Not only that, “Alabama State Legislators” sounds like a killer punk-folk act

No, as a personal rule, I generally discount anything and anything from Alabama

It’s deadass exhausting seeing people whinge whenever anything that improves the world happens. Always enough time for criticism, never enough to do something anywhere near as positive IRL.

Someone took 99 families off the streets? Wow fuck that asshole, how dare she have enough money to do that. How dare she not give up her home and make it 100 families off the streets, not good enough!

-Half this website, angry 99 families now have a place to live who didn’t before this event

Sh-shit Morty, I forgot to be AtheistRick

Based take, I’ll have to give them a listen

One of the top posts of Lemmy’s biggest Atheist community. Not quite so respectful as you describe around here XD

Baby don’t hurt me, don’t hurt me, no more…

It seems I, an Atheist since before Lemmy existed, am somehow petmabanned from Lemmy’s Atheist community.

Some mod=God must have a stick up their arses, hopefully y’all can enjoy instead :)

Explain how “hundreds of of thousands” die of not affording Microsoft products, who do you think buys them lmfao? Your standards for humanity are so high i encourage you to apply them to yourself. How much of your income have you donated? How many lives have you personally saved via your efforts?

Anyone on a starvation diet doesn’t have a computer, or is at least pirating that shit. It’s not a oil, diamond, or pharma baron situation. Microsoft money isn’t taken out of the mouths of the starving, it’s from governments, corporations, and professionals who can afford it. Anyone who can’t doesnt need it or pirates that shit.

I’m only half kidding here, but the man is roughly stealing from the rich (corpos, yuppies, and boomers incapable of googling “windows free how”) and giving to the poor (children starving, sick, and thirsty). You still complain? If you were around when Robin Hood robbed the king’s cart and gave 99% of the gold back to the starving commoners, you’d still whinge he still kept his wedding ring and cottage.

Me when anything good happens:

Incredibly based

If you donate a 20 dollar bill it will impact your life more than this will impact his

Why are you measuring this in hardship inflicted on the one donating, and not measuring it in lives saved?

I don’t give half a shit if Gate’s personal life isn’t changed, I care if small children get their polio vaccines and access to potable water.

Like the fuck you mean “so what?”, millions of PEOPLE won’t starve to death because of his personal choice to do this. You’re surely not turning your nose up at that?

You just roasted the shit out his mom.

What a shame, I prefer a medium rare

He could spend billions on megayachts, private islands, hookers, and blow, or hoard it like a dragon as other billionaires do. Instead he’s making a direct material difference in millions of lives around the world.

What he’s doing saves millions of people. I know a communist might think a million lives is just a statistic, but those are individual people. Bill Gates the billionaire is doing more to make the world a tangibly better place than all the conplainers in this thread.

This thread is keyboard warriors complaining that a billionaire is taking action to save millions of people, from the comfort of their couches. One wise man even suggested poverty exists because countries spent all their money on Windows keys

Like I don’t like billionaires existing either, but this is objectively a good thing.

I think if you use your eyes, you might be able to find the title that explains pretty succinctly what Bill Gates plans to give up in order to save millions of lives.

I know reading is hard Communist, but it helps us understand the world!

Never would have guessed world hunger and disease are because countries spent all their money on Windows licenses, great take

Sometimes memes are stored like fine wine

Already switched, what’s next?
