    It’s typical CEO speak to write entire articles for the New York Times that say essentially nothing, promise nothing, and only give meaningless platitudes.

    It isn’t unique to just CEOs, all the C-levels do this shit. I once had a Chief Manufacturing Officer mention “creating Value” four times in one paragraph, which was pointless.

    The kinder tone is just so it blows over. Then it remains the same, or at best crumbs are given for a while, to get worse again.
