    I imagine it’s much the same as working for a big oil firm at this point.

      There’s an old ethnography about people working at one of the big finance companies right before the 2007 disaster. The anthropologist asked a lot of them what they thought about their work and a lot of them were like “Well, it’s a disaster and it’s destroying society and it’s all going to come crashing down soon but Idk what else to do”.
