business school isn't actually teaching you a science. It's teaching you an ideology.
It exists to produce the managerial class - enforcers of capital who normalize the idea that "profit" is the natural goal of human existence, rather than a parasitic extraction.
@floridamarx meanwhile the accounting students are laughing their ass off at that ridiculously simplistic definition.

@floridamarx profit. what is it good for?

@floridamarx marketing programs are equally trash.
They are about coercion, and feeding into insecurity, making insecurity, exploiting insecurity, and how to lie and sell nothing of real value. It’s rarely about creating better customer experience.
@floridamarx@mastodon.social @JoBlakely@mastodon.social its about creating a better customer experience when that's what gives you a better market share and/or perceived value
literally just manipulation

@EricLawton @floridamarx unless your business is a worker-owned cooperative, it's inherently unethical!

@floridamarx Profit = the waste heat in an economic activity.

economics teaches that it's an indicator of market inefficiency, demonstrating that the system we're supposed to have democratically chosen and managed for the benefit of all, is failing us.

True, but you HAVE to start somewhere.
Primary school teacher here - i guess i could teach my 3rd- graders like that and some would laugh at me. -

@masukomi @floridamarx And the engineering students are confused why anyone would think such a simple equation using only fixed-point rational number variables is useful to anybody. No matrices, quaternions, or multivectors anywhere. Not even one single-variable integration.

@jwcph @FantasticalEconomics @SrRochardBunson @floridamarx Unfortunately at least in the UK the media have almost all bought into this mindset. Their economics editors and business editors opine on every political/economic/business story from a starting point that corporate growth is desirable, government spending is wasteful and externalities that threaten our existence can be ignored. They will kill us all.
@pthane @jwcph @FantasticalEconomics @SrRochardBunson @floridamarx yep I couldn’t agree more, the topic comes up in climate circles a lot.
