“Gee, why would these corporations be into fascism? I’ve never read a book before.”

    What have you achieved by reading books? Seems like nothing. Someone out here is genuinely curious and you have to resort to cheap insults. May be learn some etiquette.

    😛 It’s not that that’s confusing me, I think I’m just surprised at the nakedness. Like, yeah, big business supports fascism, but often still have a pretense. Like, oh I’m investing in the industry, and the industry produces tanks, and there happens to be a conflict on the horizon, and you can pretend it’s just an investment in business. Or whatever. But this feels like a dude, who isn’t in government or anything, put up a sign that says “I’m a prick”, and then a bunch of companies fell over themselves to give him money for… nothing in return. It’s like the business equivalent of sending all your money to a megachurch televangelist or something! Again, if I were on the board of one of those companies, or a shareholder in it, I might be like “wait, why did we send this guy 30 million dollars? Even if I’m pro fascism… what does that money… get us? What did we spend it on?”
