It's even more dishonorable for a company with a legal team to offer up terms in a contract that are explicitly illegal, and then use those illegal terms to conduct unfair and deceptive business practices in the labor market.

In fact, that scenario is so dishonorable that in some states you can ask the court for triple damages if the employer tries to enforce the noncompete



Your having honor is not conditional on others having honor.


There is no honor is dying on an ER stretcher.

For anyone in the US who needs regular healthcare beyond what's provided by Medicaid, the labor market is a war for (literal) survival. If the ownership class didn't want to return to an extremely adversarial relationship with labor, then they shouldn't have gutted the social safety net.

And no, I'm not going to show my hand in an imperfect information game... it would be stupid and dishonorable to my family to present with anything other than bourgeoisie professional-managerial class sensibilities.


Honor is what separates men from animals. Each of us gets to choose which we are.


Did you just insinuate I'm subhuman because I don't bend over when a megacorp insists that I sign an unenforceable noncompete?

Cooperating against a defect-bot is not an indication of honor.
