>How could any writer ever come out and say "I don't like having to think about what I write instead of putting everything in a meaningless soup setting" and not get executed in the street
There's a lot of things that are normal to say in a corporate setting that would get you shot in the street.

I'm guessing that you're either young or blue collar. Take it from someone with a long career in corporate offices, people betray their principles for salary all the fucking time.
It's literally considered noble in most of the anglo world.
