"Would you like your evil done in the traditional overt bombs-dropped-on-children fashion, or the new we'll-sell-your-entire-life-to-the-highest-bidder-while-feeding-you-non-stop-lies-to-establish-a-fascist-regime style, sir?"

This guy: Bomb some kids, at least it's a spectacle.

(Edit for clarification: I think both are bad, and one has a strong causal relationship with the other but I am not sure I would pick Raytheon personally. It's a bit too overtly evil for my tastes)

I refuse to believe that tweet is real on principal, but it's just tone deaf enough to have me question whether this might have actually been shat out by a corporate marketing team as part of some greenwashing effort.

If this is someone memeing however: Kudos, this one is very convincing despite being wildly ridiculous.

It is satire, but they have a tweet on a environmentally friendly radar searchable on Google and a https://rtx.com/our-responsibility/sustainable-operations page so even if fake, it's not that far-fetched
