Well done Gates. I don't subscribe to the Good Billionaire Hypothesis, but there may come the time very very soon when we are grateful for the Not-Batshit-Crazy-Fascist-Boot-Licker billionaires.
Dito. He's a blind chicken that managed to pick a corn. Microsoft is pretty terrible, and after running Microsoft, Billiam spent billions to 'improve' public education only to cause lasting damage to it.
What has it got to do with even the tiniest bit left? Are you another US style "anything that I am to the right of is the left?
Gates is a rich US corporate type. He just doesn't appear to approve of fascists. Perhaps he has family connections to the generation that fought them in WWII.
There is no more any progressive left in the USA than any other left. The democratic party there is not "of the left". It is centre-right. I have known some who though they were lefties. They weren't.
What defines you as centrist?
If he wasn't centre right, Obama would have left office leaving the USA with health care and that "executive" would still be alive. Biden would have done likewise.
Why didn't they? It's not as if anyone is harmed by receiving healthcare
Hes not wrong but its his class thats responsible for this whole mess.
Without greedy immoral billionaires that want to get even richer no matter the cost we wouldn't be stuck in shit up to our hairline.
We seem to be living our own dystopian present huh? Loved Logan's run though. Note the usage of "sanctuary" cities in our own vocabulary. Pretty soon, we'll all be looking for sanctuary.
“I think in the US foreigners aren’t allowed to give money; other countries maybe should adopt safeguards to make sure super-rich foreigners aren’t distorting their elections."
Bill Gates has labelled Elon Musk’s embrace of far-right politicians and attempt to interfere in the politics of other countries – including the UK – as “insane shit”.
Good that he has realised this, now it is time for him to speak out and boycott Musk.

I bet he won't be holidaying in Kenya again the criminal!

I don't believe populism is far Right.
Trump's success is much to do with the failure of the "progressive" Left.
In the swing states regular people including ethnic minorities rejected the Democrats.
They are not right wing or far Right
The progressive Left is dead
What defines you as centrist?
But Democrats did have a substantial element of the progressive Left ideology.
I'm a former Leftist. Convinced out of it sometime ago by Christopher Hitchens.
And I concur with Musk and Jordan Peterson on the modern Left.

‘super-smart’ but guilty of ‘overreach’?
