If it’s legal to eat babies in a country, does it make it morally ok to do it too while visiting?

- aurareturn 5mo agoThen Meta should exit that country.
- ornornor 5mo agoIf they had a moral compass. They’ve proven time and again they don’t.
- aurareturn 5mo agoMeta should exit the US too because the US does {x} that I don't agree with. But Meta doesn't have a moral compass.
- ornornor 5mo ago> But Meta doesn't have a moral compass. Exactly.
- davorak 5mo ago> Meta should exit the US too because the US does {x} that I don't agree with. This can be a real argument and conversation but we would need to know what {x} is and the causal chain that leads the world to be better after Meta leaves the US.
- aurareturn 5mo agoI agree it can be a real argument. The question is, who determines whether Meta should exit the US? Is it @ornornor? Hacker News? The Guardian? Europeans? Saudis? If it's any of the above, I think Meta would have needed to exit the US market a while ago. ;)
- yndoendo 5mo agoMeta / Facebook would happily sell advertising for baby eat restaurants and cook books. It is about profit not morality nor even being a good human being. Need to maximum profits for the share holders. Modern day large scale companies follow the Friedman doctrine, not human decency. [0]. They need that fix of infinite growth, which by doing so become cancerous to society. [0] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Friedman_doctrine https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Friedman_doctrine
