      what is bill gates sacrificing to do this? As far as I’m aware absolutely nothing at all.

      i think in order for this to be praised, in order for it to be good or generous there needs to be any amount of sacrifice. Is he downsizing his mansion for this? Does even one thing about his life change?

      this is just a way of buying good pr.

      Damn, Erika must be hanging around the wrong spaces. Don’t get me wrong, the liberalist ones are full of idealistic drivel like that, it’s true, but any Marxist space will drill into you their famous quote:

      https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Theses_on_Feuerbach

      The document is best remembered for its epigrammatic 11th and final thesis, “Philosophers so far have only interpreted the world, in various ways; the point, however, is to change it”, which is engraved on Marx’s tomb.

      Your “nothing wrong” includes frequent trips to Epstein’s island. 😬

      I guess I’m just a crazy online Leftist for not thinking a nice donation to NPR is enough to even out molesting kids. I guess you want to give him a tote bag?
