Honestly, meh, especially for white collar professes like ours or this one. First of all, generally we are not talking about people who have no other choice but do something unethical. We are talking about people who have choices and are choosing either somewhat higher salary or inertia.

And second, I do know multiple people who made the choice of not getting employment somewhere unethical. It is not some kind of rare decision making. These people have children and parents that depends on them.

It is not some great unusual privilege to walk away from job like this you want to frame this as. It is where quite a lot of technicians are. You could make that argument about factory near some trailer park or poor area, but not really about us.

That's the entire point. We're privileged. My god. My example was literally a mom in a factory with starving children who began building bombs instead of cars.
