Minion Oppenheimer is the film we deserved
Show me an alpha male and I'll show you a monkey
"and now I've ticked off everything on Schindler's list"
Quite apart from anything, the minions are idiots! They are not in a position to make judgments about consequentialism and deontology, they like karaoke and silly machines. They would have worked for Barnes Wallis

Somewhere Bismarck is looking down in confusion as Germany projects power by sending 4,000 pensioners, 12 buffet stations and a TUI loyalty program through the Strait of Hormuz
It is the "squishy liberal acting how he thinks a hard nosed capitalist boss would be" effect, but with a lawyer trying to act with the standard of honesty he believes of politicians
Thinking about it lots of people never learn this lesson. Was always amazed how easy my first boss at the Bank of England found it to absolutely stitch people up (with me, the writer of the minutes, as his little yellow guy in the blue dungarees)
