Have Bill gates in a sleep over, who will tell you the secrets to screwing people over and spyware tricks
or dining with the foot fungus eating master, Richard Stallman, who will explain in great detail about the origins of GNU and why that finnish guy made GNU largely small in the grand scheme of things.
Can I have a concealed weapon as I meet gates? I’ll take one for the team
Damn dude. Why so much hate for Bill? Did I miss something?
…He’s a billionaire.
So he needs to die? What kind of sick logic is that?
It would be a much better world with a bounty on the head of anyone worth more than a billion dollars. Pay your employees more, charge your customers less, divest your ownership interests. Buy more products and services from the market, rather than lending to it.
But you’re worth more than a billion dollars to someone
Then that someone can kill me.
Well, at least you’re dedicated to your ideology. Good trait to have I suppose…
You only amass that kind of wealth and power by stepping on the backs of those you deem beneath you.
Billionaires are a cancer on society.
Money and greed are the cancer. To be honest I’m not sure if I would be a different person if I had the same amount of wealth as say like Bill Gates. I’d like to think I would be willing to distribute more accordingly, but I’ve never been put in that situation before. Can you sat any different?
Bill was friends with Epstein after he was convicted for pedophilia they even had sleepovers in Bills mansion.
‘Would you rather’ would be a fun community.
I’ve thought about making it but stopped since I already mod like 7.
There is one on Lemmyworld but it’s lemmyworld
What’s wrong with lemmyworld?
Damn. Um… Neither, please?
I’d love to have steak sitting across from Linus. Bradley Kuhn from the SFC is an awesome guy.
But if I had to pick between Gates and Stallman… I guess Stallman so I can grill him about why he’s been sabotaging the the Free Software movement so badly.
Double it and give it to the next person
Stallman is the easy answer. We can play a board game after dinner.
Bill Gates: My mommy was on the board at IBM and bought me a monopoly. I took that lesson to heart for the rest of my life and always pursued back door deals and monopolies.
Richard Stallman: I told you how you would find yourself without public commons in a neo feudal dystopia that would destroy the very fabric of democracy because it was the obvious outcome. I gave you fucktards an alternative but you clowns were far too stupid to listen and threw away freedom and democracy. Now you have the worst leader in the history of the country by every metric known, and a traitor that attempted a coup just like Hitler, saying the same things as Hitler, running on a ballet for leader one again, while you do not have freedom of information because of the digital coup I tried to prevent and warn you about. You mock what you lack the depth to understand and in so doing you are the joke.
I’d rather hang out with foot fungus eating Stallman than hang out with friend of convicted pedophile Bill Gates, who hung out even after Epstein was convicted for pedophilia. what about you OP?
Do I also have to partake of the foot fungus?
I only know Bill.
Bill was friends with Epstein after he was convicted for pedophilia they even had sleepovers in Bills mansion.
I hope Bill wasn’t encouraging of him, but I wouldn’t blame them just for being friends and having sleepovers (as long as they didn’t bring anyone).
Bill was on the Epstein list
Well crud.

Hes also spoken up about the inherent power imbalances between an adult and a minor. Maybe read what he has to say from his blog than reading what other people have cherry picked for you to create a narrative.

Go read the rest of his blog then and come back. Youd at least see this man is neurodivergent as hell.

Good for you but not all neurodivergence is the same. Assuming that is silly af.
Its more the principle that people can grow and their opinions can grow and change over time. People can make people accidentally feel uncomfortable due to their awkwardness.
Has this person actually done anything harmful or influenced anything harmful apart from some bad takes. I don’t think so. I dont think hes a good face for the FSF. But i also dont think he should be exiled.
