One of the most vocal critics of Burr’s rant was conservative commentator Ben Shapiro. He accused Burr of being “woke” and called him an “idiot” for blaming billionaires. Shapiro, known for defending capitalism and the wealthy, argued that billionaires earn their money through innovation and hard work, not by exploiting others. He dismissed Burr’s comparison of billionaires to “rabid dogs” that need to be “put down” as extreme and unreasonable.

Shapiro also questioned why Burr, a wealthy comedian himself, was criticizing the rich. He argued that making money in a free-market system is fair and beneficial for society. According to Shapiro, Burr’s views ignore the reality of how wealth is created in a capitalist economy.
Despite Shapiro’s strong reaction, many people supported Burr’s stance. They pointed out that billionaires use their influence to shape policies that favor their wealth while working-class people struggle to survive. Critics of Shapiro argued that he was ignoring the reality of wage stagnation and growing income inequality in the U.S.
