- Mtinie 3y agoReally? That’s an interesting take and one that I hadn’t considered. I need to think about how I feel regarding the underlying premise but I can certainly see where you can make the argument. I agree that jumping to lynch mob reactions aren’t helpful. My original point—-which was likely not worded well—is that the humans which make up “society” need to reach a point where they can recognize that corporations make and follow-through on decisions because they are supported by sign-off from our fellow humans, not because of an abstract corporate mechanism. Thank you for the sidebar.
- lightedman 3y ago"'collectively deciding' is a lynch mob" Gee, what do you call a jury decision, then? A non-collective decision?
