is there a name for the phenomenon where you can crudely gauge how evil a big corporation is by how many television ads they air to promote charity or community work they do?
"we donated $10M to a food bank" = please forget our weird accounting scandal

"so we're giving $20M to HBCU" = oops sorry our CEO used the n-word

"that's why we invest more than anyone else in environmental stewardship" = lmao our oil rig exploded
yes, exactly. i assume any corporation sponsoring a PBS show must have really fucked up https://twitter.com/TheTimFurey/status/1301720141856747522
seeing one of those was what inspired this thread! every time i see a bunch of wagon wheel adorned people distributing toys for tots or whatever it makes me think of that time they got caught committing massive banking fraud! https://twitter.com/beeswift/status/1301719491655725057
