So your definition of the word criminal only extends to people who got caught and convicted? In your definition a murderer who hasn’t been caught is not a criminal?
No, he’s not, because nobody has proven that he actually did murder someone.
Saying someone is a criminal without any actual evidence and due process is possibly very harmful for that person, you’d agree if someone accused you of doing something you didn’t do and faced having your life ruined over such a baseless accusation
Well, if they have to discern the two meanings, it’s because it might have a different meaning in different contexts, at least that’s how I’d understand it.
The context of “Altman is a criminal” fits neither, as it’s not a publicly known fact that he has commited a crime, nor has he been convicted of one.
Allegations that his sister made are just that, allegations, it does not make him a criminal.
Nothing good comes from criminal billionaires like Altman or Gates.
Gates did pretty well with his work against Malaria.
Yeah but I read a propaganda piece written by some dude in russia so
Lol
People are still blaming Gates as if he didn’t retire a few years ago.
Satya Nadella is currently the Microsoft CEO.
Ha! Absolutely correct and also just to drive the point home, “a few years” means 15 years.
So how exactly are they criminals? I must’ve missed their trials where they got convicted of a crime
