bald (lawful evil)

phoenixz,

Trumpy is only is a billionaire in his dreams

phoenixz,

Yeah, bald? Try just plain evil

gencha,

Trump is a billionaire?

NightAuthor,

If you only use his own words as a source, yes.

Yea gonna go ahead and say at least 6 of these scumbags are unlawful evils.

woodgen,

Musk and Trump are chaotic evil.

OwenEverbinde,

Or possibly neutral evil.

NAM,

Chaotic feels more appropriate, since they’re only really predictable if you try and think of the absolute dumbest possible thing they could say or do at any given moment.

rsaeshalm,

Bald men unite!

BigNote,

US bald guys gotta stick together.

psycho_driver,

I’d actually place Trump as Chaotic Neutral with tendencies toward evil.

andy_wijaya_med,
@andy_wijaya_med@lemmy.world avatar

How can he be neutral?

Jumuta,

too stupid to intentionally do evil

He’s a perfect public figure for some real evil people. The way he stood by that table, full of big macs, fries and coke… I think this is the proudest moment of his presidency.

For him, that is a legit dinner, and a good one at that. If he perceives the world in a similar way, he may really not really realize what kind of damage his antics cause. The damage happens in the real world, a world he seldom sets his eyes upon.

Bill Gates really doesn’t belong on this. He donates a ridiculous amount of money to several different charities every year without even using them as tax right offs.

Yes being a billionaire is in itself deplorable but he’s one of the best we have in terms of giving back to society.

paholg,

Were he not evil, he never would have become a billionaire in the first place.

looks like someone fell for the propaganda. THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS A GOOD BILLIONAIRE. which charity does he mainly donate to again? oh yeah, the one which his family controls. he has painted himself as a genuinely good person. idc how much he pledges to donate when he dies, if he still has the money now, he is evil.

imagine a society not dependent on individual charity (with wealth expropriated from the working class) for improving material wellbeing.

does a ‘nice’ king justify monarchy?

ThatWeirdGuy1001,
@ThatWeirdGuy1001@lemmy.world avatar

Does it justify it? Not at all.

Does it make it slightly less bad? Yes.

zbyte64,
@zbyte64@lemmy.blahaj.zone avatar

slightly less bad

What is even the point of making that point though? Do we give him a cookie for being a “nice” exploiter?

Serdan,

If being a billionaire is inherently deplorable, why are you defending one?

ThatWeirdGuy1001,
@ThatWeirdGuy1001@lemmy.world avatar

Because out of all billionaires in today’s world he gives more back to society than almost any of them.

Serdan,

www.google.com/search?q=bill+gates+charity+harm

There are endless articles about all the ways in which that is bad.

Saizaku,

Yeah he gives so much back, like the time he was lobbying against lifting the patent on covid vaccines at the height of the pandemic so developing countries can afford them because he invested in vaccine companies.

How does that boot taste tho?

Lmfao, this one man is hoarding enough money to solve world hunger 10 times over, and enough influence to change the entire way the world is run, but what he wants (and I know this because of his actions) is to never drop out of the top 5 richest people on the planet list.

And he has you not only convinced that he gives a shit about anyone but himself, but so much so that you are willing to publicly lick his boot.

Good to see the PR is serving its purpose I guess..

Nalivai,

You’re right, but 100 billion is definitely not enough to solve world hunger. It an enormous systematic problem and can’t be solved by just throwing pocket change at it.
Now, influence maybe, that’s hard to quantify.

DessertStorms, (edited )

Actually, you could solve world hunger for free, by destroying the system that creates it, and fairly distributing the food already being produced

But even if you look at actually tackling it within capitalism, I was basing my estimation on when the UN told Musk it would take 6 billion.
That link confirms that that figure is out of date, but yours is still off Current estimates suggest that as of this year, we need donor governments to invest around $37 billion every year until 2030 to tackle both extreme and chronic hunger

That really is pocket change if they split it between them, even just the top 5 or even ten richest, let alone all of them.
They choose not to

redempt,

Thank you for this. So sick of pretending our problems are unsolvable when we have both the resources and the knowledge to solve them. “It’s just too big/complex to tackle!” is capitalist propaganda.

dvdv,

I believe in most estimates that 100 billion would get us 33% to solving world hunger. Definitely not enough, but also not a drop in the bucket

Jumuta,

Extend, Embrace, Extinguish

he is literally one of the most deplorable people known to man and is the literal definition of a capitalist. Whitewashing, propaganda, proprietisation, he does all and everything detrimental to society

The dude single handily fucked the American education system by mainstreaming voucher schools. His “gifts to education” was a poison pill and that really does sum up the entirety of billionaire philanthropy.

31337,
  1. He made that money by stealing the surplus value of other people’s labor, which probably would’ve done much more good in the hands of the workers instead of being hoarded, as much of it is now.
  2. His business practices harmed consumers.
  3. His meddling in education has caused much harm.
  4. He met with Epstein many times, and probably committed statutory rape.
diskmaster23,

You think these folks are lawful evil? Trump has 90 some indictments against him.

paholg,

He’s definitely not lawful, but I’m also not sure he belongs on a billionaire chart.

Sporrik,

Lawful != Following the law of the land Lawful means your justification for your actions is within the bounds of a strict personal code or creed.

root_beer,

Yeah, and Trump doesn’t seem to have one of those either. But I chalk that up to the brain worms more than anything else.

zbyte64,
@zbyte64@lemmy.blahaj.zone avatar

He has a creed: loyalty to himself. He talks about it all the time like he’s some mafia.

Malgas,

Obligatory: ‘lawful’ alignment doesn’t necessarily entail not committing crimes, only adherence to some sort of code.

But yes, Trump doesn’t do that, either.

datelmd5sum,

Are you still a billionaire if there’s a minus sign in front of your net worth?

fibojoly,

Lawful implies that they respect the laws…

Faresh,

That’s only if the laws mattered for them.

psycho_driver,

Maybe in this case Lawful implies that they buy the laws?

faceless,
@faceless@lemmy.world avatar

it implies they are heavily involved in writing the laws

PrinzMegahertz,

Trump and Musk are chaotic evil
