You're assuming that I think baby-killers shouldn't be working in the defense industry or that I think there shouldn't be a defense industry or something.

No, I want people that aren't baby-killers to avoid it. That's all. The defense industry is important and needs staff, staff that are OK with babies being killed.

It's starting to sound like you're a baby-killing defense industry employee, and if you are I want you to understand that I don't hate you. I just dislike drone strikes against children and hospitals.

Couldn’t be further from the truth. No defense, no finance is the promise I made to myself when I started my career.

My point is that you are insulting the intelligence of people both in and out of the field with toxic, pithy remarks like that. It serves no purpose but to agitate.
