  Please watch this video, and think about everything.

  Don’t do anything stupid and treasure your own life. Thinking has to come first, or there will be regrets later.

    What does that have to do with slavery/slave like conditions and the likely increase in resentment towards CEOs and the likely increase in violence towards them?

      Who said “have to?”

      Can.

      We can just acquiesce. That’s always an option.

      As for coercion, it’s a spectrum. Killing the bags of bones is only one small slice of that spectrum.

      Regardless. Conflicts of interests exist. Coercion exists. We can just try to sleep through it all and hope for the best hopium. Or we can do the adult thing. Admit reality. Prosecute our interests vigorously and sophisticatedly.
