And if they reply something like, “Uh, I don’t answer to you and don’t have to limit myself for your sake,” the interlocutor tends to lose their sh*t at even the mere implication some celebrity doesn’t feel an obligation to kowtow to them.

Kudos to Ashton Kutcher of all people, for taking his fortune and starting a company where tackling a specific social issue *was* his “real” job.
