People will seek out alternatives and there will be enough that aren't disillusioned with electoralism that go for that option.
A baseless claim unsupported by anything but your own wishful thinking. I'd love for that to happen, but I'm not fool enough to gamble on it.
Without organization sufficient to convince at least a third of the country that a specific party is viable, you cannot beat a strategic party with principles alone.
Incorrect. I can justify any number of results with such a monumental "if". Any strategy based on such a large number of people suddenly changing their voting tendency in such a way is unworkable. As one party splinters, the other is heavily incentivized to stay together and easily win. It's a game of chicken; the first party to break ranks is doomed. People understand this on an intuitive, tribalistic level. Fracturing the less monolithic party will only strengthen the more monolithic one. That is reality.

Edit: not to mention, feeding 42M people for a year is great, but it's a far cry from solving world hunger.
Like, how, though? Money isn't just a magic wand that makes things happen, you have to spend it on stuff. Solving world hunger is a complex technological, political, logistics problem. Where do you make the food? How do you store it? How do you get it to hungry people? How can you make that a persisting, resilient system so you're not back to square one in a few years?
He's a long term investor. He's not an agricultural scientist, or logistics expert. What more do you want him to do, personally? He's already donated something like $60B to organizations that do fight to address world hunger, and poverty, and health.
Don't get me wrong, I agree billionaires shouldn't exist, but that's a failure of the system itself. He's just playing the game he was born into. He's donated a huge portion of his wealth to these causes already, and promised to donate basically the entirety of the rest when he dies. Like what else do you want him to do about world hunger?
I would not make this requestings of a friend, much less enemy man
That's actually a thing
That's what I'm saying though. It's easy to say "Hey, this is a problem that needs to be addressed". It's a lot harder to address that problem. People aren't laying on the brakes because brakes don't just materialize from the aether by magic right when they're needed most. You have to harvest the raw rubber, vulcanize it, shape it into a pad, affix that pad to a caliper, wrap that assembly around a rotor, connect that assembly to some kind of actuator, connect that actuator to some kind of control mechanism, connect that mechanism to the brake pedal. These things take time, effort, and organization. Denigrating the collision sensor isn't helping.
the implication that another human could be that bad at hair and makeup
Have to realize that
Is his stylist a rapist or are you suggesting he does his own hair and makeup?
A histrionic straw man.
