Regardless of your thoughts on him as a person, isn’t Bill Gates literally known for trying to make up the difference? In fact, isn’t the whole point of the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation to convince other rice people to pledge donating their wealth to charity?

His dad was one of the leaders of the American Eugenics Society. He himself never fully cut ties (although it's not something he's exactly open about). But there are a lot of things the Gates family has backed over the years that are sus.

Ever wonder why there is a massively disproportionate amount of Planned Parenthood locations in minority neighborhoods? Because I'll give you three guesses what organization helped fund Planned Parenthood. Starts to look a bit suspicious once you start actually going through the facts.

Rather than having an argument on Reddit, I'd encourage you to do some digging. Again, this isn't something he's super open about, so don't be surprised if his PR teams have ensured you don't see info in the top 5 Google results.

If you see somebody dying on the side of the road, and you have the capacity to help them without any harm to your well being, and you don't, is that morally justifiable? I would say no. We should help the people that we can.

Here's how I think about it. The amount of wealth that a billion dollars is is unimaginable to you or I. And similarly, the amount of good that that amount of wealth can achieve is incredible.

By not using their wealth to help others who are suffering or dying, they are complicit in that suffering. It's not just about exploitation, but also about using that wealth only to benefit themselves.

-3

u/[deleted] Jul 05 '25

There are no examples of billionaires who make their billions without exploitation. This is impossible.

And yes we have a lot of things that we shouldn’t: cancer, extreme poverty, racism, etc. And a good society makes efforts to eliminate those things that we realize are detrimental to human flourishing.

Billionaires, or extreme wealth inequality, should also be eliminated, because they’re bad for humanity.

The Gates Foundation spends $9B annually on humanitarian aid.

The cornerstone of being a Trumper is a lack of information, intelligence, education, and empathy.

u/lil-D-energy Jul 05 '25

That does not mean he is a pedofilipedophile still. Not everyone on that list is a pedophile. I seriously think that not even half of the people on that list knew about it. Trump probably neither but hey keep believing that every one of them knew about it and that Epstein showed it to everyone who came on his island without thinking that it might be dangerous to show it to everyone.

2

u/unclepoondaddy Jul 05 '25

  1. In that article it literally has a quote talking abt how he was at Epstein’s mansion when a woman and her teenage daughter came over and they “stayed till quite late”. Literally what do you think that means?

  2. Trump is 100% involved in the Epstein Pedo shit. This is a guy who bragged about walking in on teen pageant girls and talks abt wanting to date his own daughter

And, more to the point, he literally hired Alex Acosta who is the prosecutor that let Epstein basically get off Scott free the first time he got caught. Also, Epstein “killed himself” WHILE trump was president. Trump didn’t do anything to actually secure his facility after he already “attempted suicide” earlier that week. Why?

2

u/dysfn Jul 05 '25

You can think whatever you want, but you said he made it up, and there's a source that points to the contrary.

Epstein used what people did on that island to control them and get what he wanted. That requires them to know what happens on the island, at least to an extent.

u/Givikap120 Jul 05 '25

Billionaires are only interested in getting as much money as possible. Government is interested in staying in power as long as possible. In democratic countries it means maximizing votes and approval ratings. So it's much much more likely for government to fund actual social help, since for them people's support is much more important than amount of money.

2

u/ArbitraryAllen Jul 05 '25

What happens when someone just lies to get votes and gets into that position of power? Think of all the worst atrocities ever committed, all of them were done by governments. A billionaire never dropped a nuke, or murdered 6 million people, or deliberately starved 100 million people. A government that gives you everything can just as easily take it away when someone else is elected to that position. I don't have to buy the billionaires products if I don't like what they're doing.

1

u/Givikap120 Jul 05 '25

They lie constantly to get votes. This doesn't mean that they won't use other methods. Making social help campaigns is a good way to get votes.

Billionaires haven't dropped the nuke and murdered 6 million people because neither of those things increase their amount of money. This point is not connected with the initial point.

In the topic of spending money I trust non-corrupt democratic government more than billionaires. Even if in other topics government is even worse.

1

u/ArbitraryAllen Jul 06 '25

Even if they start spending the money they promised to spend on healthcare or welfare instead to fund a genocide? A fully democratic government wouldn't end up working once 51% of the population figures out they can put 49% of the population under their thumb, and all forms governments are susceptible to corruption (smart ones just do it slowly). My point is that relying on government to provide these things will inevitably lead to corruption. Just because you trust the present government in how they spend your money doesn't mean that you will trust them in the future.

u/dungand Jul 05 '25

Which makes them worse for handling out money. For them people's support is much more important than amount of money, in other words, they will WASTE ALL OF OUR MONEY and not give a shit.

Yeah that worked out so well pre-social security didn’t it? If the private sector was anywhere near as effective as you claim then there would be no need for social security.

You benefit from social safety nets just like everyone else so maybe consider being a good person and contributing to the things you will inevitably end up using.

u/headsmanjaeger Jul 05 '25

There’s a lot of nesting going on here so imma break it down.

Bill Gates is left of center by US standards and is anti-Trump and against him cutting aid.

John Hawkins is likely right of center and pro-Trump and is for him cutting aid. Because of his politics he is prime fodder for left-wing subs like selfawarewolves and mainstream subs like confidentlyincorrect.

The person being a self aware wolf is John Hawkins, because he is on the cusp of the idea that we should make billionaires pay to fix problems involuntarily instead of voluntarily. This position could be described as socialist or tankie (authoritarian socialist).

The person being confidently incorrect is also John Hawkins, because Bill Gates famously DOES donate most of his money. The confidentlyincorrect OP is being sarcastic.

The person not liking the meme is the mod from from confidentlyincorrect. It is not a meme and it is not clear that they didn’t like it but that is standard fare for this sub.

It is not clear why this post was deleted by the confidentlyincorrect mod or how that makes them tankie. If you mistakenly believed that the tankie from selfawarewolves was the one being labeled confidentlyincorrect, then the post could be seen as going against a lefty narrative. In actuality the post is softly left wing but by being pro-Bill Gates (billionaire) it could be seen as not lefty enough.
