Hate to break this to you, but billionaires are not a “class” in the same way merchants or workers are. The problem with being a billionaire is that by the mere fact of being one, you are already on the wrong side of history. If any of them had morals, they would immediately divest enough wealth to others to become not a billionaire. But they don’t. Because they are still billionaires. Including the one in your example.
As the person above said, there are no good billionaires, full stop.

- Comment on Are there good Movies, TV Shows, Anime, with wholesome family (particularly parent-child) relations? 2 months ago:
Awww, that’s disappointing. The anime seemed very wholesome and hit a lot of the challenges of parenting and just felt real. Definitely won’t ruin the experience with the manga then.

Look into setting up an -arr stack. Overseer with radar/sonaar plus your torrent client of choice and a VPN. The setup takes a weekend at most and the final product is honestly easier to use then navigating shitty streaming services now. It actually is more convenient after just a little bit of setup.

- Comment on Bad UX is keeping the majority of people away from Lemmy 11 months ago:
Agree. It’s not about being smug or entitled or whatever. Getting a simple lemmy client on your phone and signing up for the most basic instances takes literally 5 minutes of reading tops. And that’s for non tech savvy readers. If you can’t put 5 minutes of effort into an online discussion forum setup, then how can you be expected to put even 5 minutes of effort into a discussion post or in reading an article before commenting?
It’s a natural filter indeed. And a good one at that. Keep the short attention spanners who need tiktok level ease of use on reddit.
