I simply cannot understand how people are willingly working at a place like Meta.

The same reason people are willing to napalm brown kids for Uncle Sam, a chance at a better life, price be damned. People will find a way to justify their life choices one way or another but it really comes down to wanting food and shelter. Yes, I realize that's an extreme example but I hope you understand the point i'm trying to make. We live in a fucked up world that pits us against each other. When we fight each other, we're too busy to fight our oppressors.
