Billionaire Bill Gates recently called the rise of the greatest mass murderer in world history, the Chinese Communist Party (CCP), a “huge win for the world.” Gates also praised the extremely authoritarian COVID-19 lockdowns of Australia and urged the U.S. to be less hostile to China. Which lead to the question: Why is an American billionaire touting murderous totalitarianism and praising America’s worst enemy?
The Epoch Times reported that Bill Gates urged America and Australia to be conciliatory to the CCP. “I see China’s rise as a huge win for the world,” Gates enthused to the Lowry Institute in Sydney, Australia on Jan. 23. “[T]he current mentality of the U.S. to China—and which is reciprocated—is kind of a lose-lose mentality.”
The billionaire, who
has been tied to vaccine scandals for years, mourned that U.S.-China hostility could impede medical progress and work on climate change. “That could be very self-fulfilling in a very negative way,” Gates said, referring to the “lose-lose mentality.” He did not seem concerned that China is the
world’s biggest polluter and
considers forced live organ harvests routine medical procedures. Not to mention the fact that the CCP
is responsible for up to 500 million deaths.
”We’re all in this together. We’re humans. We innovate together and we have to change the modern industrial economy together in a pretty dramatic fashion,” Gates blathered. I contest the assertion that Gates is himself a human, but I find his vague plan for “dramatic” economic change worrying. What does he envision?
The Microsoft founder seems to admire failure if it leads to more money and power for elites. In fact, Gates, who
invested hundreds of millions in the COVID-19 vaccines, once called vaccines the “best investment” he ever made,
boasting to CNBC that he had made a 20-to-1 financial return on his vaccine investments (I guarantee at least some of that is a personal benefit). That’s probably why he loves Australia’s COVID-19 policies. Sure, the country
rounded up COVID-positive citizens and
transported them to “quarantine camps,”
arrested escapees from the camps, and then
imposed a restrictive COVID vaccine mandate (the vaccines that turned out to have been
very ineffective at stopping the spread of COVID). But Gates is a fan nonetheless.
