If corporations are multiplying injustice - the food industry destroying our health, pharmaceuticals exploiting those in need, clothes stripping dignity of consumers and producers alike, plastic polluting land and music a vechihle for a wrong kind of culture…

“We are told to remember the idea, not the man because a man can fail. He can be caught, he can be killed and forgotten, but 400 years later, an idea can still change the world.” — V for Vendetta
