Usury

Just follow.

It is important to respect and maintain proper boundaries in the workplace. While it is important to be open to learning and understanding, it is not appropriate to question the boss of your boss. Doing so could be seen as disrespectful and could lead to disciplinary action. It is best to focus on your own job and tasks and leave questions for your direct supervisor to address. (ao)

AI Created: Artificial Intelligence talking about Usury.

Me: Usury makes you not questioning the boss of your boss.

ChatGPT (jan23):

It can create a sense of powerlessness and a lack of agency, making individuals less likely to question authority figures and more inclined to accept their circumstances without question. This can ultimately lead to a lack of critical thinking and an acceptance of the status quo, even if it is unjust or oppressive.

Me: Why is that?

ChatGPT:

Usury can create a power dynamic where those who have access to loans and credit hold more power and influence over those who do not. This can create a hierarchical structure where those in positions of power are not questioned or held accountable by those beneath them. Additionally, the pressure to repay loans and the fear of not being able to access credit in the future can make individuals less likely to question or challenge those in positions of power.
