Bill Gates is fundamentally anthrophilic, so his concern is above all human suffering. I think that’s a valid viewpoint, but also shortsighted; keeping this planet habitable will require tough decisions and sacrifices, and should stay the utmost priority, out of sheer necessity.


Anthropophilic perhaps…


The population as a whole has a rapidly dwindling appetite for tech billionaires trying to impose "tough decisions and sacrifices" on everyone else, so Bill's probably in the right lane. He has already been the target of a vast array of conspiracy theories.


ah, the classic "you are a sacrifice I'm willing to make"


Oh no, to save the world we'll have to take the train to work instead of a car...


Shortly followed by eat the bugs and live in the post. Only for us plebs ofc....
