Corporations want to be perceived as people, and they are protected by law as such. A person who knowingly manufactures weapons that are being used to commit a genocide is a psychopath. Psychopaths typically feign empathy to appear normal and blend in with society. Lockheed Martin supporting Pride is an example of such behavior.
Of course corporations are profit maximization engines, not people. By allowing them to act like people, we are normalizing psychopathy.
That ship sailed centuries ago.
Cool. Enjoy your dystopia.
