Do you find it risible when I say the name...

The Risible Reality

Corporate mandates are supposed to serve the public good. Once upon a time, they did. But now, they often serve only shareholders. This shift is not just a minor hiccup; it’s a risible reality.

The Trusty Beginnings

Originally, companies aimed to benefit everyone. They created jobs, improved communities, and made life better. The public trusted them. They were the heroes of the economic world.

Evidence of Change

Fast forward to today. Many companies focus on profits. They prioritize shareholders over the public. This isn’t just a conspiracy theory. It’s evident in the widening gap between executive pay and worker wages. It’s seen in the environmental corners cut for profit.

Critics, Hold Your Horses

Some might argue that companies must prioritize profits to survive. Sure, profits are important. But when profits come at the expense of the public good, it’s time to rethink priorities.

What Can We Do?

We can demand change. Support businesses that prioritize people over profits. Advocate for policies that hold companies accountable.

Conclusion: A Call for Balance

The risible reality doesn’t have to be our future. We can return to a time when corporate mandates truly served the public good. It’s time to balance the scales. Let’s make companies heroes again.

«El primer punto sobre el cual quiero llamar la atención es que, fuera de lo propiamente humano, no existe nada cómico. Podrá un paisaje ser hermoso, sublime, insignificante o feo, pero nunca será ridículo. Cuando reímos a la vista de un animal, es porque hemos sorprendido en él una actitud o una expresión humana. Un sombrero nos hace reír, por la forma que los hombres le dieron, por el capricho humano en que se moldeó, y no porque el fieltro o la paja de que se compone susciten por sí mismos nuestra risa. No entiendo cómo un hecho tan importante dentro de su sencillez, no haya llamado mayormente la atención de los filósofos. Muchos definieron al hombre “un animal que ríe”. Habrían debido definirle también como un animal que mueve a risa, porque cuando algún otro animal o cualquier cosa inanimada motiva la risa, es en todos los casos por su parecido con el hombre, por la huella dejada por el hombre o por el uso hecho por el hombre».

Henri Bergson: Introducción a la metafísica. La risa. Editorial Porrúa, S. A., págs. 49-50.  México, 1986

For real, let people ship what they want, even incest (which Sylki's NOT). And if you don't like said ship, well just go away and don't assault and slander people you don't know and who've done nothing wrong.

Who cares? It's not even real. It's FICTION.

It's ALL FICTION.

Canon or Fanon, It's all fiction.

Shipping is harmless, cyber bullying is NOT!
