People all over twitter complaining about zuckerberg's $25M donation. These people deserve to die if we're all being honest.

There are always a plethora of people willing to tell someone else what they should do with their money.

Feel the Bern?

You get to arbitrarily decide who lives and who dies?

I have heaard nothing about it.

Why do celebrities feel compelled to broadcast what they are donating?

Now that I know I am so moved by Zuckerberg that I will donate a similar percentage of my wealth. Where do I send the $10?

If they aren’t donating something, then they should STFU.

Donators can STFU as well.

This is the first I'm hearing of it as well. I don't know why they would need to broadcast their donations, whatever the amount. Seems like a way to assuage the guilt of having so much money.

because it brings in more money from others. It's not that complicated to understand.

Do not disagree.

Although I would be willing to concede a little to the donating parties making it public only bc they’re trying to get other celebrities to donate.

ETA get that upvote castor

And yes OP, the "It's just a tax wrote off for him/her" and the "that's like us donating $10" people are "literally the worst!"

That was a very substantial amount of money being donated to help this problem.

I see nothing wrong with it.

Bunch of pussies out there looking for something to bitch about.

They are all hypocrites. Ask them to stop flying on private planes and redistribute 90% of their wealth . They'd be like, wait, me too?

let's say they're doing it for attention... Is the $25M he donated somehow different bills that are worth less?
No, the money is worth the same.

No doubt. I'd say they get even more negative press because normal people like us arent really praising them for it then you have the loud asswipes criticizing them for it not being enough. I'd love for the Zuck to come out with a statement and say next time he will just keep his $ so they can be comfortable with him giving the same amount of his net worth as they are.
