I'll agree that the conspiracies you mention are unhinged. However, cursory research will reveal that Gates and Gates Sr. have both been involved with the eugenics movement.
It is unfortunate how unhinged criticisms are used to dismiss what is hiding in plain sight.
>"So Melinda and I wondered if providing new medicines and keeping children alive, would that create more of a population problem?"
GATES: Here we can see a chart that looks at the total world population over the last several hundred years, and at first glance this is a bit scary. We go from less than a billion in 1800, and then 3, 4, 5, 6—and 7.4 billion, where we are today, is happening even faster. So, Melinda and I wondered whether providing new medicines and keeping children alive, would that create more of a population problem?
SCOTT PELLEY: . . . and what the developing world does not need is more children.
MELINDA GATES: And I think that was the biggest “ah-ha” to Bill and me when we got into this work. Because we asked ourselves, of course, the same hard-nosed question you’d ask, which is: “If you get into this work and you start to save these children, will women just keep overpopulating the world?” And thank goodness, the converse is absolutely true.
