Ask Aristotle: Should we look away from the Met Gala?

For its entire existence, the Met Gala in New York has always been for a handful of elite philanthropists and celebrities raising money for an exclusive institution. But this year felt especially dystopian.One billionaire in particular had a lot to do with that. Jeff Bezos and his wife Lauren Sanchez Bezos reportedly paid $US10 million to sponsor the event, and even for this traditionally high-end evening, their involvement was too much for many to stomach.It set off protests around the city, endless think pieces and several notable boycotts.So is it ethical to have a little bit of fun looking at fancy people dressing up in fun clothes, when it's sponsored by a billionaire oligarch?
