The Left Chose Roger

Remember that Michael Moore movie, Roger and Me? The whole movie is about the filmmaker trying to find the CEO of a corporation who laid off workers to berate him for his greed and the devastation he caused. Twenty years ago, this was standard leftist fare. I was young, and everybody I knew liked the movie. We were against outsourcing and we hated that big corporations were destroying manufacturing towns.

Today, a standard leftist movie would show the filmmaker hounding one of the laid-off workers to berate him for a “fascist tweet” in which the evil worker hurt the heroic CEO’s feelings by misstating his pronouns.

Leftism no longer even pretends to care about workers. The left is now openly and aggressively pro-CEO. It finally met Roger and discovered that he’s a lot more aesthetically pleasing than the workers he robs.
