Maybe it’s time to get better at researching companies before major decisions. Do you have a system in place for doing background research on future large purchases?

That shame is no use unless it helps you update your behavior. Shame about a “one-off” decision in the past will continue to nag you until you figure out how to avoid the same mistake in the future.

So how can you avoid realizing ten years out that some big purchase you made supported someone you disagree with? How can you do it in advance?

Also actual Nazis were worse than the “nazis” everyone’s worried about now.

Not as big a deal as virtue signaling to that particular British scientist, naturally, but it’s quite important to the other ones I’m sure.
