Sorry I engineered a system that extracts wealth from the poorest and filters it to the wealthiest in a self-reinforcing cycle to emiserate everyone outside my peer group.
Oops-i-doodle! My bad.
A lot of people, not just CEOs, should apologize more for their screw-ups. CEOs obviously should too, but we have a real problem in this world where people think asking for forgiveness is showing weakness.
That would be admitting to a wrongdoing, and would get them into trouble. But also, they don’t see it as wrong, they see it as “business”
Which is another problem that is not just a CEO problem (although it is a major CEO problem)- people thinking it’s okay to regularly do bad things because they’re doing them for a good reason.
The ends always justify the means, if the end is to enrich yourself.
So we should be stopping them.
If you mean by vigilantism, that’s a good way to get innocent people murdered. Unless you know some foolproof way for every random person out there who decides to take the law into their own hands to only kill the guilty. Good luck with that considering the history of “internet sleuths.”
I mean, it’s easy to find the c-suite and board of directors of any company.
It’s also easy to mistake one person for another. It’s happened over and over and over again. People with the same name as someone else get harassed because they get doxxed and the harassers don’t bother checking.
You must know this. How many times have we seen it played out now?

This poor guy killed himself over it: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Suicide_of_Sunil_Tripathi
And now we’ve added assassination into the mix.
Do you really think this is going to end without any innocent blood spilled?
Edit: It’s also not hard to convince a bunch of people some random person is an evil CEO just by doxxing them. Like I said, people don’t bother checking.
lol. These people are recognizable. You need to go to a lot of effort to locate and plan that. It’s highly unlikely anyone would “mistake” them for someone else. That’s like someone saying “I thought I was aiming at Elon Musk, at his house, but it turns out he has a doppelgänger who lives next door!”
Really unlikely. Did you used to be a fed?
Sorry
Canada thanks you for your service.
This can unfortunately be due to poor work culture a lot, where anyone admitting fault is saddled with all the blame and consequences. A great way to start correcting that is to lead by example from the top, though. Executives can’t be surprised if this culture develops if they’re always sidestepping accountability.
So they don’t get shot?
Deny, defend, depose.
All of them
Oh! We’re soooo sorry
Careful or the lemmy.world admins might ban you!
Seppuku?
Woodchipper.
Because if they admit a mistake, his will they get the next job with all those billionaire CEOs out there who have never made a mistake? /s
