How about donating to feed people?
I mean if you're going to criticize a billionaire, there are plenty who aren't doing anything productive with their money...
This escalated quickly. There are many I wouldn't mourn, but to say someone needs to die right after they donate a crazy amount to a good cause doesn't give the kind of impression I think you're hoping for.
It did not escalate quickly. It escalated very slowly with people simping for billionaires.
A crazy amount of good is only relative to the money that you have. What she has donated is lint in her pocket
Just how much do you think she has? She's given away over a third of her net worth so far - way more than "pocket lint."
Show me the numbers, including the interest and additional income from other ventures. Or shut up because you don’t have any of this data.
Do you even know who she is? She's Jeff Bezos' ex-wife. She's been donating billions of dollars since the divorce to hundreds of charities. She didn't become a billionaire by being a bitch like most of the others.
