“Sure we destroyed the planet as we knew it, but for a brief moment in time, we increased value for shareholders!”

Why did the coup occur? Do the citizens of Niger support the coup?

Oh I am thinking of them… how to murder shareholders in various unique ways… could be neat game idea too!

I think I can distill many of the replies to this question in a few checks that may apply generally (exceptions abound, and i could just be wrong)

1. Are you intimately familiar (subject matter expert level) with the nasty outcomes of what you would be doing on a daily basis at this company? If yes its better it was YOU and not somebody else.

2. How much separation is there between what you do and the nasty outcomes? If you pull the trigger on a drone… I get thats unacceptable to some people.

3. Does not doing the activity make something else even more worse? (Frying pan vs. Fire dilemma)

4. Are you only doing this because there’s no other real choice? (Poverty)

To do something equitably when reality is not equitable is disengineous and immoral

Lol the person who thinks one person makes the world go around.

Oh ok i am dumb. I misread the comment

“Authoritarian-left” hmmm…

If management weren’t lazy they would make work much much smoother so engineers can actually solve problems they are excited about instead of workaround shitty management policies and decisions.

Why is it dumb? Can you tell me how restricting rights of women to bodily autonomy is any of the state’s business or that of it’s conservative constituents? Why is there an effort to stamp out a section of society over made up fears?
