he hasn't 'bowed down'. he had lunch. he fished for support for his own charitable interests. then he got lost in diaperking's phony 'charm' and didn't say anything 'bad' afterwords.
There is a very long worldwide stereotype of ultra-wealthy persons. Specifically, that all of them are evil and/or ungenerous. Obviously, this is grossly inaccurate. Bill Gates is one of the most generous persons among the ultra-wealthy.
The other claims about Bill Gates being made in this thread are exactly that -> claims.
Ah yes the super duper wholesome chungus billionaire just had to meet many times with Epstein (after he was a convicted child rapist) to do such amazing "philanthropy" that his wife had to divorce him for it 😍
I'm not interested in seeing more claims regardless of the source.
So you just bury your head in the sand until the unpleasant facts that don't agree with your personal world view go away?
A translation for @remington's comment can be "I'm sick of hearing about this sick motherfucker."
