People Are Sharing The Professions They Think Are Undeniably Evil, And Well, If The Shoe Fits…
According to the internet, some jobs are “undeniably evil.”
In one Reddit thread that poses the question, people shared their opinions on what the most immoral or corrupt jobs are, and I’m curious about what you think of these.
Ahead, I’ve rounded up 23 different answers.
1.“Tobacco lobbyist. They lied back in the day, saying there was no proof it was bad, they used their power to block regulation, and they keep lying to this day. They’ve killed an immense number of people all for a paycheck.”
–HemingtonWay
2.“Online gurus who lure in people to believe in get-rich-quick schemes.”
–Trollercoaster101
3.“MLM high ups.”

–No_Money_Guys

21.And finally, “I don’t think there’s a profession that’s inherently evil, at least not a legal one, but there are certainly professions that attract a lot of inherently evil people. Police, politicians, lawyers, stock brokers, and priests, just to name a few.”
