According to the co-founder of Microsoft, we must abandon real meat and, instead, eat meat-representing alternatives grown in bioreactors to save the planet (11 min read.)

Gates bought influence into practically every organization on earth, which is why everyone ridiculously looks to a computer geek for advice on vaccines, alleged climate change, etc.
It still amazes me the minimal amount of attention paid when Gates said, “The world today has 6.8 billion people. That’s headed up to about 9 billion,” “Now, if we do a really great job on new vaccines, health care, reproductive health services, we could lower that by, perhaps, 10 or 15%.”
Then all the "fact checkers" that went to new extremes to tell us that those exact words did not come out of his mouth or "what he was really saying was.."
Well, anyone who has the means, and doesn’t have a reason to yet tells his children they don’t get anything after he dies, kind of shows he doesn’t give a crap about those who should be closest to him. Why would anyone think he has the best intentions in his heart for others? He built his wealth on an idea that wasn’t his own, knowledge that wasn’t his own (dumpster diving to get code - though this fact is probably expunged by now) - all to bring about an operating system that was insecure, bloated and crash prone. His only saving grace was that he really was one of only a few systems in town. That made him fortunate for sure, but intelligent? Nah. And that’s the real issue. He is a business man fronting as someone whose intelligence the world should respect. Money has a way of filling your mind with the illusion of wisdom. We as a people need to stop listening to people of means as if they know better than we do because of their wealth. Money does not equal intelligence, wealth does not equal wisdom.
The golden rule still applies far too often, but it doesn’t even pretend to expand or elaborate its own meaning. He with the gold makes the rules. That’s all. There is no he with the gold knows better than you. There is no he with the gold demands your respect.
I really need to shorten these rants down somewhat. So let me summarize it into just a few simple words:
Thank you for your comment. I do not disagree with you. This is my favorite part: "He is a business man fronting as someone whose intelligence the world should respect. Money has a way of filling your mind with the illusion of wisdom. We as a people need to stop listening to people of means as if they know better than we do because of their wealth. Money does not equal intelligence, wealth does not equal wisdom."
I appreciate this article, and I think it connects interestingly to another N. Dakota land issue, and that the two might be 'conveniently' interlinked.
What is up with the AG of N. Dakota? Because was it on his watch that the sale of land right next to Grand Forks AFB went to a Chinese FOOD MANUFACTURER? Get Attorney General Drew Wrigley out of office. He has got to be in someone's pocket, to sell out his state and this country's food sovereignty this way.
And yes, it is laugh-inducing to claim that synthetic meat will be eco-friendly. Like robbing Peter to pay Paul, and gee, we've done so well with lab-created...other things, recently. What could possibly go wrong?
In the 1930s Japan bought millions of tons of scrap metal from the United States. They used it to manufacture planes and ships to attack us at Pearl Harbor and beyond. Bill Gates sold us software and is using the money he received as a result of owning Microsoft stock to harm us. Why is it that people who become multi-billionaires seem to lose their sense of right and wrong?
Very good point. Some multi-billionaires have a sense of right and wrong. But the accumulation of power and influence in a subset of people who become multi-billionaires exacerbates their predisposed tendency towards control (they believe they are superior to the masses and know best). And for some, human beings are reduced to numerical data points as opposed to autonomous beings made in the image of God.

Has to be an interesting money trail there.

Thank you for your comment, insight and additional information. Much appreciated!

Thank you for your comment. I agree that Gates has "delusions of good intentions."
