Socialism (not social democracy) tends to go that way 😅

I don't think you realise the bad things he did (and still does, like patenting everything he 'funds' in research) versus the "some good" things coming out of it, that's about it I think. That's why your comments make me feel like you excuse an execrable people "just because 'some good' came out of it.

BTW I had to scroll throug the whole original post, Connect (the lemmy soft) lost your answers, so if you answer to this I might not be able to respond.

I answered Honytawk 🤷🏼‍♀️?

You seems to be up in arms defending a shitty billionaire and his shitty charity, repeating over and over again that they did "some good", what kind of argument even is that? Dictators do "some good" too you know.

Let me google that for you.

It's like asking for proof there is sand in the desert

That's not how it works, it's not like "I do some good, now I can do some bad". It does not even out.

Bad people doesn't become good because "some good things came out of it".

If you do bad, then you are bad.

Every dictator did "some good work", are you thinking they are good people?

IMO your moral compass need maintenance.

Giving away money? You sweet summer child.

Research don't want "his" (the foundations) money, it comes with so many strings attached all your lives work now belongs to the B&M foundation.

His pr firm really works well.

Check out when elon ditched his pr firm. He went frm that loved lil crazy fun type to what he really is.

Name one bad historical person that didn't do at least some good.

Your moral compass is broken.

Forget it, they're out there thinking they'll be the next one to "benefit" some million dollars from the billionaire table

That was balmer though, IIRC. Crazy times

Amen

Thanks! I looked around but it's a jungle there, no idea where to even start, so thanks for the link, will check out!

Their pr firm seems to function very well at least.

Guess you're going to whitewash bezos, musk and zuckerberg next?

Edit: lot of free work done for the magnificent mr Gates and his tax avoiding fundation. Do you think you'll get some crumbles from the rich mans table?

Making money/influence. It's such a scam his "Bill and Melinda Charity" (no taxes on charities).

Or pick the lock. Super easy.

Saber rattling, very menacingly.

You mean the 1.000.000 russians who went to war? Yeah they were evil. The basic vatnic I don't know. Putin and the Kremlin for sure.

He doesn't have to, if it's an "emergency".

My TV isn't a "smart" tv.
