Because DestroyBaghdad Inc. pays well and offers lovely working conditions. Judging the legality of its business actions is a job for the state, not for me.

- empath75 7y agoThat’s how I almost talked myself into working for Palintir.
- Aeolun 7y agoJust the name indicates perfectly well what you are going to be working on. But really, it seems fairly benign compared to some of the other options.
- regularfry 7y agoIt's also a trailing indicator.

- krageon 7y agoAre you being sarcastic or is this a genuine belief that you hold? I honestly can't tell.
- lagadu 7y agoAs distasteful as it may sound, it is. Maybe you can accuse of not having morals but if a company's doing something so evil that I may object to it, the odds are that what they're doing is illegal in the first place so all I'd have to do is whistleblow confidentially and the problem sorts itself out. On the other hand if they're doing something very evil but legal, then the problem lies with the lack of regulation of it, as it's virtually guaranteed that some other company is also doing that so quitting a job over it would be ineffective, in that scenario I object by voting towards whichever party proposes the regulation I deem necessary.
- Retra 7y agoAny behavior which is not illegal is tacitly acceptable. That's pretty much the basic tenant of a liberal society.
