As I read your excellent comment, I'm trying to find the bit where the world would be better off if Bezos wasn't a part of EA and I'm not sure I can. Without EA he might still have some BS foundation like many before (I'm not actually taking a stance on his work, I have no idea about it). He might use one to push his weight around and have an outsized influence. Maybe without the label of EA there would be more pressure to justify the scope and impact of charitable work? I'm not sure. |

Are you being snarky? I genuinely can’t tell, sorry if you aren’t.
> trying to find the bit where the world would be better off if..
You’re right. I don’t genuinely know. I get the feeling more and more each day that our system is hardcore stupid broken.
My gut feeling is that the existence of Bezos and EA are, on the whole, part and parcel. Bezos is the product of a system that warps mankind around working to build empires for the few that win the Pareto distribution game. EA feels like the latest contemporary whitewash used to protect it.
Maybe I’m just a loser and I deserved to be fucked over at the grocery store and the doctors office for existing but not having more to give to my employer. I just wish my perception would catch up to reality.
