This meme needs to stop. It is pure legitimacy-washing and I can’t believe the HN crowd falls for it.
It’s like Exxon donating a pittance to an environmental protection fund and calling it even.
I wish we would stop giving them credit for “helping” when they’re the ones causing and profiting from the damage in the first place.
