It's categorical rejection. Instead of opening up that venue and having to navigate the murky waters of cognitive dissonance and moral obligations against lucrative opportunity, you simply don't open the door. You stick to a client base that is meaningful (relatively so) but not highly impactful and potentially dangerous down the road.

- Phlarp 13y agoThis is an excellent basic strategy. I've applied it to my own work; obviously avoiding government or defense contracting work is a good first step, cutting out Wall St. proper and stock/bond/asset trading is likely a prime second candidate. To call this position as "non-participation" or "categorical rejection" is intellectually dishonest, and to say this stance is some kind of blanket protection from future ethical considerations is borderline trolling.
