Down with Evil Corporations!

Jul 3, 2012

A group of protesters protesting the evil corporate machines, organized against corporations, using social networking (by corporations), smart phones (by corporations) serviced by wireless carriers (that are corporations) wearing clothes (made by corporations), capturing it all with cameras (made by corporations) and getting there via cars, buses, bicycles, and shoes (made by corporations). Don't they deserve more from these greedy corporations? PS. Meeting afterwards at Starbucks.

So I can choose between two messages to take away from this illustration:
The first being that through all of the anti-corporation and big business protesting, what is really done by the activists? Businesses draw there power from the consumers and the protesters consume just as much as anyone else. So anything short of building a socialist-capitalist corporation that isn't "evil" nothing the protesters do will make any difference in the end, because at the end of the day the comportations are still making money from hats and camera's and everything else that is bought and sold these days.

The second message is less serious and it is that all of the corporate products displayed in the above image (and the ones not labeled) are themselves or also the company they came from are all not evil and therefore good corporations because the people protesting the evil corporations approve of everything shown in the image.
