  • Counter-counterpoint: the Tea Party was an astroturf movement funded by big oil, big tobacco and the Koch brothers. Given massive amounts of support by media companies (lots and lots of oxygen). With the purpose of taking over the GOP and entrenching their toxic industries and power.

    With the perspective we have now it is clear that their plan was to push Republican supporters over into fascism (not to say that it wasn’t latent within many of them) and reduce the risks of democracy to the oligarchy.

    Ugh… That’s got to be it. I was thinking something like a lobbyist probably fits the bill but a shareholder is better.

    Turn up to the AGM once a year and demand more profits even if it kills the business and beggars the workers. Cheese O’Clock.
