The only thing Gates does is use his foundation to avoid taxes. He's not any better than other billionaires. The entirety of billionaire philanthropy is a massive lie. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OH4uh8cHuto

No, he does do stuff. I already said about their charities, and you tell me of like i know nothing. I also know about his boat and planes.

I said that he, unlike all the other rich cunts, does something. Do you see the nuance in my words ? Do i need to both italize and bold it for you ?

So Mr gates is special because... he's your special favorite guy? Because last time I checked almost all billionaires give to charities and foundations. Something is not anything just because you declare it, no matter how hard you emphasize it. There is absolutely nothing unique or special about his giving versus anyone else's. You're really acting like he's the only rich pedo to ever start a 501c3. Gates shills sure out hard today.

Again, all rich ppl charities are money laundering. It has to do with how economics (epecially usa taxes) work. And those charities are useless, even more then carbon offsets.

I never said Gates is the greatest angle to ever grace us, all i said is that he is not a completely heartless cunt of a person like Jeff or Elon.

And it's not about giving charities, it's about the initiatives.

Also go fuck yourself. I can talk shit about Gates for hours. I'm just not an extremist to see only black or white. Cunt.

Inside any important philanthropy meeting, you witness heads of state meeting with investment managers and corporate leaders. All are searching for answers with their right hand to problems that others in the room have created with their left.
