The Rise of the Megalothymiamanical Memories Pizza Truthers
[PJ Media] In the old days, the left railed against the eeeevils of Big Business, whether it was Upton Sinclair versus the meatpackers, or demonizing the men who built America's network of railroads with the folk Marxist twang of "Robber Barons." But these days, as we've seen in the past few weeks with Starbucks' Howard Schultz and Apple's Tim Cook, American business is almost totally onboard with the left's social agenda. Comcast's MSNBC channel and Viacom's Daily Show and all three of the broadcast network's news programs are effectively daily in-kind contributions to the Democrat Party.
Don't forget 'We take SNAP' Walmart.
But individual small businesses are a lot more random in their thinking, which is why the left hates them, unless they obediently conform to the Gleichschaltung. Millionaire filmmaker Michael Moore, who poses as a big lovable stubbly-faced friend of the working man, gave the game away in 2002:
You know in my town the small businesses that everyone wanted to protect? They were the people that supported all the right-wing groups. They were the Republicans in the town, they were in the Kiwanas, the Chamber of Commerce -- people that kept the town all white. The small hardware salesman, the small clothing store salespersons, Jesse the Barber who signed his name three different times on three different petitions to recall me from the school board. F**k all these small businesses -- f**k 'em all! Bring in the chains. The small businesspeople are the rednecks that run the town and suppress the people. F**k 'em all. That's how I feel.
"These people" are simply not team-players.
