I don't like seeing Bill Gates name being smeared in such a way but it's something to question and research further. Of all the top wealth in the world, Gates is where I'd expect to find nothing but good intentions. That of course can go wrong and it does any number of times within a single lifetime but what is mentioned here is of course- extreme.

I've been a long time resident on Bill's "turf". I've seen indications of the kind of person he is as he quietly participates and contributes in local communities, including online.. Reddit's u/seattle sub reddit reported by individuals, not by self promotion. He uses his real name which works because very few people believe that the person wielding the name is the real deal.- until he does something rather profoundly kind when opportunity presents itself. It would be hard to find a person of wealth more considerate of everyone else.

It's not hard to see signs of "reaching" and manipulating context in the piece you're sharing, in attempt to impress the seed of emotional belief in an audience- the kind that ultimately determine choices and actions we take. Emotional hooks to get snagged on. They can use individuals as weapons in a war fought with easy exchanges of information.

I am however, ever wary of activities tied to the pharma industry. They are the top of the food chain- more or less in control of the USFDA and they are masters of marketing. THAT is where I have seen a lot of arm twisting and attempts to deceive, betray and manipulate public opinion. They operate through a network of industries and as mentioned, the government through two or more agencies.

They use their bottomless pockets to further injustice- never ending campaigns and lobbying efforts that seek to limit consumer choices, turn users of alternative remedies into criminals and eliminate anything that can siphon away projected profits. I am STILL fighting alongside multiple tens of thousands to protect access to alternatives while the pharma controlled FDA relentlessly attacks at local levels, deceiving pharmacy boards, dept's of agriculture and anyone else they can trick into interfering with things that for some people - are a lifeline.

I would not doubt for one second that their projects impose on communities to anchor their presence and dominate over all related operations.

Well that's enough from me but I felt a need to contribute here.
