You just linked me to an article that had to make indirect links ("genetics" = "corporate culture") in order to actually make its point. You don't understand what 'textbook definition' means.

Confusing your opinion with the truth is actually incredibly juvenile. My opinion is not objective truth and neither is yours. Sorry to burst your bubble.

Corporate psychopaths are a thing, I agree with you on that.

What metaphor? Your sentence is pretty unclear.

Corporate personhood holds corporations to some of the same rights/responsibilities as individuals, but does not literally make them individuals. We give animals some rights and protections extended to humans, but that does not literally make them a human. When an animal pisses in your yard, we don't arrest it for…

Corporations are comprised of people, and as entities, are granted some of the same rights/responsibilities (which include ethical responsibilities IIRC?????) as individuals, but are not legally literal people.

Corporate personhood does not literally make a corporation a person. Please go reread the law and get up to speed.

lol lol lol @ being unable to articulate your disagreement in an intelligent way and resorting to 'internet tough guy who doesn't care' mode instead.

I'm seeing a consistent trend of people here who don't understand the definitions of things like "corporate personhood", "sociopath", and "fact".

Are you actually listening to what you're saying?

I'm sorry that you feel personally affronted that I'm not impressed by gross oversimplifications of complex subjects. Please excuse my offense of demanding a higher level of rhetoric than "CORPORATIONS ARE LITERALLY HITLER" and allow me to get out of your way.

You've missed the point. Try again.

No, it's not an extension of that law, that's anthropomorphizing. Literally the first result that comes up when you Google it is this:

Corporations aren't people, and even if they are considered "people" under the law, we don't literally treat them as individuals; they're still granted a special status outside of a LITERAL person. We don't throw an entire corporation in corporation jail when shit goes awry. Why do I even have to explain this.…

"We can and really should talk about these issues and criticize and ponder the ethical ramifications of all of this without resorting to half-baked, dramatized drivel like that."

That's not even an accurate description of what corporations do. You don't just open a business factory and money falls out unimpeded in a vacuum universe. Please try again when you can come back with a less stilted comparison. I'm not interested in shouting into the void.

I'm going to have to explain this about a hundred times, so here we go.

I agree with pretty much everything here, but this "corporations are sociopaths" shit is just fucking juvenile. We can and really should talk about these issues and criticize and ponder the ethical ramifications of all of this without resorting to half-baked, dramatized drivel like that. Corporations, like the…

Like the time Jez partook in the Amanda Bynes spectacle and then turned around with a THIS IS SO SAD, GET BETTER SOON MANDY~*~*~ <3 <3 <3 article when she was hospitalized.

Good catch, thank you!
