Welcome to the News community!
Rules:
1. Be civil
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on.
2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.
Obvious biased sources will be removed at the mods’ discretion. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted separately but not to the post body. Sources may be checked for reliability using Wikipedia, MBFC, AdFontes, GroundNews, etc.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source. Clickbait titles may be removed.
Posts which titles don’t match the source may be removed. If the site changed their headline, we may ask you to update the post title. Clickbait titles use hyperbolic language and do not accurately describe the article content. When necessary, post titles may be edited, clearly marked with [brackets], but may never be used to editorialize or comment on the content.
5. Only recent news is allowed.
Posts must be news from the most recent 30 days.
6. All posts must be news articles.
No opinion pieces, Listicles, editorials, videos, blogs, press releases, or celebrity gossip will be allowed. All posts will be judged on a case-by-case basis. Mods may use discretion to pre-approve videos or press releases from highly credible sources that provide unique, newsworthy content not available or possible in another format.
7. No duplicate posts.
If an article has already been posted, it will be removed. Different articles reporting on the same subject are permitted. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.
8. Misinformation is prohibited.
Misinformation / propaganda is strictly prohibited. Any comment or post containing or linking to misinformation will be removed. If you feel that your post has been removed in error, credible sources must be provided.
9. No link shorteners or news aggregators.
All posts must link to original article sources. You may include archival links in the post description. News aggregators such as Yahoo, Google, Hacker News, etc. should be avoided in favor of the original source link. Newswire services such as AP, Reuters, or AFP, are frequently republished and may be shared from other credible sources.
10. Don't copy entire article in your post body
For copyright reasons, you are not allowed to copy an entire article into your post body. This is an instance wide rule, that is strictly enforced in this community.

Should have shared the money with the workers who built the company into a $1.6B valuation and worth acquisition.
Jesus Christ, it's never good enough for you, why even bother trying.
Just because he gave it away, doesn't remove his responsibility for how he "earned" it.
I agree, but it doesn’t sound like his choices are bad. There’s a comment further down.
Look, at least he does not seem to have raped anyone.
That's a low bar.
At least there is a bar
....by working hard for it?
He didn't work hard for it, his underpaid employees did. He just sold their hard work and kept the exorbitant profit.
At the end of the day, stolen wages are still stolen wages.
Lol, i know, right?
So many upvotes for the guy above you defending billionaires
That's correct, there's no way to be the good guy in a system like this. All you can do is try
duckin' A
If anything he should have invested it into effecting political change. But that other person is right; it's never good enough for you.
In Russia that's an oligarchy. Yet here you are advocating it?
Oh, for fuck's sake.
I'm not advocating for the system. I'm just suggesting a way the money could do the greatest good.
Money can buy political change. That shouldn't be true, but it is.
If you're so hungry for a target to be mad at that you imagine them like this, maybe it's time to take a little break.
