When scammers hide behind minions, should the minions be spared?
 
General question I've been pondering.

I know in adult it is pretty common for people to hide behind fake nicks and hire minions to carry out their dirty work, affiliate managers etc.

Then when shit hits the fan the minions are like "I am just an employee, I am not responsible bla bla bla"

Now for myself I cannot find it in my heart to spare these minions from my contempt and any plans for retribution (however petty) I may have. I feel like if they wear the enemy's uniform they are gonna be under fire from me.

What do you guys think? I am not talking about any company or program in particular right now, actually something happened this weekend outside of adult, and when I became angry at a hired minion who was in fact ripping me off in several ways my friends and associates were critical of my inclination to "shoot the messenger" as they put it.

Speaking for myself, I wouldn't work for someone whose ideals I don't agree with. I am not talking about not liking your boss or thinking the company sucks for making you work on Columbus day, but really not agreeing with their morals.

If you are a minion and you do that you are just as libel. I know several people whom I respect so much less for the people they work for or have partnered with. :2 cents:

Hitler's minions weren't spared. "Unless they were useful to the US that is"
So I say it's a precident.

Mainstream is the same as adult in that regard. You just have more players in the mix.

Minions, fall guys, and strawman's are going to continue to exist. How much they really know about "the grand plan" is a whole different story. I've found most of the time they know there is 'something' going on. But they do not bother to follow the rabbit hole, as they do not want to upset the apple cart (their job/paycheck).
