Usually when companies do this it bothers me because it is tone deaf pandering. But with Raytheon I don't feel the same way because I think these lunatics actually believe this message. They were sponsoring gay pride parades in the late 00s, way before it was cool to be gay. There is something about an unironic murder cult of gay environmentalist engineers that fascinates me.

If you’re an engineer working for the military industrial complex they don’t really care who you are so long as your soul has that price tag. And I know a decent portion of the people doing it feel guilty and try to mentally minimize the damage it does.

Why do communities exist if people are going to dump everything in one place and are rewarded for doing so?
12 0 ReplyIt's a meme insofar as the definition of
an element of a culture or system of behavior passed from one individual to another by imitation or other nongenetic means.
Information is one of the elements. This is information and it is being passed around by non genetic means.

9 0 Reply`Frank, the new CEO had to answer to the board.
The board was getting anxious, and the shareholders were
on a bed, legs in air, ass-cheeks open wide
They were about to get fucked like it was their first time.
When one makes 20 million, ten thousand people lose.
What keeps that one from swallowing a shotgun?
Dan, the company man, felt loyalty to the corp.
After 16 years of service, and a family to support
He actually started to believe
the weaponry and chemicals were for national defense.
'Cause Danny had a mortgage, and a boss to answer to.
The guilty don't feel guilty, they learn not to.
Helen is living in her car, trying to feed her kids.
She got laid off at work, and her house was repossessed.
It's hard to think clearly when it's 38 degrees.
Desperate people have been known to render desperate deeds.
But when she shot that family and moved into their home,
The paper read she suffered from dementia.`
