alt Hacker News> Ethically, if you do not agree with the company you work at, the optimal course of action if you can stomach it is to stay and do a bad job rather than get replaced by someone who might do a good job.
What...? In what way is it anything other than highly unethical to sabotage someone you have a contract with, because you disagree with them?

Plenty of historical examples of work environments where sabotage would have been the most ethical thing to do (and often you will only know in hindsight). But yeah in most circumstances a simple disagreement doesn’t warrant the psychological cost of such sabotage.

Ethics is more complicated than that. Is it unethical to sabotage your employer if your employed is themselves acting unethically?
You’ve seen Schindler’s List, right?
Have we gotten so lost that “working against your enemies” is no longer something we aspire to do?
