This is the result of the clash between naïve idealism and the realities of revenue (and maybe some realpolitik). Undermining company revenue, usually isn't met with enthusiasm.
- TaylorAlexander 4y agoI don’t know if it’s fair to call it naïve idealism. There’s lots of reasons to get frustrated working at google, and when you see that they’re participating in an apartheid system it’s worth protesting and trying to get them to change, even if you don’t believe chances of success are high. You can be realistic (rather than naïve) and still feel it is worthwhile to protest, and to quit if that fails. The publicity of the protest also helps other people avoid the mistake of working for a company that supports or is indifferent to apartheid.
