If the corporate brand isn't anti-fascist, then maybe the brand *is* fascism.

@inthehands

I think it’s fair to say that the corporation of every CEO that is stupid enough to say this should be escalated out of business

@inthehands @MikeElgan Wow ... this sounds like a globalized bag holder 2026 call for unity to me, idk. 👀 ✌️💙

@inthehands CityCast Twin Cities interviewed Kara Swisher (!) on this topic, and her big point was: it doesn't even really make sense for them to be weak, cowardly quislings here -- because they need to recruit and retain workers, and how the hell are you going to do that if the public perceives of your city as a war zone?

Even if you are a morally bankrupt sociopath focused only on profits, or shareholder value -- you want your city to have a good image so you can, you know, lure in workers for you to exploit...

@inthehands The thing is, that it is obvious what happens next. You can see it in Moscow, where billionaire oligarchs routinely "throw themselves out of windows" so that Putin can cash in. The rich have the items that the strong man will want to loot in the near future. The rich have the most reliance on the rule of law. Without the rule of law, the rich are the most vulnerable. Enabling authoritarian take over is a form of suicide for the rich. They are idiots and deserve what will inevitably come for them in the near future.

He is likely to attack Jewish and gay rich people first.

@inthehands If blame for the current situation could be apportioned by job title, I would guess that value for the statistical mode maps to the title of CEO.

@inthehands Is that the same Tim Cook in the viral video of Tim Cook repeatedly brownnosing Trump while eating dinner with him?

Unfortunately, I doubt it will affect Apple sales. The koolaid is just too strong.

@inthehands Statistically, some of the CEO's are actual fascists. But the ones that speak out a lot are all Ayn Randers: The 'takers' are in the streets, so they don't care.

@inthehands Milquetoast #broligarchs are deadweight for #democracy in the #UnitedStates.
