'Free' Market Racism

'Free' Market
Deregulation favours the powerful



Summary: The large corporations and corporate media conveniently ignore the most large-scale racism out there, instead moaning about their victims being intolerant and fussy

THE PROFITS make jobs aplenty As "war on terror" turns twenty

More bombs beget wealth Ask IBM how many bombs we should have

Microsoft provides everything for ICE But it bans the word "master" because we must all be nice

Regulation might harm the economy Or so says the false dichotomy

Free software communities are very unruly Because they oppose corporate racism, ever so truly

Unstaffed by monopoly makes one a bigoted nut Or so said the kettle to a pot

Racist IBM: What's the world's most racist company? IBM.Support the monopolies, or else you're a Communist Executives with multi-million-dollar salaries call you a narcissist

Free market wins, just look at the debt Taxpayers will bail out, collaterals for the bet

Apple sweatshops made in China Scanning all your files for a vagina

Communism works for the rich Get back to work, don't moan and bitch

Racism is what the media deems it Like the 'wrong' branch name in Git

IBM saluting diversity To gaslight and bury adversity

Money sets you free Ignore the strange fruit on the tree

Back to your cubicle, labourer Ignore your boss, the murderer

"Women and minorities paid less"Quarterly results imminent Creative accounting of the pertinent

Blame Russia, China, and COVID-19 pandemic Never admit the company is just a relic

Come back to the office with lowered pay There's nothing you can even say

Women and minorities paid less Because to discrimination we proudly say "yes!" ⬆
