I’ve always wondered - what qualification do we use to decide when a “business” (run by a kind guy behind a counter he built himself from scrap wood) evolves into a “corporation” (evil and scheming, part of the global capitalist conspiracy)?
Like, if the guy who runs my local coffee shop opens a second cafe further down the street, should I start tapping his phone to find out how the YouTube Content ID system works, now that he’s a part of The Corporations? Should I start breaking into his cafe and start stealing scones? Or do we want to wait until he has a third location
What if my local coffee shop owner admits that he sought profit right from the beginning? And, so happened to aim for that by building a loyal customer base?
Free game for throwing rocks and stealing espresso brewers?
Or, maybe it’s worth establishing a system of nuance where you actually pay attention to the individual acts of particular companies, rather than grouping all businesses as “Corporations”?

When profit becomes the first priority (i.e. when personal passion becomes second place)

Some people just hate on any business regardless of their size or practices because “cAPitALism suX”
Probably a third location, just to be safe.
