I don't care if Bill Gates is good or bad, I'm not going to debate this.
Isn't the new right wing line: "School is liberal idoctrination, get out there and work".
So this guy gets out there and works with no degree for 20 years in the vaccine and global health field, and right wingers are like: "Where is his degree? Where are his qualifications to speak on this?" all the while ignoring that the guy has been focused on this shit for 20 years.
Guess what, I don't have a degree in my field. I have 20+ years of experience. I get paid a lot and people listen to me because I have 20 years of experience.
Why does his opinion matter? What does he know that the rest of us don’t? I guess he knows how to spread his ill-gotten gains around.
‘According to Tim Schwab in The Nation article “Bill Gates’s Charity Paradox“, the Gates Foundation uses “all the tools of capitalism” to “connect the promise of philanthropy with the power of private enterprise.” Schwab looked at 19,000 charitable grants the Gates Foundation has made over the last two decades and found close to $2 billion in tax-deductible charitable donations made to private companies. Among these, a $250 million donation given to media companies and groups to influence the news with a clear ideological agenda. Additionally, close to $250 million was identified in charitable grants made to private companies where the Gates foundation holds corporate stocks and bonds, raising the underlying question as to whether these donations are providing the Gate’s Foundation with financial gains.’
Hoyl fuck I just told you why people would think his opinion mattered. It doesn't mean he is 100% right but to say he has no experience is FUCKING STUPID.
He has demonstrated no expertise in anything other than shady business practices.
This dipshit called Scott Atlas a pseudoexpert. But Gates is a real expert because he says so? Sorry, not in real life. In real life he’s just a rich larper.

So I find this talking point stupid.
