Same to you I guess? The world is not a black and white place. Rigorous self-defense is not evil.

I chose to be vulnerable and honest knowing what kind of responses I would get and the guidelines of this board call for assuming good faith. It's discourse like yours that is inflaming and ruining our society.

I didn't even endorse any specific actions here, I'm just not meeting your moral threshold based on your interpretation of some pretty thinly-detailed comments that I made.

You also can't influence the game if you're not a player so opting out of working in the entire defense industry is probably against your interests.

make no mistake, it’s mindsets like yours that put us on the path we currently tread.

being honest and vulnerable about being a shitty person does not beget or earn you any kind of mutual respect. we are simply not the same.

And I know what it's like to live in a place without adequate law enforcement and/or military.

Personal insults and calling me mentally ill. Are you projecting?

Apparently willingness to work at Palantir or Anduril or other defense contractors makes me irredeemably evil. I'm sure you're real fun at parties.

Tbh, I'm glad though. I'm really great at what I do and have had a long and successful career. We need more hiring filters and I don't want coworkers with deeply skewed perspectives, inadequate objectivity and who cannot coexist with those of different world-views. Self-filtering is the cheapest and best kind.
