Philanthropy exists to launder the reputations of the rich.
@KeithDJohnson I don’t care if it’s a PR stunt or done for completely selfish reasons like taxes, as long as it actually helps people. We need to keep exposing rich cons and remind the public of their actual awfulness, but philanthropy is often 1 of only 2 positive contributions to society that rich people make. The other is the joy they bring people when they die.
