technically true, but she was showing off her 2 industrial fridges with probably $200 worth of ice cream. quite garish, really, at a time when the working and middle classes were thrown into chaos due to the pandemic and lockdowns

The richest person in America has more wealth than the median household will accumulate in a million years of labor (literally). Are you sure that two fridges and a lot of ice cream should be the focus here?
