These are not remotely the same. The effects of Musk's cuts are monstrous and will lead to countless preventable deaths. Don't dismiss that criticism just because it's coming from Gates.

Never said they were, and I agree.

I did not. I dont need a billionaire who, even though they aren't as evil on the level of musk, is still evil and horrendous; to tell me who to hate or on morality. I did that just fine myself.

Billionaires will never save us.

Micrsofts AI is used in designating women and children in Gaza as military targets. Bill Gates company is literally selecting "the worlds poorest children" to be murdered.
