Original Note:
Bill Gate is not considered an extinctionist.

This quote has often been misinterpreted. https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/factcheck/2023/03/23/fact-check-post-misleads-bill-gates-comment-vaccines-population-growth/11527555002/ https://www.reuters.com/article/fact-check/bill-gates-quoteabout-vaccines-and-population-growth-has-beentaken-out-of-cont-idUSL1N2MF1L8/ https://www.factcheck.org/2021/03/scicheck-video-targets-gates-with-old-clip-misleading-edit/
