alt Hacker NewsWhat do all the worst companies in the world have in common? Blackstone, Blackrock, Blackwater ..?
Always that Black prefix, like something out of a bad action movie.

Blackwater renames itself every so often to get away from the bad press, so its not in the name anymore.
I dont know what blackrock did to be evil. Seems like a pretty generic company that sells basically every type of stock.
Also Black Cube, I had a long list but seem to have misplaced it. Black seems to hint at secretive when you can say spy agency.
Well, where do you think they got their ideas from?
Because you have motivated reasoning to dislike these companies, even though Blackrock and Blackstone are bog standard financial services companies and a random naming scheme is easy to grab onto.
All the worst companies seem to all be LOTR themed.
Well, palantier dont have black in the name and is the same awful.
The scoundrels at Black & Decker
