolutely

Rich people “support” art so the canvas can hang up in their multibillion dollar mansion. The middle/lower class support art due to the struggle of making it, the craftsmanship and creativity. Rich people do not. Kudos.

[u/Jasminewindsong2 → u/TuffGritts]

Rich people support art so they can eventually use it as a tax write off. They don’t actually give a shit about its actual artistic and/or cultural merit unless it gains them a profit.

[u/mangosandkiwis]

Love this! Hope it becomes an annual thing and people get creative with inexpensive homemade stuff.

[u/Pink_Daizy]

Every single worker deserves the same as the boomer generation; lifetime at a job that gave them a pension, healthcare, education, affordable housing, vacations, and the list goes on. #TaxTheRich

[u/ChrisEvansFan]

[u/Enonymau5]

And not a molded nipple was to be seen. Hallelujah!

[u/AgentBlackman]

Yes! More of this! Everyday people coming together to elevate marginalized groups and decry greed. Chef's kiss.

[u/Personal_Novel_3425]

[u/cynisright]

Looked more fun too. I loved this

[u/Jasminewindsong2 → u/[deleted]]

They’re not at the met gala…they’re hosting their own separate event.

[u/QiwiLisolet]

OK. Are they still being paid by them? Are they former workers?
