what is the furthest you'd go immorally for a fresh salary? Hell I'd work for Palantir for a nice $250k or be a manager at Evil Corporation Inc if I got a crisp $300k.

or are you a goody two shoes who will stand by your principles even if it means pain!

I would never take a job at Palantir, United Healthcare, Nestle, Lockheed martin DeBeers. I don't give a fuck if they offered me million, but I'm Neurodivergent with a strong sense of justice while lacking the mental ability to act on it.

I'd take the job, but I'd be shit at it and basically just goof off all day

Haha it’s weaponized incompetence. I would take a job at Palantir to sabotage it - especially if they paid me a lot

Take it, suck just enough at the job to not get fired, use the money to lobby against evil policies/fund grassroots groups that support 'changing' the current politicians out
