Has there ever been a large scale coporation that has been ethical. As sad as it is, it is to be expected at this point from them.

Ethics are antithetical to success in capitalism. Nowhere in the world had it been accomplished other then rare instances in state run industries.

No one ever got to the top without being evil.

In capitalism, yes. In socialism, is the other way around. The system makes sure to make evil people stay at the bottom.

Reminds me of a Soviet joke:

In a "socialist" system shit floats to the top just like in other ones.

Well, if they want to place their plant in an active conflict zone, that's on them whatever happens. I hope "whatever" happens, whatever that means.

glad I've never bought an Intel chip.. for multiple reasons but this is now the biggest reason

[–] ksynwa@lemmygrad.ml 8 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Is Intel one of those companies that have literal IOF or Mossad agents in high ranking positions?

[–] rottingleaf@lemmy.zip 2 points 10 months ago

Intel was engaged with Israel for more than half of its history.

Building a chip making factory is the modern equivalent of planting a flag.

'Business ethics' is an oxymoron
