To the contrary. It's exactly on point. We don't see anyone saying "school industry is fucked" just because some teachers are abusing the students or "airline industry is fucked" because pilots pick up stewardesses.
I find it really repulsive how it's somehow okay in our industry to throw blanket accusations and demand collective responsibility.
This is a huge weakness of our environment. Something that actually makes me consider leaving the industry from time to time.
