With wall street, we knew that we were dealing with people of low character because they were open about it. “greed is good” was the motto
With silicon valley, the tech companies portrayed themselves as do-gooder “don’t be evil” types on a mission of contribution and some of us were naive enough to believe it.
Big difference.
I think we tend to hate those who betray our trust us more strongly than those who are honest about their intentions.
