Throwaway for anonymity reasons.

I learned to code. I am good enough to get a job at a Google/Amazon/Facebook. Should I do it? I feel like it would be working for the devil, but I also feel like almost every job is like that. $200k/yr sounds pretty nice.

All of us have to make compromises to survive in this awful world.

That being said, if I had a decent job right now, I would probably be much more of a lib than I already am. Material circumstances make us who we are.

On the other hand, the things you learn at Google might be of assistance to the revolution in the future.

If it were me, I would almost certainly go for it, while also doing my best to undermine capitalism as often as possible.
