Why are so many people ok with a world where you have no say in what your employer does, and they can do whatever they want to suit their bottom line?
Though I wonder how much of this is actually corpophilia and how much is people hiding behind it because they don’t want to say “I’m glad these people I disagree with got fired”.
Here are some threads to show what I’m talking about:

etc…
I assumed that once we accept we’re being extorted (work for us or fail to survive) it’s a short step to acknowledge we don’t get a say in what the company does.
Instead we acknowledge we’re occupied like Vichy Paris and spit in the boss’ coffee.
All the big companies were pro-torture and pro-containment and pro-overthrowing South American democracies and pro-great depression poverty (at least, pro-Hoover doing nothing about it and blaming it on public laziness). Go far enough back, and they’re pro-monarchy. The Heritage society is actively working for just that.
Will the annihilation of the Palestinian people be enough to get the global public to scream enough! and act to overthrow the ownership class? Will they, then tremble before communist revolution? I doubt it. Even as civil rights are rolled back in the US and five-eyes nations, we carry on.
Even as industry pollutes the climate until it is uninhabitable, we carry on…
…Until the hour we don’t. But I don’t know when that will be, whether in days or decades.
