minus-squareOldManBOMBIN@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up19arrow-down1·edit-217 hours agoNo, you’re just wrong. You said that a billionaire can’t do anything good. The other guy said that billionaires can perform good actions but can’t truly be considered good people. I made no remarks about billionaires at all - only tried to clarify your misunderstanding.
