One of my relatives’ (almost) entire family works for Lockheed and Raytheon; the youngest also graduated from Harvard and votes Biden. Another relative works for the FBI. One is an oil executive. A few of them are landlords. A few of them are trying to become landlords.

    They keep offering me jobs at Raytheon and I joke about thinking about it. In reality though I don’t think I can do anything for them without feeling like shit unless it’s like non clearance jobs plugging in routers at their office

        I’m not making weapons for anyone lol. I get that every job leads back to exploiting some child in a third world country, but I refuse to contribute directly to a product designed to only turn them into ash

        And to be honest, I don’t know how resistant I am to money brain. I imagine it’s inevitable that I start making decisions based on “how much money I can retain” and cope by sending a couple dollars to a socialist organization, if that is even legal lol. They’ll check all your contributions for background checks anyway.
