Middle-income tech nerd criticises Gina Rinehart for:
- Being completely out of touch with Australians.
- Constantly releasing media statements on issues like we should care what she thinks (and the media for publishing them).
- Being on the wrong side of history on just about every topic.
- Her awful poetry. Seriously, mine is better and I don’t write poetry.
- Complaining that paying people in Australia more money than she pays workers in world African nations is an issue, while choosing to live in Australia and being a parasite on us.
- For defending a dude who did do some amazing heroic stuff as well as well as committing war crimes, domestic abuse, bullying and generally being a jerk.

I disagree.
During a campaign, ok - her political alignment is relevant in so far as who she’s donating to.
Otherwise her statements of opinion on political matters are not at all relevant and I don’t see the value in reporting it.
It might get clicks but does that mean it should be reported?

It’s a loss for the guardian to be parroting trumpette’s opinion.
“Billionaire has a shit take on situation.” isn’t exactly cutting edge journalism.

The general public can always use more reminders that billionaires are terrible people who stole their wealth from the people who produced it.
