    Tbf gabe has been pushing for ocean exploration for a long time since we barely know our oceans and he has the money to fund that. Very cool stuff normal people can’t do.

      The governments of normal people could be doing it but the money is going to billionaires instead.

        There are a lot of things governments are not doing that people with money do that benefit everyone and that’s a good thing imo. Governments want to be liked and be re-elected by the mass and that means doing the things a lot of people care about wich is a good thing too. A lot of good is also being done in the world not by billionaires or governments but by groups of people with goals that asks for funding from average people and rich people to reach their goals. I will always applaud people for doing good things. That doesn’t mean i can’t be very critical when they are doing bad things. As far as i know the boats gabe newell is buying are for research and not to chill and have parties.
