It's funny how things tend to get less black and white as more money is offered.

It’s funny how things tend to get less black and white if you actually look at pros and cons and listen to arguments. The fact that there actually are pros and cons to most things means they are not black and white.

Show me evil that cannot be justified with enough words, and I'll show you an uncreative salesperson.

Sounds so deep, yet means absolutely nothing. A great piece of marijuana ‘wisdom’.

To elaborate for you, I was saying that with enough words anything can be justified.
Ergo, in response to your previous post, one of two things is true. (1) There is no true evil in the world. Or (2) one should be suspicious of elaborate arguments, because they're often coming from people paid to defend profitable evil.
The counterargument to (2) would be "Well, 'good' has PR too." But I think it's objectively demonstrable that evil pays much better.
