Why did the coup occur? Do the citizens of Niger support the coup?
I think I can distill many of the replies to this question in a few checks that may apply generally (exceptions abound, and i could just be wrong)
Are you intimately familiar (subject matter expert level) with the nasty outcomes of what you would be doing on a daily basis at this company? If yes its better it was YOU and not somebody else.
How much separation is there between what you do and the nasty outcomes? If you pull the trigger on a drone… I get thats unacceptable to some people.
Does not doing the activity make something else even more worse? (Frying pan vs. Fire dilemma)
Are you only doing this because there’s no other real choice? (Poverty)
