- AndrewBissell 6y agoFunding vaccination efforts in the third world is a high profile part of the Gates Foundation's activities which you are meant to focus on. In the meantime, it carries out its real purposes almost unseen: laundering Gates's reputation by buying and controlling media sources, increasing the value of his investments in sectors like pharmaceuticals, and furthering certain of his agenda items like charter/online schools or reducing population growth in the developing world. https://www.thenation.com/article/society/bill-gates-foundation-philanthropy/ https://www.thenation.com/article/society/bill-gates-foundat...
- pmdulaney 6y agoThanks for your response. Saying that Gates's motivation in his charitable work is to launder his reputation seems a tad cynical to me. Isn't it plausible that he is simply trying to use his time and resources the best he knows how? In any case, I now understand what you meant when you said "the big move covers the little move."
