Gates got a bunch of defenders for some reason
some people like to join the winning team. It makes them feel like winnners themselves.
It couldn't possibly have anything to do with his work in the eradication of polio and malaria, his efforts to provide clean drinking water to impoverished areas, and his program to create renewable cheap electricity for impoverished rural areas? Seems like that probably has a lot more to do with people's perspective of him than the fact that trumpy bois don't like him.
It just wasn't in your circle of influence before. He has been working in humanitarian aid for decades. His contributions are well known, and well documented. You can check for yourself, he has accomplished a great deal towards the things I mentioned.
