philanthropist in 2020 giving 10.1 billion to non-profit efforts associated with climate change and education.

He has also donated millions to support gay marriage, immigrant rights, and fighting homelessness, etc.

He also saved the Washington Post from bankruptcy, and despite what some have falsely alleged, Bezos does not get involved in the workings of the paper, or it’s editorial messaging

Equating Bezo as a mass murderer, is obscene nonsense without merit
