Why aren’t we seeing this type of energy towards politicians? They’re the ones making the laws that companies exploit.

Because in fine, it's the companies and lobbies that bribe them. You can have ethical politicians, but there are hardly any ethical CEOs/board members.

I think the rates of ethical people across the two are the same. Just have to relate the politicians to the same ranking as a CEO/board member.

You think politicians are the ones who write the laws? You wouldn't happen to be a CEO would you? If so, I do believe you yearn for the Sea...

That’s the silliest thing I’ve heard in a while

I'm not hearing a no. Do you hear the waves? They call to you!

You’re telling me to kill myself? And you’re getting upvotes? Lemmy has changed. Then again, Lemmy has always had a hard-on for politicians. Enjoy the circlejerk.
