Tangential, but related. I was shopping in Target and Walmart this afternoon. The Target store started playing Black Americans stories to celebrate Black Month. The narrator was yammering about some black inventor who got a patent. I have no idea who or why it was important, but it struck me as the Telescreens in 1984 carrying on and on and on. It was horrific. Captive shoppers being subjected by a corporation to some black history stuff. You cannot escape it now.
Captive?? No. All they had to do was set the merchandise back and walk out. Call the company headquarters and tell them why they won’t get their money any longer. Did you see anyone doing that? Most people just tune it out but it will take more than that.
Every blame can be lain at the feet of the normal people and their weakness.
