What if corporations were actual living beings?
What if they could bleed, what if they could feel grief and insecurity, what if they could truly experience all of the kinds of physical and psychological pain and suffering that they have inflicted on real people and the living world?
What if corporate-owned properties were in reality the exposed appendages of vulnerable physical bodies? What if broken windows and burned delivery vans and shattered computer monitors and severed power lines hurt? What if cyberattacks and blocked shipments and vandalized warehouses and crippled communication conduits caused them to feel real frustration? What if defacement of corporate logos on a billboards and signs caused them to feel genuine humiliation?
How long would it take before we could make their corporate lives so miserable that they begged to be euthanized? How long before they committed corporate suicide?
Corporations are not living beings, of course. But what if we actually treated them that way?
