Dude I have said multiple times that he is a bad person who has “cracked skulls and ruined lives.” How much clearer do I need to be?

I have excused nothing. His foundation doing some good work, which it has, has nothing to do with whether or not he is a good or bad person. I have never said it vindicates him. I never said it washes away what he’s done. I have said nothing remotely like that.

You have an ax to grind and you see red. You aren’t reading what I am actually writing.

You’re on a crusade attacking everyone.

No. I never said anything like that. That’s an absurd thing to say.

Are we just going to keep going back-and-forth with you keep telling me what I believe while you ignore what I actually say?

You’re right, that isn’t how it works. Which is why I would never say that. Point out where I said anything remotely like that please.

Dude ffs

• Bill Gates is a bad person

• The US has a corrupt charity structure

• The B&MG Foundation has done some good work

Please explain to me why these three statements are incompatible. Please explain to me how I have been whitewashing Bill Gates when I’m explicitly saying over and over again he is a bad person. Please explain to me how I have not acknowledged that nonprofits are often used for corrupt purposes.

I do not understand how many ways I have to say this to get it through your incredibly thick skull.

You literally used Nazis as an argument against Gates. That’s comparing. What is your deal?

It’s not selfish philosophies, you shoehorned in Nazis so damn fast. That’s not relatable, it’s a cheap tactic.

It’s not justification. He is a person. It is a non-profit. The non-profit has vaccinated countless people, for instance. That is a good thing. Bill Gates still sucks.

Why is this complicated? You can’t be serious right now, this is such obvious nonsense on your part.

When did I say the ends justified the means? I explicitly said that Bill Gates is a bad person and I didn’t say the foundation was clean or something. I don’t think you understand what that phrase means.

Nope. And I sure as hell don’t white wash Bill Gates. You don’t get to that level of wealth and dominance without cracking skulls and ruining lives every step of the way. He is not a good person. But the foundation has done some good work. Surely this isn’t too nuanced for you to understand?

Edit: no clue why it automatically capitalized wash

We can point out how bullshit the charity system is in the US while also acknowledging that the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation has done some good
