The gates foundation is very bad actually

i was gonna say, when the revolution comes we empty the gates foundation's pockets

srsly, the worst example possible

The Gates Foundation gave us the microchips in the vaccine, so there's that. (The m in mRNA stands for Microsoft.)

NBC has responded to Musk banning reporters by… suspending a reporter who was critical of Musk.

xp no we're not joking abt Gates

the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation doesn’t just spend its own money. As much as 40 percent of a foundation’s assets represent funds that otherwise would have been collected by governments as income and estate taxes.

also helping to eradicate polio but whatever

If we took his money we could use it to eradicate polio without his pet project of union busting teachers coming along for the ride.

Keep caping for Epstein’s bro, though.

i don't think "we" could do that, actually

Linsey McGoey's book No Such Thing as a Free Gift gets into the details as to why the Gates Foundation is bad - it's from 2015 and needs a post-covid update but this interview from July is up to date: https://www.currentaffairs.org/2022/07/how-bill-gates-makes-the-world-worse-off

Looking forward to Tim Schwab's book on Gates due out next year. His twitter is a constant stream on how Gates sucks.
Recent article from him: https://www.thenation.com/article/society/gates-foundation-colonialism/

if you'd like to witness something truly deranged I would encourage you to check out the frequency with which Elon Musk replies to an unaffiliated twitter blue account called "musk university" that just quotes him https://t.co/a8pwrPak8T pic.twitter.com/z3FtAePOPL

The current top read article on English Wikipedia is the one on the Streisand Effect btw

Well, until Musk buys Wikipedia

gates is a monster who has killed far more people than musk has yet and his PR is somehow more insidious since normal people seem to buy it without necessarily becoming stans - something that seems impossible for musk to achieve especially now

lol at people defending Gates

the shit they pulled around commercializing the covid vaccine was real bad

bill gates is the most powerful person in public health, because hes good at computer

every billionaire is a policy failure and an assassination co-ordinate (parody)

THE ILXOR FILES: matt taibbi identifies the posters who work for the fbi but you already know who you are 🚓

even when an ultra rich entity gives their money away in a way thats not an exercise in extending their political power, which it almost always is see bill gates, they are still unwilling to address the fundamental problem theyve caused which is that they and their cronies are hoarding the worlds resources, in fact they think they deserve to do it and its good, and we should be grateful for whatever they give back however they decide to do it, which is why effective altruism is so silly theyre never actually willing to do the effective thing

I have zero interest in defending Bill Gates the individual, I don't think billionaires should exist, and I recognize some of the inherent problems in large-scale philanthropy as it is often practiced. That said, I find some of the dismissiveness of the Gates Foundation, which employs hundreds of people who are working to improve health, education, and economic outcomes around the world and partners with other organizations to increase its impact, rather annoyingly smug.

just imagine how annoying it must be for us to see you uncritically repeating corporate pr

why not read about their commitment to intellectual property over all that human life they claim to be saving https://thebaffler.com/latest/who-owns-vaccines-neumann

Fine, I won't talk about it anymore

I wanna be a billionaire just to show you fucking ilxor bozos it can be done correct. musk send me money pls

thats effective altruism

we shd poll which ilxor is the most effective recipient (its me)

listen even if i dont win i think whoever wins should give me a million dollars, i just want a taste, just need to get my beak wet

hes really trying hard to sell this thing that no one wants in a way that no one cares about

Twitter will start incorporating mute & block signals from Blue Verified (not Legacy Blue) as downvotes

anyway as far as my plans for the money i will use it to kill every other billionaire then with whatevers left over i will go on a world noodle tour

lol

And as predicted, while all the mainstream journalists who were banned come back, the indies who specifically track the far-right are still suspended. https://t.co/0rnBOUTSRs pic.twitter.com/7QPnXpWBHv

My brother used to say, if he became a millionaire/billionaire, he'd buy St Mirren FC and have a statue of our pet dog outside the stadium recreating a famous photo of him wearing our dad's glasses.

Shit if I got given one million bucks I'd just pay off all my family's debt and keep driving the same car.

Paying off debt like an aphrodisiac

sorry but my family needs to learn personal responsibility

I’d pay off debts but tithe 10% to myself for a stupid fund and see if I could buy all the props from Rob Zombie’s Munsters.

I touch computers for a living and have no children so I already have enough money for everything I want, being a billionaire has no appeal rly

Walking around handing out $100s to every person I encounter would be fun.

Being a billionaire must be insane. You can buy new teeth, new skin. All your chairs cost 20,000 dollars and weigh 2,000 pounds. Your life is just a series of your own preferences. In terms of cognitive impairment it's probably like being kicked in the head by a horse every day

John D. Rockefeller used to do this! Except he passed out shiny dimes.

Do we have to post all his lousy tweets in here, we know where to go get them

well it is his thread

I can’t really dispute that

So few understand this

An open invitation for con artists to pimp their cryptocurrencies in his replies. The man has a scam kink.

This will surprise many
