take on an authoritarian regime to finance an alternative media environment that would still be sticking with true reporting, we're screwed.
Every billionaire will be more concerned about being able to hold on to the billions they've been hoarding. When the price of supporting democracy goes higher than its current rate, they will all become allies autocracy. In other words they will all end up doing what Bezos did. Because their billions are far more valuable to them over anything else.
Maybe McKenzie Bezos may emerge as the exception, who knows?
