[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Bill's been a naughty boy, apparently...

I never fell for his phony "do what I say on climate, etc etc".  He doesn't have his own family life together and he's trying to tell other people what to do.  Typical.

What does someone’s personal life have to do with climate change or advocacy? I’m genuinely confused. If you aren’t happily married, you shouldn’t be giving to charity or contributing to promote causes you care about? [/quote]

DP.

Bill has demanded a global platform by throwing money around. He acts like he is an expert on myriad topics and relies on his credibility to be the moral authority on complex issues.

Well, he’s just a kinky rich guy. He’s not the nice scientific expert he wants the world to believe he is. [/quote]

That still isn't an explanation for why his affairs invalidate his scientific expertise.[/quote]

Well, I don’t think he ever had any scientific expertise on public health, pandemics, malaria, etc.

Tech guy doesn’t mean medical doctor or scientist.

Everyone has an opinion on global warming, so I’ll let that one slide.

Like most family foundation leaders, he bought a platform and demanded respect. He used the platform to lecture oftentimes using morality as a touch point. And it turns out he has the morals of an alley cat.

The dots connect. If you want to continue to keep him on a pedestal as a good guy medical expert, go for it. [/quote]
Gates is hardly a tech guy as well.  What he is is a very astute and ruthless business man.  Money buys access and influence and he has it.  That being said there’s no crime in wealth accumulation or being a prick.  The divorce and revelations to come may sting his ego a tad but he is not going to lose one iota of the sway he holds over the political class.[/quote]
