And which benevolent corporations IS acceptable to work for?

no ethical consumption under capitalism etc etc but… there are companies that don’t make a profit by murdering middle eastern people

I think it's picking nits, economic destruction can be just as complete as military. People starve all over the world every day. Some people live in slavery to make the shirts Walmart sells, etc.

Maybe "work" is the actual problem. Maybe people shouldn't waste their entire lives serving murder profiteers. Maybe it's always been a garbage slaver system.
