Which is fine. But no one cares to humor the notion of a link between the lack of accountability for individuals within companies, when wrongdoing is apparent, with the way we scrub individuals from company interaction with the public? I don't think it's much of a stretch to say that the way we talk about companies influences how we regard and treat them.
- wayoutthere 7y agoWe do the same for all groups of people, not just companies. And the conventions aren't much different in other languages.
