Well, it would make sense. Rich people have always creeped me out, just instinctively.

That's a good point, as illustrated by things like the Stanford Prison Experiment.

There’s plenty of wealthy people who aren’t psychopaths, but they are all broken in some way. Usually it’s because capitalism has completely alienated them from our natural communal instincts and taught them that the individual is god. Many are capable of empathy, they just choose to do the selfish thing because they’ve been told their entire lives that “taking care of number one” is a virtue.

Of course, the impacts of their behavior are the same as if they were psychopaths, so this isn’t me excusing them. But it’s important to know what capitalism does to people and how it requires us to ignore our natural instincts, because the wealthy (the ones capable of empathy, anyways) are the same as the rest of us, only luckier.

Listen m8 all I do is try to do is stop the spread of misinformation. If X thing is just as bad as Y... just say he did X thing. No need to embellish the story.

I care when someone claims that they did. It's important to gets the facts straight imo. They commenter you're replying to didn't imply Gates was a good guy or something.

Where do you see that? That isn't anywhere in your link. The only reference to AZ is that they partnered with one of the companies that Gates invested in.
