Gregory's Server“Billionaire philanthropist” is an oxymoron. A true philanthropist would never amass that much wealth in the first place.

@dramypsyd exactly this! I used to love the PBS Newshour, but the parade of rich benefactors at the credits is nauseating. All of the wealth hoarders and their children who created foundations to hold onto the wealth. Why do we applaud them instead of storming their mansions? @janwo A relative of mine who’s Catholic calls it “trying to buy your way into heaven” and that’s not my jam personally but it’s an apt analogy  A "billionaire philanthropist" may give away some of their money. They will never give away any of their power.  @dramypsyd There's a reason the richest man on the planet is generally a villain, in fiction and outside of fiction. @dramypsyd I disagree. The term "philanthropist" is tailor made for improving the image of rich people. Ask yourself: when was the last time a poor person was characterized a philanthropist? I much prefer solidarity: equal people helping each other. @pexlibanis Oooh ok I like this! If we strip the positive connotation from philanthropist it’s accirate |
@dramypsyd Fact.
