This is crap.
Him suing the WEF for using his name/likeness without his consent, and winning, is what is normal. No, really. It's a standard name likeness lawsuit that's done all the time. It's like if McD's started saying Vivek was advertising their product: it's pretty standard to get them to retract that because the law is so clear that relative power doesn't matter much.
Him starting a pharma company that wasn't profitable but had a ton of investment? Literally all startup companies from about 2015ish up until the recent rate hikes were operating this way: why be profitable when investment is so easy to get?
And a quick look at "it's never gotten a product past clinical trials": That's a lie by omission, creating the impression that the company has done nothing. See, Roivant isn't just a pharma company, it also makes health care IT, like
Datavant. These are useful, but aren't drugs, so obviously aren't going through clinical trials.
It also ignores how long clinical trials take, and whether clinical trials are specifically the tests used for what you are doing.
Anyway, look up Roivant, it basically is like any other Pharma-Tech.
In regards to his creating of an investment fund, that was done precisely to counter ESG stuff and give people an option to opt out of ESG in the private sector.
EDIT: looking at Roivant's main page, they've had 10 phase 3 clinical trial successes and 6 FDA approvals, so IDK where the guy is getting this from.
The idea that people don't become organically popular, btw, is just false. Obama did during his primary vs Clinton (the Neolib clear favorite), and so did Trump. It's not necessarily good, but it does happen.
