re: #61 Dark_Falcon

I understand all those points and agree. It was outside of the original point that the commercial showed a surprising both a lack of corporate control over a message - using opposing lyrics to make a point (a huge fuckup that people will be talking about and heads will roll) - shown to a huge audience AND their basic backwards/clueless thinking about what prosperity means to the their mgmt vs their own wage workers and consumers.

Walmart didn’t run a commercial describing wage disparity declining, increasing cost of transportation, China’s increasing energy costs, or while they didn’t care before the rule of law and safety and environmental problems were worse. They ran a commercial like they were doing the wage- earners a favor when they have been - for a long time - the bad actor in a Communist Manifesto play of later-stage industrialism.
