As many of you fine people may know, Bono asked us how we can make poverty history, and we replied using YAHOO ANSWERS.
2 months later, I'm just reading through these answers, and stumbled onto a disturbing observation...not everyone loves Bono like we do!!!
These people believe he's a hypocrite, a rich man unwilling to share his billions, doing it all for the publicity, yadda yadda, so on.
Of course all of us fans know better, because we know Bono more than most people. We know what's he done, why he's doing it, and what things he will continue to accomplish.
It doesn't bother Bono that a lot of people don't like him, he's not trying to be liked by everyone, he's working for the poor people who need his voice.
HOWEVER, it bothers the HECK out of me that so many people are so apathetic and dismiss his ideas and efforts, without having much background knowledge of the AIDS, poverty, etc...crisis.
Yes, I'm biased. I like Bono, the man and the music. A lot. Not like hero or god worship, but I wish there was more people like him in the world. I'm just so peeved and disappointed at the world...
Grrr. Any thoughts? and I go back to my English homework...
