Sorry guys that a inding of Isaac placement is definitely me. I decided to finally beat all the bosses with every character and probably spent the whole month playing that game to do so.

Yeah and honestly that doesn’t do much to silence the idea of racist origins funny enough.
I’m from the area I know a lot about Hershey. But I meant he was a quaker esque religious descendant, which I know realize might not mean a lot outside of the US, people who were the predominant religious zealouts who founded the USA out of not wanting to be near all the hippies.
Specifically he was a Mennenite which probably means even less, so think Amish if you know that, or deeply devout conservative jew that believes in more suffering as being needed to love God. Interesting group. Even if he was progressive that background doesn’t let you get too far away I would think.
Oh deeply devout quaker style Catholic, you do everything for the sake of good hard work and labor. Gotta accept a little bit of time period appropriateness.
Well I will say Hershey USA has a combination of local farms to feed the populace and generate the products for the factory, a public pond and picnic grounds that also provides water pressure for the city by being a giant lifted open water reservoir, and he funded the arts and built free entertainment for his employees that he paid them to help build.
It was pretty good for the time period and his fund continues to fund one of the best orphanage programs. It pivoting to tourism is the unfortunate result of the USA believing in pretty much only the service economy.
A lot of the other 20th century Uber rich built public stuff mostly to buy positive opinion and get regulators/employees off their back. Hershey is a fully functioning company town still 100 years later. Not a lot of those around. But it certainly has issues cause of course, nothing is perfect or lasts perfect.
I mean he also blames the people using electricity and says they need to pay more to cover the carbon offset costs which sounds a lot like he’s looking for an excuse to raise prices and push governmental fees on consumers more directly in this same speech.
I read through the article and think him saying it’s too late is like the barely visible take when he’s flashing a neon sign of “I’m not cutting down production and you fuckers are gonna pay for it!” And blaming governments for not wanting to pay for company infrastructure changes is hilarious when they lobby to make it so there is no more government insight anywhere else but covering the costs they don’t want to pay.
He’s definitely on the list but yeah title and thing OP tried to pull from this is so not the worst part of it.
