In a no-holds-barred blog post, Gates wrote that there were times when he wanted to dwelve deeper into social issues like Black Lives Matter protests which took the centerstage this year but there were days when he needed a 'change of pace' and read something lighter.

Happy reading!

Gates is an ugly little outcast that somehow got massive amounts of $$$, now is obsessed with power. I used to think the recent Left (since the 1980s) was Marxist. Now I am pretty convinced it’s Maoist. I am seeing a lot of what happened in the Cultural Revolution in China, happening in America. This is not going to end well. FOR THEM.

I sooner read recommendations from Dr. Seuss than Bill Gates.

I have my own list, thank you.

The Black Arts by Richard Cavendish, for example.

I’ll read anything Gates might write on Windows 7...or Excel. Anything else...I’ll take a rain check.

Books he should have read: “Coding for Dummies.” “Writing Bug-free Software.” :Being Rich Doesn’t Mean You’re Smart.”

FUBG. Yes, that's not a very intellectual response but at this point, it's all I got. I'm weary from the fight and sick of all of this. The sheer audacity of Gates and people like him that they are now in our faces telling us what to read, how to behave and how long we should be locked in our homes is disgusting. The non-stop pandering, social engineering at every turn and disrespect shown to us by the people who are supposed to be working for us (politicians) has turned us into a banana republic and third-world $hithole. Congratulations RNC and DNC, you've destroyed the shining city on a hill.

Gates has been buddy buddy with the Chinese leaders for years. He’s the ultimate globalist and elitist.

He believes in Monopolies reinforced by Government. It’s how he made his money. And that’s his blueprint for molding people into a communist society.

An array of images of Gates with all sorts of leaders from CHIIIIINA!

IF Gates recommended the Farmer’s Almanac, I wouldn’t read it.

30 days in the FB slammer now for saying Gates needs a 9mm solution.
