Our new buddy Chris, in his own words, un-covers all the shitty corpospeak, all the bullshit about focus, values, alignment, performance and lets not forget - the so called "corporate social responsibility" etc. for what it really is - greed and maximising profits at the cost of people who build these companies.

The immorality of someone probably not working at all, who dares openly incite a disruption of the livelihoods of at least 12k working families should not be hidden from the public, least of all from the segment frequenting sites like HN.

It is important because for one high-profile like this, there are thousands of MBA-types at smaller companies who are learning by watching and who inevitably pass it down the line and spread the disease of these practices everywhere. We need to publically call these people out and ostracise their dangerous practices.
