So here’s just one article you can find by googling. You can also look up Unilever & their historical changes to reflect a more socially responsible direction. Lots of info out there. One can argue now that it was all BS but big investors saw it differently. online.hbs.edu/blog/post/co...

I was asking if you saw things differently, if you believed corporations were moving in a socially responsible direction. Exxon will tell you they're moving in a socially responsible direction, and I'm sure beloved google will provide a few (paid) articles to support that. Do you believe it?

And it’s a Harvard Business School article about corporations in general. Paid? By who and for why purpose. Did you even read it?

I did. It's an 2021 article about people's perceptions about CSR, not any actual CSR. "Paid" refers to a hypothetical article about Exxon. It's an extreme example, and so an article about social citizenship and care for the environment by a company like Exxon would most likely be paid.

Yes. Back when Ben & Jerry’s sold things were headed in a positive direction. I’m just saying it’s easy to criticize them now 25 years later. But obviously Unilever let them run the company the exact way they intended it for years so they had made the right decision.
