Well, he’s spending that for all of us, giving us the option to ignore the truth about our own lives. We rely on Child Slaves in Africa for our entire digital economy. From the coltan and other mines in the Congo come the minerals that our electronics require, and we employ warlords to run the mines with slaves in order to save money. We accept that is "the cost of doing business." If it wasn’t for benevolent leadership of guys like Gates and Musk, we would have to take responsibility for our own choices, and we would have to be bothered to create an honest economy and give up our joyous exploitation of human suffering that brings warmth to black hearts. You should thank God for Gates to give you an excuse not to do anything for anyone but yourself. H2space.org

Pharma companies donate the same, through “advertising”. In doing this the media won’t write negative articles about them because the advertising revenue is far too large every year.

Gates is just 2 months older than me and he looks at least a decade older - must be all that "healthy" food he eats. (Petty comment, I know, I know.)

Gates founded a very large program to reduce the spread of HIV in Africa by developing a microbicide to be used during sex. It failed its first big trial and he simply cut and ran. Enveloped viruses as HIV, HSV and good ol-SARS CoV-2 are tough bugs. Obviously we are spending 10's of billions a year on protease inhibitors to keep the 35-40 million infected in a chronic state. Gate's had the right idea in the first place- we must stop HIV. Spending money instead on the media is totally a waste of time.

I always suspected that there is something rotten with The Guardian. Now I Know Why. As of this moment, for me The Guardian has 350% less credibility than the already discredited CNN.
