       By contrast, large #corporations in #Minneapolis have been much less vocal about the effects of #immigration enforcement on the city, known as both a bastion of progressive politics in the #US #Midwest & a robust corporate #employer. 17 #Fortune500 companies are based in #Minnesota, including #Target, #UnitedHealth, & #GeneralMills.#complicit #economy #business #SmallBusiness #WorkingAmericans #Trump #affordability #CostOfLiving #authoritarianism #kleptocracy #plutocracy #ForMeButNotForThee

       @Nonilex so many fortune 500 companies are complicit, if not instigators, of the fascist turn in the government.

       @Nonilex In an era where tech oligarchs have been paid by the likes of Paul Singer, Putin, #PrinceBonesaw, and Koch Network to develop digital dossiers on almost everyone on the planet, purportedly simply for "advertising",  but it's been morphed into a marketing campaign for a future ruled by fascist corporations & plutocrats, not citizens. With technology at this scale, why do we have political parties at all? 1/

       @Nonilex Minnesota Business Journal has reported that around 60% of the businesses on Lake Street have closed either temporarily or permanently as a result of ICE. Revenue losses of 40-80%.Commercial real estate vacancies have skyrocketted. This is not only an attack on Minnesota's community, it is an attack on our economy.
