For one reason or another, modern social justice ideology has become extremely anti-capitalist. According to them, capitalism is pretty much the biggest evil in the world, and it must be destroyed, squashed and completely eradicated from the world. Big megacorporations are greedy, exploitative and oppressive. They unashamedly and blatantly exploit cheap labor and natural resources in developing countries, and are pretty much the modern equivalent of colonialism. Corporatism is one of the biggest evils in this world.
But the mind of the social justice warrior is as fleeting as April sunshine, and will happily swing to the other extreme when it suits them.
It's very easy for a huge exploitative overly-powered monopoly megacorporation to turn social justice warriors to their side, and have a horde of ideologues defending them: Simply ban and refuse service to a famous personality that the social justice warriors hate. They can do this at the flick of a button, and suddenly they will have an army of zealot defenders.
Yes, suddenly all these anti-capitalist zealots will become more corporatist than even the most extreme American conservatives. Suddenly corporations have all the rights in the world to discriminate against people based on their political opinions. After all, "free speech only stops the government for punishing people for their opinions", and doesn't apply to corporations. Corporations can choose their clients at a complete whim, and can ban and deny service to whoever they want.
Isn't it funny how easy it is to turn social justice warriors into allies for megacorporations?
