These performances by CEOs before their employees to “calm” them reminds me of Jonestown or some other cult.
Everyone kind of knows the leaders are corrupt liars and false prophets. It’s all a scam. But they’ve invested so much of their lives and identities into the ideology, there’s not really any turning back. It’s like some “When Prophesy Fails” inflection point for the whole industry.

- drcode 9y ago> These performances by CEOs before their employees to “calm” them reminds me of Jonestown or some other cult. To be fair, the sentence that refers to "calming the employees" was from the New York Times and probably supposed to evoke that sort of feeling. The facts presented in the article are simply that Zuck had a meeting with employees to talk about current issues, which is pretty much standard practice for any company.
