when gates was on reddit, he choose AMA sub, so he wouldnt get criticized, they allow you to quesiton him on his charities being used tax evasion or money laundering.
leaving $10m to each child, with plans to donate everything else
The plans were to donate everything else to a tax-advantaged “charity” in which the Gates family retains complete financial control.
This is not philanthropy. It is tax avoidance, greenwashing, and a public relations campaign.

Yeah, it might be public relations, but the malaria nets and polio vaccines and HIV treatments and guinea work eradication did actually save millions of lives.
It’s one thing to argue that doing good doesn’t make up for doing bad, but it’s another thing to refuse to acknowledge the good at all.

How many billionaires are sourcing from locals? Guessing the answer is closer to none.
