Dustin Moskovitz, the billionaire co-founder of Facebook and enterprise software company Asana, has talked openly about how he likes to eat meat.   But in a curious twist, the lefty Democratic megadonor has poured nearly a half-billion dollars into activist campaigns that have made it harder to run animal farms and contributed to the rising cost of eggs and meat for millions of American consumers — all while one of Moskovitz’s foundations holds a nearly $89 million stake in plant-based company Impossible Foods — meaning it could benefit if pricier meat pushes more consumers toward meat alternatives, The California Post has learned. The money trail runs through two closely linked entities of Moskovitz’s philanthropic empire: Coefficient Giving — the nonprofit formerly known as Open Philanthropy — and Good Ventures, the private foundation run by Moskovitz and his wife, former journalist Cari Tuna.
