I have been opposed to working for defence as a general principle but the Pandemic has change my view.
My logic is that humans need to be safe to a certain degree (and I admit that the perception of safety is totally subjective)
I like safety from viral disease therefore I'm a fan of vaccines and masks.
I like personal safety in my day to day environment therefore I'm a fan of a well funded society with mental healthcare and appropriately funded social services and police.
I'm personally invested in the current system of sovereign countries/states and I believe that without controlling borders you can't really have a country. So I now believe that a well funded military is sadly still necessary. Talk about getting less left wing as you get older :-/
But I still 100% agree about not working for certain companies. Short term high interest consumer loans and any type of gambling are on my black list.
