- vikramkr 7y agoNot sure why you're getting downvoted. Philanthropy is philanthropy, and i don't see anything wrong with appreciating when someone does something good.
- atomi 7y agoThe philanthropy is certainly admirable and appreciated, though, it shouldn't immediately discount intent for those whose job it is to worry about stuff like that. But personally, I do think it's pretty clearly well intentioned on it's face. And I'm very thankful this is out and I hope it saves lives.
- Gibbon1 7y agoI think we all know why he's getting downvoted but it's against the rules to talk about it.
- malandrew 7y agoIt’s not that it’s against the rules. It’s just that you’ll be downvoted by those that hate billionaires and that will impact your ability to comment. I’m glad I accumulated enough karma from before HN became like this that I can handle losing some karma to say what others have been silenced from saying by downvoters. https://slatestarcodex.com/2019/07/29/against-against-billionaire-philanthropy/ https://slatestarcodex.com/2019/07/29/against-against-billio...

- gurumeditations 7y agoIt’s naive to think Ma did it alone and purely out of the goodness of his heart. Chinese government and Chinese businesses and their owners are one and the same.
