So they acted shitty and even illegally, and now they’re mad they’re being called out on that. Can someone make this make sense to me?

Corporations themselves, if viewed as a human actor, as well as the humans that actually run them at the higher levels, are psychopathic and sociopathic.

They do not have a sense of morality beyond, 'whatever benefits me is good, whatever harms me is evil.'

They cannot be trusted, they are extremely manipulative and narcissistic, they think nothing of causing immense harm to others if it may overall benefit them even slightly.

The bigger the corporation, the more perfectly it and its executives and board members act like 'dark triad' people.

They are not capable of remorse, they exceed at gaslighting, they are exceptional liars, and they are willing to sacrifice anything to fulfill their desires.

This is not hyperbole, this is empirically verified fact.

You might be able to find this on youtube or tubi or the high seas, as a primer.

Simple: corporations have all the rights of people but none of the responsibility to not be cartoonishly evil and anyone who implies otherwise is a big meanie!
