Do people no longer have the political right to disagree about what falls under the precept of morality though?
How immoral can a corporate officer be before they become ineligible for the position?
I mean, you mentioned racist CEOs, but what about CEOs who oppose affirmative action without actually changing their corporate policies regarding it? You ask one person and you'll hear that banning affirmative action is racist, ask another person and they'll tell you it's just enforcing fairness throughout.
Were that it was so easy to simply reduce things in a tidy bundle by slotting them in the "morals" bucket...
- MetaCosm 13y agoThe trick is public perception of it. Once the public considers an issue no longer political, and rapidly coalesces behind a point of view... if you are on the wrong side of the point of view, expect to suffer repercussions. I would put forth that this issue has passed out of "political issue" because of its obvious trajectory.
