One thing Bob knows is pulling things. Usually, it’s at massage parlors, but hey.
So is sex work shameful or not? Make up your mind guys
Sex work is fine. Billionaires supporting a fascist genocide is not.
So why bring sex work into it?
I don’t know anything about what the OP was referring to, so I couldn’t tell you.
Oh, so you jumped in to defend someone while, admittedly, having no idea what was going on? I’m confused.
I don’t need the context of the situation to know either statement is true. If the guy had something with sex workers, I’d need more context to actually criticize those actions. As it stand though, sex work is fine, billionaires are bad, and billionaires supporting fascist genocides makes me wonder why we aren’t drawing and quartering.
More a question of the man’s financial priorities.
This is why we need to strengthen department of education. Otherwise these asshole billionaires will run education system like theirs own fiefdoms.
Of course repubes want to get rid of department of education. Perfectly on brand.
Yes, tell the administrators to whip those students into shape, that’ll bring them around.
Certainly won’t have any blowback in the least.
We need to just, like, cancel money. Fuck these twats and their useless ignorant influence. How dare you put education on the line to defend genocide
garbage human
He’s pulling support from the school that’s cracking down so heavily and violently on the protests? What’s he for I’m having trouble understanding the logic here.

What reasons

No idea who he is but good for him. If more of the aristocracy announce themselves we will know who to not give a fuck about.
No idea how he got rich, but he owns the NE Patriots (US) football team
So he’s pulling support from the school, effectively he supports the protesters and staff who walked and not the school who is trying to make them go away. I don’t care about his mouth words, his actions matter more.
Uncomfortable billionaire is at least a step in the right direction
Schools are taking people’s free speech! Wait, I’m not donating to schools until they do it more! But to those I dislike!
It should be prohibited for schools, hospitals and politics to depend on investors
Well, it’s not an investor, just a donor. Almost all universities and colleges are non-profits, so they do not have investors.
I dont really care what they are called. They donate not as charity but to get something in return. It can be promotion, goodwill, influence, access to top picks etc. That is IMO investing
Sure, I get what you mean. But how do you stop that in any non-profit? It could be a local community organization that buys books for kids, then some rich guy donates a shit ton of specific books. You can’t stop people from donating, yknow?
(edit: for the record, I was the upvote on that last comment, not the downvote. not trying to make this a fight)
Actually, you can tell people “no thank you”… to go with your example, if the books donated were Mein Kampf or something like that.
I am not arguing against donations. My point is them being depended on them. Some places it is free to go to university, college etc. medical care. Other places it costs a fee. There is no reason for them to become dependent on donations especially politicians
Also who cares about up/down votes!?
Not saying I care about the votes. Just saying I don’t downvote people in a discussion (unless they are engaging in bad faith/trolling), since I noticed someone had downvoted your comment almost immediately.
That being said, even in some countries with excellent health care standards, organizations depend on outside donations. I imagine a similar thing happens in education but I can’t say for sure, since it isn’t my field.
Although, just for the sake of playing devil’s advocate, any system dependent on govt funding could be corrupted by the govt’s agenda, just like a donor could shape a nonprofit.
I agree, that they are, but argue that they shouldn’t
Almost all universities and colleges are non-profits
That’s more a tax-dodge gambit than a reflection of their business policies.
No relation to Kraft/Heinz, so continue to enjoy your boxed mac n cheese.
So he will stop donating. Funding is not what he is doing. The school is funded without this schmuck.
Columbia has a $13.6B endowment, which has consistently grown at 8-10% annually.
Kraft has historically donated in the $5M range annually. So, less than 1% of what the university earns on a portfolio whose principle never gets touched.
… Palestinians? I thought they were protesting Gustavo Petro’s reforms.
