The Queen’s passing has been worldwide news, with even Jeff Bezos sending tweets in support of her detractors.
Amazon founder Jeff Bezos quoted a tweet from Carnegie Mellon professor Uju Anya, who’d written several hours before: “I heard the chief monarch of a thieving raping genocidal empire is finally dying. May her pain be excruciating.”
Bezos, quoting the post, then tweeted: “This is someone supposedly working to make the world better? I don’t think so. Wow.”
Perhaps some people thought Bezos sticking up for the Queen was a noble act.
However, for many others seeing one of the richest person ever, who flies rockets to space for fun, wade into the argument didn’t go down that well.
