By your logic, you can admire all sorts of terrible people, like those who have committed murder, genocide, etc.
It is fine to judge people on a moral level if they are committing blatantly unethical acts. Being "successful" does not exclude one from being terrible.
- _cs2017_ 8y agoThe post I was responding to didn't call GS terrible; they called people who admire GS terrible. That's a lot more people than GS, and that is a very questionable claim. To your point, I think maybe 99.9% of people agree that murderers are terrible. The number of people who agree that Goldman Sachs is terrible is nowhere close to that. In fact, I suspect close to 25-50% actually admire them. I think it's wrong to call a quarter of the population "terrible" just because they don't agree with your definition of morality.
