Rich Bill

Did you know that Bill Gates' primary residence in Seattle boasts 7 bedrooms, 24 bathrooms, a 60-foot pool with an underwater music system, a 2,500-square-foot gym, a 1,000-square-foot dining room, six kitchens, and a trampoline room with a 20-foot ceiling?

If the people who are urging us to reduce our carbon footprints are living lives of excess, how can we trust their motivations and the validity of their claims about man-made climate change?

The man worked for that. We may or may not like him, and we may not like Microsoft products but his efforts democratized data access, and brought compute power to every corner of this planet.

Yes correct, but I think the point the tweet was getting to is that he consistently pushes the narrative on citizens like you and I that WE have to cut down on a multitude of lifestyles while HE does no such thing and is way more excessive.
