Exactly my thought. A corporation destroys people’s lives by firing them? Nothing. Someone actually pushes back? Suddenly the government gets involved.
Hmm, I wonder if it is actually. I think it’s just a euphemism for it’s wrong how" or “it’s weird how we as people keep allowing this to happen in a democratic world”, but I honestly don’t think it’s sarcasm.
I get the point and I write that way all the time too, but I thought to see what happens if I just stop participating in the pretense of it being weird.
But yes maybe it is just sarcasm, but like the same sort of rhetoric is often used to talk about problems which are sort of too complex and large to easily assert something which should or even could be done.
The amazing thing is that the government doesn’t get nearly as much tax income as you’d expect from these hugs companies. It’s almost as if the politicians have some other, secret motivating factor. Oh well, I guess we’ll never know.
Weird that these protections exist for corporations that aren’t actually people but no protections exist for the person who was fired.

And how our legal system is setup to best defend the wealthy.
They are the protagonists of democracy after all.

I don’t see how pretending that’s weird is gonna help anyone.
We all know we don’t live in a just world.
We need to try and make it one, instead of pretending we’re living in one which happens to have horrid injustice happening all the time.
I’m no English major, but I’m pretty sure @SoftestSapphic@lemmy.world calling it weird is a rhetorical device known as sarcasm.
