    Yeah, but not all administrative work is for Nazi Germany, that’s his point. Unicef has a website, not sure I could confidently call their engineers Nazis.

      I think you misunderstood. I didn’t suggest all administrators were Nazis.

      I was saying that administrators existed in the Nazi regime, and they are not excused simply because they never personally pulled a trigger.

      My point was about people working in the tech industry, not sure why you’re bringing up UNICEF

        Their point is it’s a job title and working for the worst offenders in big tech isn’t entailed in that. You can work in tech by writing surveillance software for Palantir or you can work in tech by being the website admin for UNICEF. Both are tech workers, but only one is part of the problem.

            And some steel workers wild tanks, some auto workers are contracted for government vehicles, email providers facilitate global pedophile rings.

            It’s weird to make the claim in general because… yeah, every job might have people doing evil things in some section of the industry. Tearing down unions only supports the rich and the evil
