    What Gates is doing right now is a massive publicity stunt to make people believe he’s actually a “good person”. He is not. He is still a disgusting billionaire that contradicts everything he preaches.

    • He is constantly buying farmland, to the point where he’s the biggest land owner in the whole US. This is seriously harming small farmers.

    • He preaches about climate change and using cardboard straws while in his massive ($650M!) mega yacht

    • The “humanitarian/healthcare” stuff he did, while helpful, was only done because he could use it as a tax writeoff. He wouldn’t have done it if it wasn’t the case.

      Also introduced voucher schools because he didn’t want teachers telling him laptops won’t solve education

      • That’s good for climate change?

      • He has unimaginable influence. Doesn’t the change he makes outweight his mega yacht? (Yes I now how ridiculously expensive these monster ships are) I doubt he is only committing to netto his yacht.

      • Oh you know him well, could you make a meeting happen? I have an idea

        • How is that good for climate change?

        • Nobody listens to this guy. Have you been recycling just cuz Gates told you to? Also these kinds of yachts pollute so much with a single trip that it outweighs any good that he could have done by convincing millions to save electricity or water.

        • I don’t need to know him well. It’s not rocket science.

      The “buying farmland” part is just a product of him being a billionaire tbf, it’s what he does with it that could be concerning.
