Philanthropy is about rich people avoiding taxes, hiding money while making it look like their helping. Really they helping themselves just look how much richer Bill G became after “giving away his money”. Philanthropy is more about billionaires reputations/ appearances than actual helping, psychopath billionaires wouldn’t give a twig to someone unless it invoked tax breaks. Putting money to their own “foundation/charity” and then claim they are helping people.
Anyone here recieved any help or see anyone get help from any “philanthropic organisation” ever?

@Lol wow as if billionaires need your help to defend them, you will never join them enjoy being their puppet I guess, but money is a terrible god and a terrible way to judge someone. The best hardest working people I know are poor AF. While Beso makes billions in a day he continues to under pay and over work his people many of whom need government aid despite working more than full time…. if you can’t see the obvious wealth disparity or the fact there is more than enough for everybody without “stealing” from anyone. They steal people’s lives they become empty husks of people, taking time from what’s actually important, family, learning, self-improvement, creation, health, and loving the infinite splendors this world can offer.

July 30, 2020 at 8:09 pm
@rivenraven1 you obviously see no difference between unique work and copy paste work. mental non copy paste work is asking more from person rather than manual labor or work by premaid plan like teachers have, because you earn by being different like actors or genius painters, designers, something where you can tell who did it or you work with high risk whee you earn more but risk more an need to be very good. People can’t earn equally because we are all different and it depends if you find what you are good at, i believe university teachers earn much more than school ones because they need to do publishing along with teaching. More creativityand yoh in your work, the more you earn. We can all make effort and change the system which limits some work from any benefit of showing what they can do, rather than just taking konah from someone’s pocket. Your example of underpaying and stealing is extrem and not so common.

I wonder how Mr. Walker came across this type of work? As a little black girl born in a military town in Texas but grew up in a small town in Louisiana you aren’t exposed to these types of careers, you are drilled in your head that you can only be the top 5 careers ( teacher, doctor, lawyer, police officer or fireman). Little black girls and boys aren’t exposed to these types of careers,…. why is that? Which leads to my next question, how does a program like this choose who to help support/fund? If you are suggesting that the wealthy are a bit removed from poor people problems. Mr. Walker and his team can’t know about everything that’s out there especially if people like myself didn’t even know a career like this exist let alone knowing who Mr. Walker is, who in my opinion is doing great work, just from what he has shared in this Ted talk. I’m totally looking him up and his career path. It’s truly important to know who the people are that help fund and operate our leaders and organizations.

@KESHRENEE You didn’t mention anyone failing anybody … Really? Then could you explain what this means:
“Little black girls and boys aren’t exposed to these types of careers,…. why is that?”
Either you’re looking for the reason that *some* “little black girls and boys” have not been exposed to a variety of career options or you’re not looking for the reason. However since YOU asked the question I quoted above, it would seem to be safe to think you wanted an answer to that question. Since you’re back tracking from the question now, it does seem that you’re not very vested in what you said in that post. I wonder why … perhaps you’re not even referring to your own life but making up something because you have some convoluted agenda.
It is narrow minded of you to assume anything about anyone’s ethnicity that they’ve never told you about nor have you visualize for yourself. To claim that person is relying on “yawl privilege”, certianly is a bitter and prejudice point of view. I wonder just how much knowledge and experience you’ve blocked from yourself by your own mental attitude.

Our food supply is oil dependant.
Please Google:-
Green revolution.
When I was born in 1948 there were 2 billion people living on planet Earth. Now there are 7 billion. The Green revolution made that possible.
Three ways our food supply is oil dependant.
The Green revolution – a range of agricultural chemicals that tripled food production.
Farm machinery powered by diesel from oil.
Transport powered by diesel.
The discovery of oil peaked in 1964. Since then in each decade less oil was found than the previous decade. In 2019 Rystad Energy reported that the global discovery of oil had declined to 9 billion barrels. Mankind consumes 36 billion barrels PA.
9 billion barrels is sufficient to run the world for 3 months.
9 billion barrels is 27 billion barrels short of what is required.
Soon demand will exceed supply. Price will escalate. Eventually oil products will become ESSENTIAL SERVICES ONLY.
Expensive oil means expensive food.
A shortage of oil means a shortage of food.
Please grow your own food.
The next crisis is a food crisis.

You should thank our Feminists for fucking over the black population. They promoted the ‘victimhood’ in blacks under the guise of kindness & saying they should demand compensation for wrong doings…
–The problem with that is as you likely have seen… Blacks on average stop… they don’t attempt to get past the first set of failures in their life & demand they be compensated for it…. & the issue with that is .. ‘live is unfair’, and EVERYONE but prodigies fails a good number of times before they find their success… we just don’t hear about it most the time.
Blacks have been made mental slaves to masters that they invent…. and now they are having their entire essence used to destabilize a nation, attack others, & take from them. I wonder what it would seem like to people if we could see everyones life. Blacks are useful for the coal for burning everything to the ground.. They have been installed with mentality of failure, so they can be used as coal to attack others. [surprisingly sick if you ask me]
— All the while, the ones doing it are doing in the name of kindness & are genuinely immune to critique…. and the real kindness gets treated as well evil.
—- How much would have been different if in the 70’s/80’s we instead ‘declared’ racism against blacks gone & that any black that failed .. did so because THEY failed. would that IDK .. maybe promote personal accountability or the drive to succeed past the obsticals in the way… because ‘you’ve been oppressed & deserve compensation’ clearly has produced worthless black community whom teaches their kids to be mental slaves to masters that they make up.

How to disrupt Corruption in Philanthropy
Sasha Townsend - Tulsa
July 29, 2020 at 4:27 pm
Respectfully, Darren, you manage a $13.7 billion philanthropic organization. You have a lot of privilege! Much more than many of the people whose minds you claim to read. I know you think that those with privilege feel entitled to skip to the front of the line and that they should give it up, but I’m wondering who actually feels that way (I’ve never met anyone who feels that way) and what exactly you expect people to give up.
Let’s say an underrepresented minority gets a bachelor’s degree, and is now making $40K per year rather than just scraping by. Is that person privileged? Is that person allowed to celebrate their success? Is that person allowed to save for a year so he can buy fast pass tickets for his family when they go to Disney world, so that they don’t have to stand in line all day? Do you think that the fast pass shouldn’t exist? Do you think we should all stand in line in solidarity with those who can’t afford the fast pass tickets? What about those who can’t afford the ticket to get into the park? Should the theme park not exist because its existence only benefits those that can afford to go? Similarly, should private schools not exist, because their existence only benefits those that can afford to go?
I’m an overrepresented (Asian) female minority that went to a private university on grants, scholarships, and student loans that I’ll be paying off well into my 40s. Any student that got accepted to that school with similar financial background would have had the same opportunity to either pay for the expensive education, or choose to be in less debt and attend a public school. At my first job after college, I made about $40K per year. Am I allowed to say that I earned it? Am I allowed to believe that my hard work, effort, sacrifice and financial choice to go into student loan debt for that private school education contributed to me reaching my goal? You say it’s about standing in solidarity with all of those who believe your diagnosis that income inequality is the problem. Implicit in that is that anyone who disagrees with you is being selfish and privileged, including those that make $40K per year and donate to charity, and save up for nice experiences for their families. Is it fair that I made $40K per year after going to school for years (and taking on debt in the process) while some of my neighbors made less? Is it fair for me to be able to save and be financially responsible when others have trouble with financial responsibility? Some people might say that it’s not fair that I was able to get a private school education by borrowing money, but anyone with the background I had who was accepted to that school would have had the same opportunities to borrow. The only privilege I had was getting in, and that privilege was due to the grades I got at a community college prior to applying to that expensive school. Was I privileged to pay for community college on student loans, grants, and scholarships? Was I privileged to grow up with grandparents who valued education?
I believe what Chris said about language and inequality and working together to make the world a better place. I won’t deny my students the privilege of celebrating their successes. They had opportunities and took advantage of them, much like you did, Darren, and now they have the privilege of saving and spending their own money. Anyone with a college education and any kind of financial freedom (even that due to saving and spending from a small salary wisely) would be labeled privileged and entitled in this scheme. It seems that the only way to be considered “woke” is to be financially irresponsible OR to agree with your philosophy that any income inequality is wrong. Making $40K per year while your neighbors struggle isn’t fair. Contributing and giving back isn’t enough. Only when everyone makes exactly the same income and spends it in exactly the same way on exactly the same products and services will the world be truly equitable. Of course – I don’t agree with this, but it’s implicit when you say that the fast pass at a theme park implies that some people feel entitled to skip to the front of the line. That’s not true. Some people believe that if you save your money, and you prioritize some things over others, like skipping to the front of the line at a theme park, you are free to choose to spend your money that way, because you earned it. I don’t think it’s wrong to appreciate the fact that your efforts (and all of the efforts of those who supported and loved you) got you to where you are today.
When you prejudge people as entitled, when you create a straw man that is so ignorant, arrogant, and easy to attack, and then you put people in that category, you are engaging in prejudice. Prejudging and assigning motives, attitudes, and other attributes to people that they don’t have is what prejudice is.
Real change requires listening — even to those people who you want to put in their place. You’re putting people who make $40K per year and put themselves through school on student loans in their place while sitting as President of a foundation that distributes $13.7 billion per year. I know you think those people who don’t agree with you, those people who think they earned their $40K per year, are the problem, because they fail to agree with you, but you aren’t really listening to them. Implicit in your assumption is that anyone who disagrees with you is arrogant and ignorant. Only people who agree with you are truly humble and informed. That’s pretty self-serving… You’re prejudging them based on your preconceived notions of who they are instead. I think I understand where you’re coming from though…I wouldn’t like that straw person either. That fictional person is truly arrogant and ignorant! Thank God that person is a figment of someone’s imagination and doesn’t actually exist.
That being said, there was so much that you said that I agree with, Darren, and I loved the quote from the article that had the word nuance in the title. Nuance is right. Humility, empathy, kindness, and a willingness to solve problems together is the way to go. Attacking people who recently went from poverty to being middle class through getting a personally funded education and thinking that their hard work contributed to that is a distraction from larger and more important issues. Those attacks, and that participation in cancel culture, are fun for some people. The self-righteousness and schadenfreude are addictive. Some are drawn to it because it feels so good (to them) to look down on others. I hope we’ll focus on seeing and addressing real problems instead. Telling people that they have no right to believe that their hard work contributed at all to their small salary is attacking the little guy from a place of privilege. What do they call that? I think I read somewhere recently that it’s called “punching down”. When a person who runs a $13.7 billion dollar organization attacks someone who makes $40K per year for believing they earned it, and then using that money responsibly to have nice experiences with their family, I think that may qualify as punching down. It doesn’t elevate the narrative or solve anything to belittle the people you hope will change their minds. It’s probably the easiest way to make someone defensive, and least effective way to change their minds and even less effective at changing the reality of income inequality.

If anything is pernicious and leads to societal division it is affirmative action. The recipient of affirmative action ends up believing that they only got their position because of their ethnicity, whether or not they are competent enough to hold the position.
In some cases it leads to college students getting on courses that they have not reached an appropriate level of ability to undertake. This leads to the affirmative action student either dropping out or changing to a less demanding subject. This is not good for the affirmative action recipient or the person who could have had their place.

BIP – The hottest new currency in 2020
If anyone ever knows that the DRK (DeFi project) currency only increased by 40 times, then I recommend introducing another currency that surpasses DRK, BIP (Minter Networt) .BIP has the following advantages:
-BIP is both a platform currency like ETH, NEO, EOS, WASE, ADA, TRON, DRK … (meaning it can generate many other tokens based on the BIP platform and sell ICOs, STOs …) Currency like XRP, XLM … Transferring money via BIP takes less than 5 seconds (200 times faster than the currency above)
-There is minterpay , including transferring money from BIP to fifat money worldwide, buying cards and gifts via BIP, calling cards via BIP around the world …. Even in Russia , they also pay for bread, coffee, electricity and water through BIP
-BIP has API for instant money transfer and payment
– BIP bet is 54.46% per annum (meaning you have a passive income for hours, get interest after 10 minutes of deposit). Limited to 10 billion coins in 6 years. Currently there are 2.2 billion. There are 5 more years to exploit the remaining 7.8 billion BIP
(Of those 2.2 billion BIPs, 2.1 billion of the coins were locked to continue mining. That means people are making the most of it.)
How to authorize BIP to earn interest
-BIP with a diverse ecosystem of thousands of tokens created from the BIP platform can exchange with BIP (this is much better than DRK)
– in terms of total BIP supply, total supply is 10 billion while total supply of DRK is 15 billion
-In price: DRK has increased by 40 times while BIP has only been on the market for 2 months so few people know that it is still very low.
-Learn about BIP here:
-Buy BIP on 3 floors:
1. (should buy this floor because of price stability, fee rags, kyc within 5 minutes or not kyc also)
2.
3.
(These two exchanges can buy BIP but it is expensive and the fees are high.)
