They used to be in Switzerland for the tax structure anyways. The move back to Sweden and the lax regulation was designed to repatriate the business.
> species threatening problems
The human species is facing a threatening problem? I think I know the problems you're talking about, but it seems to me, they're mostly threatening to the current social and economic order, and not to the actual species.
It's marketed as the latter by the former. It's a clever strategy. It has reformed the conversation in the light most favorable to their interests and not yours.

It could be worse. It could be private equity. This company at least produces _something_, and to the extent there are species threatening problems, they are spending a fair portion of their money there.
- FarMcKon 2y ago"It Could Be Worse" is the absolute worst apologist argument, for anything. Please never excuse something bad, because you can imagine, or see somewhere else something even worse.
- akira2501 2y agoIt's not apologia. It's pointing out that this "planet ending doom and gloom" meme driven attitude is not well aligned to the problem being discussed. I would personally attempt to avoid using language that people could interpret as moral bullying.
