Team is jeet hell. Specifically, tech lead is big jeet and UI lead is lil jeet. Everything is as you'd expect (ad-hoc meetings you must join, requirements change constantly, incomprehensible instructions, micro-managing), and because of that we're all in a bad mood. Big jeet schedules a meeting called "check in" with no details, includes about 10 of us, specifically UI devs. We join and he says this is an "open forum" to discuss concerns, because he has heard morale is low. A few people speak up, saying that the PR comments are hard to understand, that instructions are given too late, once you've already implemented something in a way apparently contrary to what lil jeet wants. Big jeet listens, but then gives a story which it seems he'd planned in advance to tell: he says the Proof of Concept for this project failed a few years ago due to everyone "doing their own thing." The reason why lil jeet does things in the stupid way he does is because we need to "make sure that doesn't happen again." Whenever someone tries to disagree with big jeet, to say that his history lesson regarding the failed PoC doesn't mean that lil jeet's idiocy is justified, he interrupts and insists he is an "open person" but we can't let that happen again. He defers to how he has known lil jeet for a long time, and how lil jeet has a good track record. Basically, he scheduled this meeting to let us air grievances, and then for him to tell us "no, nothing will change. Just do what lil jeet says."

If India were nuked, what would be lost? Serious question
