Diallo's Conspiracy Corner: Chipotle Mexican Grill Addition.
I'm just gone come right out and say it: I think Chipotle is a victim of Corporate Sabotage.
There, I said it; I will also have to quote the Big Homie Herman Cain and admit that, "I don't the facts to back this up," but we don't bother with facts in the Conspiracy Corner; we got something better: deep mistrust and suspicion.
Now, Chipotle was killinem like Lil terio in the Fast food industry, straight killinem! But that ain't enough to get you targeted, cuz the mega-cororations know that their profits are guaranteed because of Corporate subsidies, Tax loopholes, and many other financial tricks and treats that would get a person like you or me locked under a federal prison; but corporate personas and the Investor Class get away with all the time. So, rising to the top of the Corporate Fast Food Shit Pile is not biggie for Chipotle's competitors.
The real offense is their PR and product niches; Chipotle is the first multinational food chain to not only go completely GMO free, it also promoted organics, humane meat production (whatever the fuck that its), and meats free of Antibiotics and other Pharmaceuticals!
They did all of this, and the public was literally and figuratively eating it up. I couldn't pass by a Chipotle without seeing a long ass lines in any city I visited.
Now, when you stop fucking with GMO, start buying only drug free (and non-irradiated meats), sourcing organic products, and all that other shit, you ain't just fucking with Fast Food money, you are fucking with the entire Systems and Institutions of Capitalism.
I know yall been indoctrinated to think that Capitalism is all about competitions, free markets, independence, individualism, freedom, morality; and all that other shit; but in reality, Capitalism don't fuck with free markets, free enterprise, or independence and individualism; it's more integrated, centrally controlled, and interdependent than any Communist nation could ever hope to be.
Getting rich and staying rich under this parasitic system is not about innovation (most innovations comes from the public sector: read Socialism, the private sector just swoops in and eats up all the benifits after the public sector has done all of the initial investment and taken all of the risk; just study the development of the computer or the internet if you think I'm lying, but back to the topic...), getting rich is about conformity, about towing the line, about serving vested interest, it's about dependence; parasitic dependence, but still, it's dependence.
So, the pharmaceutical companies need to pump more than 80% of the medicines they make up the anuses on into the veins of cows, pigs, chickens, sheep, ducks, etc; in order to remain profitable. The meat industry needs to drug their living "commodities" to remain profitable as well because living creatures are not products and they tend to become diseased, cannibalize each other, go insane, and all kinds of other shit when they are treated like products, or like resources instead of like living creatures; kinda like humans. So like humans, they have to be drugged when they are oppressed, mistreated, or unjustly caged.
Also, these unhealthy meats cause millions upon millions of acute and chronic diseases in humans which further profits the pharmaceutical industry, but also the multi-billion dollar private insurance industry, private hospitals, medical equipment manufacturers (which also tend to be weapons manufactures too: see GE). So Chipolet's was fucking with defense industry money too!
Also, GMOs are needed because Capitalism is destroying our natural ecosystems, and to keep people from waking up to this, they need to able to produce food in toxic and dead environments. They need to produce food in soils that are both polluted and depleted of nutrients. So, when you fuck with GMOs, you ain't just fucking with Monsanto; you fucking with the entire System of Control.
Also, as ecosystems are destroyed for profits (real resources destroyed for Fiat currency); the military has to invade and secure more lands; and they have to kill more people as they take their resources and bring them back to the US (and the rest of the West) to sell to fat suburbanites for more profit. That's what all these damn trade deals are about from North American Free Trade Agreement to the Trans-Pacific Partnership; it's all about securing natural resources to be killed and burned so that they can become profits; which are just digits in a computer database.
Then there's the corporate media; Big Pharma, the GMO companies, the Fast Food Industry, the military, weapons companies; and all the rest spend billions on advertising with the media; so they gonna help to fuck Chipotle in any way they can.
I mean, I could go on and on about the Vested Interest and Systems that Chipotle was fucking with; this is literally the tip of the melting iceberg.
I'm just saying; when all of this comes to mind; I gotta think there's more to Chipotle's troubles than meets the eye; and now there's federal indictments coming down against the company!? They didn't do that to the muthafuckas who crashed the global economy, the didn't do that to the banks that were laundering billions in drug money; Obama's administration been literally letting corporations get away with murder; so ask yourself why he going hard in the paint against Chipotle?
The even bigger tragedy is that it was all just a gimmick, Chipotle don't give a damn about nothing but profits. All of these Fast Food corporations and multinational corporations in general are in it for profit only, not food, food is just the means to get profit; they could give a fuck about the food really.
This powerful interest that are sabotaging Chipotle knew that Chipotle was full of shit, and that Chipotle was fronting like they were a green company so that yall could feel like yall were contributing to your own health and the health of the environment, when yall was only contributing to profit projections. LOL!
They know it was a PR gimmick; but the System is too fragile to even allow other corporations to pretend like they are not towing the line; they know another crash is around the corner for Capitalism, and they don't want the masses to even imagine that there is any solution to Capitalism other than more and more Capitalism; and when you inject new notions into the minds of millions of indoctrinated Human Resources, you might experience unforeseen Blow back. Telling people they can have GMO-free, organic, and have antibiotic free food is just the seed (radical) that our Masters know can grow into a Revolutionary demand for an end to ecocide. Ecocide = Profit.
One more point: ask yo self, how did Chipotle do when they got in trouble? They fired their PR firm, not food safety staff, not the CEO, but their PR firm. The heads of Chipotle was probably all like: "You fucking hippie ass PR bastards dun got us all fucked up. You told us people love when corporations engage in Green Washing (fronting like they give a fuck about the environment, justice, or public health); but yall didn't tell us about the backlash! Yall muthafuckas is fired!" LOL!
Anyway, that's what went down, and how shit is going down; in my opinion. If Chipotle survives this, I bet yall they back off of all that "Non-GMO, anti-antibiotics, and pro organic" shit.
