Story: Outrage at Gates' knighthood

Posted by: Anonymous (Wednesday 2 March 2005, 8:08 PM)

Bill Gates is every bit as deserving of knighthood as Tim Berners-Lee, Harold Evans, and other "noble" people who came before Bill. I came to this conclusion just recently, having assisted a journalist research a huge scandal that the public is being hoodwinked about by those who ultimately control society and define what "we the people" are told is the truth: namely, the rich and well-connected. That jounalist was forbidden under threat of firing, from reporting the findings.

Yes, Bill Gates is a thief. Everybody knows that. What's new? Yes, all of his current, most beloved projects are stolen; and he is bringing them to China to have them "invented" there, and then conveniently re-imported to the USA and Europe. Yes, he is committing perjury and fraud on a global scale in the process. But Bill never pretended to be an honest man! At most Bill has always said that everyone else is also "doing it" so why shouldn't he?

It's those other knighted pillars of society, those gems of humankind we should all look up to and aspire to elmulate, who have deceived everyone. Tim Berners Lee: the "supremely modest" genius, is neither. What he is, is a man trapped in the public persona he helped forge, while being a closeted Bill Gates wannabee. Tim Berners Lee, oh excuse me, Sir Timothy, having world wide notoriety, if he were a genius for example like Da Vinci, has plenty of opportunity to bestow upon the rest of us mere mortals a cornucopia of breathtaking new inventions. He cannot. He cannot because he is no more than the accidental namesake of what would have come about from technological evolutionary forces -- on their own. Instead, Berners Lee will spend the rest of his days as the rubber stamp custodian of that inane beurocracy that is the W3C. He will live out his life as the Prince of HTML, and hardly the Einstein or Newton or even Edison he has been compared to. Bill Gates, though he steals from the poor and weak and downtrodden for no other reason than that he has a psychopathic out of control male ego, and it gives him great joy in knowing that he can get away with it, because his enemies are too disorganized and stupid to react, is at least advancing society's access to new technologies.

Paradoxically, Bill Gates doesn't lie. He omits the truth and throws up smokescreens like a brilliant magician to fool the public into believing his version of things. Sadly, it's the "honest men" who do the lying. The celebrated historians, the Pulitzer Prize journalists under pressure from superiors, the Ivy League Professors and literally all of Bill's corporate foes.

Thus Bill Gates is no less deserving of knighthood. He merely joins the ranks of scoundrels who have deceived the public better than he has.

{If anyone wants to dig into the truth, try investigating the Eolas case. You won't believe it until you reach a critical mass in your investigations, but it is the epicenter of more than the public realizes. Here is a worthwhile starting point:

But be warned: you better keep a "help wanted" listing in your hands because you won't keep your job once you start attempting to expose what you find.}
