Bill is definitely not a good person, but he does do a lot of good things. And I’m willing to temporarily forget about all the bad things while he’s dissing Elon and forking over his cash.
Yep, and he’s using that charity money to get influence with research institutions and universities. Meanwhile he privately holds stock in big pharmaceutical and energy companies. Not sure if anyone has done the work to trace the money, but I’m sure his charitable donations end up benefiting those private investments.

He’s been giving away his wealth for decades, and only got richer during this time.
Hasn’t he mainly been “giving it away” to a Charity he himself controls?

Of course, but that’s more than most of the ruling class can say.
Credit where credit is due, and only where it’s due.
Billionaires can bever do a good thing while remaining a billionaire.
They can do good things, but it doesn’t make them overall a good person.
I don’t think it’s possible to amass $1 billion in worth and not be a bad human.
I…think you misread me? I said a billionaire cannot do a good thing while remaining a billionaire?
They can’t still do a good thing.
Correct, they can’t.
They didn’t misread you; they just didn’t agree with you
Oh cool, we’re all having problems reading.
At least one of us, yeah
Cool captain capitalism defender guy
No, you’re just wrong.
You said that a billionaire can’t do anything good.
The other guy said that billionaires can perform good actions but can’t truly be considered good people.
I made no remarks about billionaires at all - only tried to clarify your misunderstanding.
His was disagreeing with you, and you are making yourself look like an idiot.
You finally edited the “bever” out of your original comment, though, so good for you.
Gates at least seems determined to buy his salvation.
Got a real Rockefeller vibe to him now, don’t he?
