why do we (society) obsess over and often hate tech billionaires but don’t bat an eye at music billionaires (taylor swift, jay Z), sports billionaires (magic johnson, lebron), or entertainment billionaires (george lucas,  tyler perry)?

Apples and oranges imo.

Tech billionaires are more like oil, telecom, and other business billionaires that create empires around infrastructure with tangible consequences to the layman.

Music and sports *are* entertainment which we can opt in/out of consuming those products, and is generally inconsequential.
