Have I mentioned there's a great book out that highlights the specific emotional talking points they use humor and fact-based counterpoints to their lame arguments. It's called Corporate BULLSH*T by @joanwalsh.bsky.social Donald Cohen and Nick Hanauer. Worth a read! https://bookshop.org/p/books/it-s-never-our-fault-and-other-shameless-excuses-a-compendium-of-corporate-lies-that-protect-profits-and-thwart-progress-donald-cohen/18096544
