Fanta was created so coke could sell soda in nazi Germany around a trade embargo. IBM sold the machines that were used to track and tabulate holocaust victims. Henry Ford inspired Hitler. Big business has always collaborated with fascism. Today's businesses are bastards who are no different.

It cracked me up that Coke shamelessly brought back the Klassik flavour in 2015 to mark its 75th anniversary.. 🤦♀️

Mexicans knew that Bayer infiltrated US & Canada regulatory authorities & are poisoning humans, soil, insects, amphibians, birds, animals…

Wonder how much longer they can hold off Trump?
Trudeau & Harper approved Bayer infiltrating Canada’s Pest Management Reg. Authority.
Now PMRA approves poisoning Canadians & enviro.
capitalism doesn't care about morals.
So when people ask something fucking stupid like "Don't businesses deserve to make money?" the answer is "No" - because their Social Darwinist shit says "Nobody is owed anything"
There are also the US eugenicists who pushed sterilization laws in the US and then helped the Nazis write their forced sterilization laws.
and Secretary of State Blinken has financial stakes in the Israeli AI firms who predict concentrations of Palestinian children to bomb them.
(My grandma was sent to a work farm, as was her mother.)
Now my kids will never want to drink their favorite soda. I mean RFK Jr was probably going to ban it anyway.
P.S. I apologize for the GIF if you find it offensive. All I have left is humor. Also, who knew there were so many Fanta GIFs?
As in: don't buy Tesla. If you have to use X or Meta, use an ad-blocker, so they don't make money from your engagement.
And ffs, please: Unless you have to, don't use Amazon to buy stuff.
Back then they were willing to turn the military against the government, and not a single Oligarch even set foot in a courtroom.
They're bastards, and they deserve what they get this time around.

And, I know it os "untelated", but too few know how the Roosevelt's got their wealth. It was "the China trade", aka running opium.
Slavery, war & drugs are at the root of all US plutocracy.
9 - Power of corporations protected
Although the personal life of ordinary citizens was under strict control, the ability of large corporations to operate in relative freedom was not compromised.
Systems of capital have always used violence. Compare this to media shrieking about society ending when someone throws a brick at a protest
Like with Web3. Nip it in the bud before it could take root.
It was another scam pitched by Silicon Valley as a way to "help artists" when it was first pitched.
The "Marketplace of ideas", which Twitter would be the testing ground. People caught on to the scam pretty quick.

The IOC could have taken the 1936 Olympics away from Berlin, but their dream of “pure” amateur sport was more important to them.

am i misremembering that story?
Perfect and 100% relevant, especially right now as people push their heads further and further into the sand (or up certain fascist wannabe's arseholes).
As a Brit with limited interest in history & poor knowledge of past US Presidents, Mr Wallace is a new discovery.
Just spent a fruitful few minutes on his Wikipedia page to get the headlines.
The gulf in class between him and, for example, the incoming VP is greater than you would wish for.

Something bad about Bluesky will probably come out & we'll play musical chairs with social media all over again
Are you thinking of Mastadon?
This one accuses the author of exaggerating Pervitin’s use in Nazi Germany and blaming Hitler’s decisions on drugs rather than his own attitudes. https://www.theguardian.com/books/2016/nov/16/blitzed-drugs-in-nazi-germany-by-norman-ohler-review
Many allied governments wanted to prosecute Ford & GM as nazi collaborators & have their boards of directors at Nuremberg trials

Later he wrote Grant letters praising his work where he referred to it as his bible.
Now, if you don't support genocide you're put on the naughty list.
Peter FUCKING Thiels palantir
Armani was founded in 1975 - which uniforms exactely?
Give James May's Cars of the People a watch. First episode is where I learned THAT factoid...
Company did come directly out of the Nazi labor department. Labor department was trying to encourage people to take vacations. Rested worker is happy and productive worker, they felt.
:Checks:
Turns out they didn't "Take Back Control" Max Keith handed over all for profits from Fanta and the recipe willingly having safeguarded the company's property from being taken over by the Nazis
