Tbf I would be interested too if they just added in "he was billionaire because he has been working as tenured professor for last 700 years. I cannot emphasize it enough when I say he was NOT a plantation owner."
He did own a company that owned a lot of plantations, sure, but he wasn't directly overseeing any of his businesses because he was so dedicated to his true passion: teaching extremely outdated views on ethics, race, and eugenics.
