Unpopular opinion: Ppl who purchased multiple tickets (for different city and dates) mirrors the ‘anti-share the wealth’ mindset in MAGA politics… prioritizing your own access over fairness for everyone else.

This is super interesting and also I think the access to concert tickets nowadays vs 30 years ago is the whole reason it’s an issue like you’re saying. I’m struggling with my words here but imo it would be less like “hoarding” access to tickets if they were still $5-15 and equally (more or less) accessible to all of us without barriers like scalpers with bots, internet speed and access, access to presale info, time to be doing all of those things, not to mention the insane prices nowadays.

This is an interesting mind-fuck cuz I see what you’re saying here, but I think the comparison you’re drawing kinda deflates your point. IMO concert tickets and access to healthcare/some other social service are two WILDLY different things. One is a privilege and the other is a right. To some MAGA, this comparison would be useless because concert tickets are inconsequential

I don’t think they’re drawing a comparison to make a broader point about healthcare, I think they’re drawing a comparison to make a point about people hoarding tickets to concerts. No one’s saying concerts are as important as healthcare

Agree agree. Concert tickets and hoarding them definitely reflects the development of a larger wealth gap. I guess my point was that this comparison is not gonna be very convincing to anyone who is happy with what’s taking place rn. Which then again most of those fuckers are so brainwashed that nothing can make them see the light

Yes. I’m definitely not saying that it’s more important

It’s not about any artist in particular. I’ve experienced this numerous times atp so I suppose BTS was the tipping point of me speaking on it. Bruno Mars definitely hurt me tho ❤️‍🩹

Yes! There’s so many things we have to worry about! I don’t want to worry about greedy people taking a lot of tickets.
