All Capitalists Are Bastards.
American Cops are bullies, they might beat you to death, but a capitalist… They won’t even leave a drop of blood after sucking your exploited husk dry.
Even fascists will remember who they kill as some monstrous victory of hatred in their fucked, genocidal heads, as the murder is the point, but capitalists are the opposite in temperament: cold, unfeeling reptiles. They’ll knowingly poison a town of children if it means more profit, pay the paltry fine, and never bother learning the name of the town they poisoned, just an irrelevant speedbump to glorious profit.
It is just business after all. And it’s bonkers what that phrase has successfully become an accepted excuse for, despite essentially having the same meaning as “just following orders.”
The cops are just the capitalist’s boots on the ground.
Don’t forget a major contributor to minority oppression, too. Police in Capitalistic society are multifaceted and multi-roled.

Cereal is expensive. This is bad advice even without considering the conflict of interest or the fact this man is a tool.
Fuck Kellogg’s but buying cereal in those bulk bags instead of in boxes literally makes cereal cost half as much. You pay out the ass for the privilege of a box.
In my experience, you save more buying cereal in bulk than most other foods, even ones more commonly bought in bulk.
Fun fact, as I wrote in another comment, it’s often the same cereal. Copying that comment here:
A roommate of mine who was an Econ major told me once that the knockoff bag cereals are often made by the same company that makes the name brand. That they’re the exact same product.
He said this is because there isn’t really much crossover between the market segments. People don’t comparison shop the bag cereal, they buy it because it’s cheaper and they wouldn’t buy the box cereal otherwise. And people who buy box cereal don’t really buy bag cereal. There’s no competition between the segments.
So if Kellogg’s or Post or General Mills makes the same cereal and throws it in a bag under a different brand name with a random title, they make more money than they would if they left that segment of the market to another player.
This is the same reason Costco and Sam’s Club brands have products that compare well with the brand names…they’re the exact same product, sold under a cheaper brand. Brew Dr can sell their kombucha under their brand at one price, but ALSO make kombucha and sell it under the Kirkland brand, and they’ll make money on both products.
Maybe he likes being a tool, tools repair things.
“What? Cereal only costs $20, right?”
“it’s one cereal Michael”
I don’t mean to defend him at all (in fact, I do eat cereal, but it’s local store brands and not Kellogg’s), but isn’t it normal for a person selling a product to tell people to buy its products?
At the same time, I agree it’s terrible advice he’s giving!!!
Gary Pilnick, you are a gigantic douche.
When I stopped eating cereal for breakfast, I lost weight and improved my blood sugar levels. If you want diabetes, go ahead and eat cereal.
Breakfast cereal is a marketing name, it’s really breakfast candy.
Exactly. When you realize that, it makes it a little easier to let it go.
As he should.
Why would anyone be surprised? A good CEO has the best interests of a company in mind.
No one is surprised. They’re just pointing out that a good CEO is a bad person. We don’t need that in our society. Only the rich need that.
We shouldn’t glorify antisocial professions.
Being a CEO of a publically traded company has become a firmly antisocial profession.
These people don’t work to benefit society, they work to benefit themselves exclusively by extracting as much as they can from society.
Then again, our culture seems to despise people in pro-social vocations like teachers and nurses, so maybe I’m wrong and we should keep trying to beat each other to death and fuck each other over to “win.” Maybe, if we do it well enough, we’ll be gone, which means the planet wins.
