you put bill gates, whose dedicated his post Microsoft life, and a great deal of his fortune in the effort to rid the world of malaria in the graphic? you put warren buffet who along with gates signed a pledge to give away his entire fortune to charity when he dies on this graphic too? garbage post, garbage poster.
It let’s them doge taxes while feeling like they are doing good in the world, while using their money to cause more problems. That article is about Gates screwing up education systems while trying to ‘fix’ them, because he has billions of dollars while the people who actually have a clue on how to fix things do not. Look into the other actions his foundation takes and you will see similar patterns, from funding destructive agriculture to sourcing their funds from private prisons.
For the claim that Buffett is doing any good to the world, in his own words:
“There’s class warfare, all right, but it’s my class, the rich class, that’s making war, and we’re winning.”
No one gets this filthy rich through benevolence, but now that they are this rich and the damage is done, I can at least appreciate it when some of that money goes towards good causes.
Causes that probably wouldn’t need the help if billionaires weren’t a thing to begin with, but here we are.
Not saying you’re wrong. I don’t know the man personally.
But I recommend you do some research on the selfish and awful things that the BMGates foundation has done, both in direct action and through monetary manipulation.
Billionaire philanthropy is a farce to launder money tax free and exercise their desires however they see fit.
I want to say magnismedia has a video briefly touching on it, if YouTube is your thing.
And they’re not saying ignore the good, they pretty explicitly said there is good and bad and that the situation has a lot more nuance than you guys seem to think
That wealth is still sitting in Buffets bank account, not being used to help people, and has been for decades. Buffet is in many of the anti-labor actions in many companies around the country and world, including BNSF and their treatment of the rail workers recently.
Gates is a similar story, but it would take much longer to explain and my smoke break is ending.
Philanthropy is nice but the money they have still came from exploiting the labor of others.
A sane economic structure would not create billionaires at all. Philanthropy is not necessary to solve problems. If you tax the rich and use the money to build a robust social safety net and invest in science, technology and healthcare that benefits everyone.
Isn’t that better than relying on whatever scraps the billionaires leave us out of the goodness of their hearts?

Philanthropy is a pr scam for billionaires.

lol. lmao
Imagine posting on 196 to simp for billionaires
Also I didn’t make the graphic lolol
No such thing as ethical billionaire.
No one gets this filthy rich through benevolence, but now that they are this rich and the damage is done, I can at least appreciate it when some of that money goes towards good causes.

That’s sure totally ignoring all the good things done with the money simply to say " but look over there" and not address what was said
Ignoring the bad is equally invalid 🤔
And they’re not saying ignore the good, they pretty explicitly said there is good and bad and that the situation has a lot more nuance than you guys seem to think

yeah because there’s no such thing as a good billionaire.
