Still think that if George Lucas hadn't appeared in Epstein logs, he could probably take the title of "least shitty ghoul billionaire." For being a billionaire, Lucas has done surprisingly little harm. He mostly made money off of merchandising and IP, meaning his wealth is mostly stolen surplus value from sweatshop workers. But he didn't really use his misbegotten wealth for anything truly ghoulish (outside of any alleged activities with Epstein of course). I guess you could say Lucas is the reason why we're stuck with Marvel slop and capeshit, but there were a lot of stones laid on the road to Marvel slop, and I wouldn't characterize his films as Marvel slop.
Newell as far I know doesn't have any connection with Epstein whatsoever, but he has profited immensely off of exploiting people's gambling addictions. He not only steals surplus value from his workers but takes a cut from any dev who puts their game on Steam.
