On the one hand, I think that's great. We need more nuclear power to mitigate the climate disaster.

On the other hand, I don't trust anything Bill Gates does after he totally fucked up the U.S. education system.

What’s he done to the education system in the US of A.

I'm sorry don't you think Bush, among many others, had something to do with that as well? There are more oligarchs than just Gates. The leaders of Big Tech are so far up their own ass you don't even realize you've followed them in there.

Crazy times indeed. He is for sure not the lesser evil of all the billionaires but he has the best PR team of them all.
