The most whitewashed billionaire in existence. Insane people still buy into this slush fund campaign.
Bill Gates is more evil than Elon Musk.
How so? Specifically?
Cause Musk is actively trying to destroy democracy and kill poor people.
Also different user. His life's work had been to create the most evil corporation the world has ever seen. The largest monopoly. It's still allowed to run and controls entire governments all around the world. Most companies, schools and government functions of many countries are completely tied to Microsoft cloud and their software and have no choice. This has essentially halted all technical progress and research on many fields because the results can't be productised. The loss and corruption is endless.
It's been going on and ramping up for over forty years. It's still going on.
Forty years is a good "why" for why musk is nothing compared to this evil.
Is there any reputable journalist that has echoed this take? It sounds very stretched. Monopolization on Word is one thing, but I’ve heard of some governments finally getting fed up and moving to open source.
I won’t deny Microsoft has done bad shit. I’m currently boycotting them for their assistance to Israel. But “most evil corporation” is a gigantically high bar in the world we live in.
Different user: I don't think it's worth arguing about which is "more evil", especially at this billionaire level of antisocial behavior. What's the point? They're both intolerable, causing death for profit.
For real, but since Old Evil Billionaire is piling on New Evil Billionaire, he becomes Sweet Old Philantropist. Gates made his fortune by stabbing everyone on the back and charging them for the knife.
What has Gates done recently?
Trying to get a monopoly on vaccines through a "nonprofit" and do neocolonialism.

Bill Gates is about as "nonprofit" as OpenAI.
The WTO adopted partial patent waivers in 2022, many nations allowed complete vaccine patent exemption, and very soon after the Bill Gates statement your article cites the Gates Foundation made a full reversal and endorsed it.
Aight, yeah, thank you! Gates isn't that much in the headlines for the things he does, I remember him owning/buying a ton of land too now?
Yes he is the largest US farmland owner as well. Gates is evil on many levels.
