Sure, you can be happy that they donated money to a cause. But billionaires are the reason donations and philanthropy are necessary in the first place. You don't become a billionaire unless you're doing unethical shit and/or exploiting a lot of people (there's inheritance, but that's another problematic topic altogether).
