    Raging hot take on Lemmy, but yeah, agreed. He was a bastard to get the money. All that money is going to, like, starving African kids, though. If I was him I’d do the same shit and sleep like a baby.

    Meanwhile, Bezos builds dick rockets and nobody complains, because he keeps out of the headlines.

      Bezos wants to play dragon

      Gates is definitely a good human, but nobody is without flaws. Bezos however wants to be evil. And then there is Musk, thinking he does good but actually is a clown that only causes inconveniences for everyone.

        There’s ~2000 confirmed billionares on Earth. Some do philanthropy, some do evil, but most just enjoy being comically rich, like Jeff.

        Honestly that sounds about like what the people I know would do. This is because it’s all random chance, and they are an average group of people.

          Id say its still import how they got so rich, oil people for example are definitely on the evil scale. And thats the more important part, when when you get rich by destroying the world and using literal slave labor you are definitely evil. And this type of billionaire is more common than the good people.

            Well, sure, not in the ~2000 are guys like Putin or the Saudi royals. We all know they have way more than just a billion, but we can’t prove it. Then again, there’s a lot of mean people who are still poor. I’ve met some.

            The math is sound. I’m always linking that thing because more people need to know.
