Finance people are catastrophically convinced their religious belief system reflects reality as if it was a science when the industry is clearly a belief system constantly searching for evidence that justifies its existence in order to keep itself from becoming rejected by the rest of society because it is bullshit.

Finance people don't know what the fuck they are talking about and it is extremely dangerous that we all collectively seem to pretend they do.

I said they are not my favourite people which kind of covers everything you are saying. You can mention them without having to preface everything wrong with them (and I wrote that sentence explicitly to not come across like I’m defending them and having answer these types of posts… but here we are).

I said it’s how they are coping with uncertainty. That’s all. Nothing more.
