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.
Yes.
We live in brutal Capitalism, and instead of paying for it, we should brutally use it. The problem isn’t some idiot in power giving you money. Take the money! Take the money! But take it without moralistic feelings of guilt. The next day you kill him, and if he says “But I gave you money,” tell him, “You idiot, why did you give me the money?” Here there’s no room for moralism. Be brutal. If we live in Capitalism, then we live in Capitalism. Take the money wherever you can without any feeling of responsibility.
