Some of y'all need to learn the definition of Marxism if you're going to complain about it. I'm not a Marxist either, but it has a meaning other than "thing I dislike." I'll give you a hint: it isn't particularly compatible with large private businesses.


quote:

That's called "capitalism." It's literally what's been happening to large businesses in capitalist systems all over the world once they go public for the past several decades. The people who run the businesses are completely alienated from them as anything other than investments. They only care about making sure the line goes up every quarter.



He may have flubbed the wording, but what I think he was getting at was that this is the bastard child of corporatism and Cultural Marxism .


They've infiltrated the C-suites so deeply they can destroy from within and see it as some holy mission to purge the old "wrongthink."

Congrats on discovering corporations still like money! ….no one argued otherwise. The point as simple as I can put it, is it’s an attempt to slap Marxist cultural paint on a capitalist engine. While you pretend the paint job doesn’t exist.

JFC that’s what all the whining is about? fricking drama queens. I expected tranny dancers and assless chaps from the servers.

It’s much ado about nothing. More piling on from the morons that can’t think for themselves. Sheep.

I ate at the Cracker Barrel in Missoula this past Saturday morning and I'm pretty sure I saw the ignoramus test arranged in a faggy pattern.

why do you care?
what’s the big deal?
how does it effect you?
who is this hurting?
what’s with ____’s obsession over this?
….
if you don’t like it, just change the channel.

shift the focus, then paint it as your personal hang up.

It’s trolling or denial in 99% of cases. Fascinating to watch

Give me the brand. I’ll make the logo a bear in leather chaps holding a barrel and the peg game will become something totally different.

It will always smell like wet dumplins.

I could be wrong, but I don’t think it’s a long-running troll by any of them. More likely, they’re just contrarians, arguing while denying how far left the Left has drifted.

Went the other day, the new interior felt the same honestly. All they did was paint the walls white and add some booths. Wasn’t a big deal to me. The only thing that pisses me off is the logo redesign. That is unnecessary.

Couldn’t you say the same about the people who are upset by this?

And would you even know Cracker Barrel rebranded without the outrage getting funneled through the usual channels?

I was surprised to see how tame (and admittedly boring and ugly) the rebrand was because the reeeee-ing definitely made it into my feed before anything else did.

I used to frequent that Cracker Barrel when I lived up there. Got my Dolly Parton shirt from the store on the way out one morning

Yes they did. You see, Marxism is a political and economic philosophy calling for the abolition of private ownership of capital. Therefore, actions taken by private capital, which Marxists don't believe should exist, with a profit motive, which Marxists oppose, are not Marxist.

No, it's more like putting a new coat of exactly the same color paint on an engine, followed by you claiming that the new paint is actually an entirely different color and will make the car travel backwards.

This is just corporations doing what they do: getting blander over time as they attempt to maximize profit.
