Be aware of "documentaries" that feed you with information out of its context. One of the interviews has been cut short and out of the context to say that Bill Gates has "invested" in health care. Go to https://www.corbettreport.com/meetgates/ and see the sources. The source of the interview (with Becky Quick) is here. Gates has fucking donated $10 billion, not "invested". What he means by "We feel there’s been over a 20-to-1 return" is "Helping young children live, get the right nutrition, contribute to their countries — that has a payback that goes beyond any typical financial return." The 20-to-1 return is for the developing countries, not him.

Bill Gates is not a saint. He certainly played a lot of dirty tricks to pull up Microsoft to where it is now. Though, saying he has invested in vaccines is total bullshit.

Also, be aware of people who create user accounts with the sole purpose of telling you not to pay attention to something.

I think that he is donating his money into technocratic and monopolistic solutions. This money ends up into the pockets of corporations and people that claim to be smart.

It also pushes away solutions that come from within the local culture, and from small scale development. The solutions that strengthen the people.

Really? Do you have any evidence that the countries actually received this money?
It beyond improbable given Gates has doubled his net worth since leaving Microsoft.

Any comments on the ID2020?

Or the:

  • Luciferace?
  • Digital currency/transaction surveillance?
  • Eugenics legacy?
  • Vaccine "Final solution"???

Do you have any sources?

Edit: Here's a link to the sources cited in the video.

Man, you really do not like Bill Gates.

Man, you really do not like Bill Gates.

You misunderstood. Gates is a eugenicists who clearly hates humanity. I'm just getting the word out.

You seem to think Gates is a benevolent character.

So, I'll ask you again. Do you have any comments on the ID2020?

Oh really? You should try to avoid such presumptions. It makes people question your ability to draw conclusions based on facts and thereby diminishes your ability to actually sway opinions.

Actually, I try to avoid shills like yourself.
That's why I abandoned Reddit.

I doubt Gates has enough money to salvage his reputation, but I'm sure you'll still take his dirty money, and try to make it work.

Ad hominem attacks already? When you use the term "shill" so much, it's hard to believe you aren't projecting. Seems you are looking more for an echo chamber than a platform for open discussion to me.

Which money? The "20-to-1" return is an attempt to say that if you keep a person alive, their contribution to their economy is going to be much higher than the cost of keeping them alive and healthy.

It beyond improbable given Gates has doubled his net worth since leaving Microsoft.

He left Microsoft as a chairman. He still has a significant amount of holdings (shares). Anyone who has had Microsoft share for a few years, has more than doubled their money. [And I'm not saying that this is a healthy economy.]

Any comments on the ID2020? Or the: Luciferace? Digital currency/transaction surveillance? Eugenics legacy? Vaccine "Final solution"??? Do you have any sources?

No, I neither have more comment nor more sources. I do not do research on Bill Gates. I have my own opinion of him, but I'm not in a position to propagate my opinion or try to educate others.

What I do know, however, is that, providing information out of its context (referring to the example I mentioned in my previous comment) is not the way to educate people or make a "documentary". Even if Bill Gates is truly the most evil person in the world, this sort of out-of-context information is dishonest.

You realize that you've only disputed one small detail of the documentary.

Do you have any specific criticisms about the remaining 40 minutes of content?

Bill Gates must be very concerned about the facts getting out.

He's made too many mistakes. The public knows what he is. Pretty soon they'll know his history, as well.
