He's a pseudo-intellectual prat.

Absolutely!
But he does raise some issues about global agriculture which maybe we should consider.

He's a ruddy vegan that's all you need to know.

75% wrong: he's a bloody oxygen thief.
Which sort of confirms that the issue facing farmers isn't what people eat, but the structure of the food chain that feeds them.

I have no issue with the bloke's diet. I just think he is a cock.

It does matter, if he was just a cock that would be fine, but people like him are also self opinionated public influencers. And as such should always be challenged to justify their hypocrisy.

I didn't know he was a vegan but it figures. He's a complete tool.

We are all in agreement about the fact that he is a 'tool' (And a vegan)
But what do you all think about the message that be was putting across in his post?
I think he raised some fair points

I have to say that I find it difficult to dispute much of what he says, just a pity he comes across as a tool. It would be good to see Gates reply to some of the criticisms levelled at him in order to get some balance. But you do get the feeling that whenever Gates does charitable work he can't help himself but to see financial opportunity in it as well.

It is incredible that some would look to him for guidance.

Just to reiterate, he is an absolute tool. There.
But that doesn't mean he can't say things that are true. While I type this, I'm also having a text conversation with a friend about the censorship on Facebook. Which is frightening because of the huge reach and influence it has. This is the same thing. It is not good for Gates to have the power and control he does. It is about as undemocratic as it gets. Think ruling monarchies, Communist party states, dictators etc. All bad when too much is in the hands of the unelected few.

I don't disagree
But for FB etc. to be able to have great influence through censorship we have already to have already have given them the even greater power of being our voice.
It's still our choice to speak through them.
Jemima Khan, Kate Moss, Geri Halliwell, Bekki Seddiki, Georgina Baillie (Not Clive's sister), Sophie Coady, Laura Gallacher, Teresa Palmer, Makosi Musambasi, Kate Lawler, Imogen Thomas, Holly Madison, Sadie Frost, Isabella Brewster and Katy Perry ... all within 3 years.
Just what am I doing wrong???
BTW, Gates is a cock too. Very strongly advocating lab grown meat.
Nothing, of course, to do with his $100m investment in a firm attempting to grow the meat. No siree.
Nuclear grade weapon is Bill

And now owns millions of acres of farmland in the US. His vision of the future is very skewed.
