      Any organisation that needs to remind themselves not to be evil is already intrinsically evil.

        Very overtly and loudly claiming a quality which should be self-evident in oneself, one’s company or one’s nation invariably means it’s not really there.

            “The Greatest Democracy In The World” - Lots of US politicians, including those activelly engaged in gerrymandering and passing vote supression laws.

            The dictum, supposedly from Einstein, about only the universe and human stupidity being infinite, needs to be ammended to include hypocrisy.

        Not arbitrary enough that they thought they could keep saying it. They ditched that about a decade ago.

        “It’s evil not to make as much money as possible”, Google founders. C-suite and board, probably.

      Actually, their slogan was “Don’t be evil.” But they revised it recently by adding a comma after the first word.
