Yeah, that’s great and all but can’t he just pay his fair share of taxes?

Do you think it'd be spent on free preschool for low income families? We both know it'd be spent on guns and bombs so let's just chill with trying to increase tax revenue for a government that misappropriates most of it.

Hi! Just have to ask, why do you think Jeff Bezos would want to teach people about Marxism?

Bezos is far from perfect & should pay better wages etc. BUT -- this is a good thing he's doing. Celebrate good deeds. Reminder, the Trump family is banned from running a charity because of malfeasance. They've never given anything away, couldn't care less about low income kids.

Everyone is better when you compare them to Trump; don’t let the rest of society off so easily. This charitable nod by Bezos is another band-aid to the reputation of billionaires who are bleeding the country dry. It’s not ungrateful to acknowledge the system they perpetuate.

Oh, thank you, all-powerful Saint Jeff, for the tiny morsels that you found between your couch cushions from your endless billions!
Kiitos. Käytämme tätä aikajanasi parantamiseen. KumoaKumoa

So... That means, like, what? Bezos gave away the equivalent of 50 cents of his wealth. lol. Stop falling for this shit: philanthropy and other bs announcements like this act as camouflage to escape accountability.

Gave away 50c to charity but will somehow get 17 trazillion in tax deductions off that 50c.

The billionaire gambit: - Create social problems thru inhumane business practices - Frame yourselves as heroes for “philanthropically” throwing a little money at the problems that you created - Worsen social problems thru ongoing inhumane practices & dehumanizing policy advocacy
-
Bonus points: Throw the money at a foundation you yourself created and control, so your donations are tax deductible but also a lever for you to influence policy and a cudgel to beat people with when they rightly accuse you of perpetuating these problems in the first place.
