Evidence and reasoning

All evidence came from a trustable article

Evidence 1

813148 — 2024-04-17 17:13:11 UTC

“You paid journalists like Mary French Sheldon to write newspaper articles about you as a philanthropist.”

Reasoning 1

813148 — 2024-04-17 17:14:06 UTC

He tried and succeeded in disguising his actions and had no remorse or consciousness toward what he was doing. He just wanted people to think he was a good man when in reality he was horrible.

Evidence 2

813148 — 2024-04-17 17:14:38 UTC

“Your wealth and power was used to enslave the people of congo”

Reasoning 2

813148 — 2024-04-17 17:16:07 UTC

He abused his power and enslaved people all under his disguise and he just wanted more and more money that he didn't need.

Evidence 3

813148 — 2024-04-17 17:16:49 UTC

“The power you abused resulted in the death of approximately 8 million people.”

Reasoning 3

He himself never even visited the Congo and somehow without even seeing the people had no remorse for those deaths and was just a psychopath.
