Gates was born wealthy and connected and is now one of the richest humans on the planet, and owns or controls multiple corporate media companies (his foundation funds UK media company the guardian 'global development', the UK BBC 'world service trust as european based examples, Conde Nast in the US (Wired etc) are effectively Gates PR mouthpieces). As an oligarch he can pronounce as a 'philanthropist' on global public policy direction with little or no media pushback or investigation into his affairs. He follows in the footsteps of Carnegie, Mellon and other powerful monopoly business titans in the era of Davos globalists and is the consummate big league globalist.
