    Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation fought to tooth and nail to prevent a patent free vaccination

    I’m too drunk to find a better source: https://www.wired.com/story/opinion-the-world-loses-under-bill-gates-vaccine-colonialism/

    Gates’ argument about the TRIPS waiver—and the one being vociferously lobbied by pharmaceutical companies—is that waiving patent rights would not help poor countries scale up manufacturing and would instead eliminate incentives for future research.

    This coming from the guy who has preached for population control for decades is pretty grim

    Rapid population growth in some of Africa’s poorest countries could put at risk future progress towards reducing global poverty and improving health, according to a report by the philanthropic foundation of Bill Gates.

    Bill Gates is just as much a fascist as Elon Musk

      “Gates said improving access to birth control was key”. What horrible shit. Obviously if you don’t want infinite population growth you’re a fascist. /s
