I never worked directly for them. I was a contractor.

If all the people of conscience quit, they are left with a workforce without a conscience, which I guess is pretty much what they have now, at least in certain areas.

Yes that frees the people with a conscience to work on endeavours that challenge these corrupt institutions.

That’s a good thing.

It isn’t really a radical or counterintuitive thing to say ‘don’t do evil work for evil people.’

People who give mealy mouth excuses like ‘I was just following orders’ or ‘I was just a contractor’ are part of the problem.
