Yes, actually.

You could argue (you'd be wrong) that it's bad for them to hold onto most of the billions they earned, but arguing that Gates, Elon and Bezos have produced "net negative" for the world is incredibly dumb and cynical. They've obviously produced an incredible amount of value for billions of people.

It's not so much about "value" (or most likely "money") they brought to individuals but more about which way they steer society as a whole. When you look at it this way it's not as clear cut as you appear to believe
