They won't stop playing games which doesn't inspire confidence.
Sociopaths in control is a common dark pattern for big companies. Once entrenched generally impossible to get rid of them, any more than one easily deposes a tyrannical dictator who has acquired the power to silence and quash all internal dissent.
- campfireveteran 7y agoMaintaining corporate capture of the political and socio-economic structures requires management capture by talented jerks to continuously deliver for stockholders short-term results that forsake everything else. However, like most anarcho-capitalist utopian failures since time immemorial, large risks will not be mitigated for the least long-term harm to the public because unlimited greed and consequences of externalities "will solve everything in the markets." Maximizing profit apart from all else and lacking functional public protections that have been co-opted by the trough of corporate influence pedaling will inevitably lead to omnicidal and suicidal outcomes if nothing is done to intervene.
