Original Note:
Bill Gates' 2010 Ted Talk discussed encouraging people to have fewer kids. The pictured article implies he said it was to kill people, which is a lie. https://www.weforum.org/agenda/2018/09/africas-rapid-population-growth-puts-poverty-progress-at-risk-says-gates/ https://www.typeinvestigations.org/investigation/2020/05/12/the-long-strange-history-of-bill-gates-population-control-conspiracy-theories/ https://www.reuters.com/article/factcheck-gates-vaccine/fact-check-bill-gates-quoteabout-vaccines-and-population-growth-has-beentaken-out-of-contextagain-idUSL1N2MF1L8 There are arguments against his speech that do not involve lying. This article is not one of them.
