Make money for himself and those under him and improve the PC game space. He does both both unapologetically and without secrets or shady shit. Honestly, it's not his responsibility to fix the world. It's ours collectively. He does his small part to improve what he can. He saw a need and he does his best to fill it. And at the same time he pays his workers the highest wages in the entire industry. Most people who work at valve are millionaires. I believe billionaires need to be taxed out of existence but this one is not the one that we need to hang first permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 5 child comments replies: [+] Cevilia@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 7 months ago (4 children) [deleted] permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 4 child comments replies: [–] Tollana1234567@lemmy.today 4 points 7 months ago its the politicians that are enabling this to happen they are supposed to do that, and to keep billionaires in check. permalink fedilink source parent [–] Xenny@lemmy.world 3 points 7 months ago* (2 children) It's not his job to feed the world either.

That's the system we live under and we can fix that and change it but until we do denigrating this one man out of all the evil billionaires is kind of strange. He also funds a Marine research facility that maps the ocean floor and gives scientists access to deep sea diving tools and submarines. He donates to charity occasionally, to the tune of hundreds of thousands to millions. What have you done other than complain on the internet? You need to understand the propaganda machine's in full swing. There are enemies online that pretend to be your allies and they slowly turn your opinions. You're being brainwashed. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [+] Cevilia@lemmy.blahaj.zone 0 points 7 months ago (1 child) [deleted] permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 1 child comment replies: [+] Xenny@lemmy.world 2 points 7 months ago* (1 child) [removed by mod] permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 1 child comment replies: [–] Xenny@lemmy.world 1 point 7 months ago Censorship on my Lemmy?
