Hi. In today's episode, we look at how billionaires often benefit from their supposed altruism and why we can't rely on their "generosity" to solve society's problems.

You know how I know the charities are a scam? Because I'm setting up my own DAF to avoid the 43% tax on my highest income, so I know they're a way to legally cheat paying taxes.

I drove around Montecito loudly playing Eat the Rich from Motorhead. Am I a philanthropist? I'm pretty sure I'm a philanthropist now.

"He can barely tweet!" Uh oh, might need a last minute edit!

Last week there was an episode about the tourism issue in Hawaii, which I have hoping for for ages because this is my home, and now I get an episode about how corporate philanthropy is a scam, which is one of my main “annoying commie” talking points??? At this point I think my mind is being read

You're right Katy, I Am God. Also, leave Worm Hitler alone!

I dunno how to break it to y'all but you could absolutely operate Some More News Inc as a public charity if you were willing to do the paperwork

Bernie isn't going to run again. Cornell West is the biggest name on the Left to throw their hat into the ring. Of course he won't win - but then, of course Bernie wasn't going to win either. Whether a leftist runs in the Democratic primaries or under their own banner has no impact on whether they'll win, only on whether they lose in the Spring (against the Democratic Party's corporate control) or in November (against the USA's corporate control). The basic point of a leftist running for POTUS isn't to become POTUS - that's delusional - it's to put the leftist platform into the realm of public debate. The more advanced point - if someone would only do this part - is to help build an ongoing organization in all of the Congressional and state legislative districts that can challenge the duopoly at its basis, and where it's weakest.

Jesus Christ. Please, please don't vote for Sanders. The man would be a perfectly acceptable President. That said, there is no more sure way to Trump 2028 than getting Sanders through the primaries. Hopefully, all these old bastards die soon and we can look at some actual new blood. Like, ideally, Biden doesn't make it through the second term he is about to win.

Lord love a duck, I fucking hate Oprah and her aspirational bullshit. I think she's done more damage than any other billionaire alive.

Oh my god thank you so much for creating a video I can point to when I’m having these conversations. It’s so hard to drive home for people the bullshit pageantry of billionaire’s being “charitable”

Zack Spiller

What a great episode! Will you be releasing the script for this episode as well?

I'm laughing for like 5 minutes over the "The Ring/that's how the water tastes" joke. No idea why, but that one busted me up. Great episode. I love the focus on how a charity should go away once it fulfills its narrow purpose.
