I work for one of the largest financial companies. It's not us or the sector. There's a whole shadow sector behind the scenes doing this stuff run by billionaire funded think tanks who manipulated tech markets and leverage political and social manipulation through their connections. It's the world we live in but we didn't create it.
Shit education leads to pliable humans leads to social manipulation leads to desired outcomes from marketing efforts.

- crinkly 1y agoWell there's quite a few of them who are ideologically aligned.
- OhioMan2943 1y agoIs this in the same vein as those who are influencing the republican party or something a little more discreet. A hint never hurt
- Ygg2 1y agoI don't blame any particular sector in particularly but everyone is guilty in aggregate. And this has been going on for decades. At the end of the day it's what capitalism is best at maximizing efficiency, and externalizing the risks to someone else.
