Many of the liberals below clearly don't know any small business owners. Petty tyrants can be just as personally vicious as larger capitalists, and both live via theft of labor time.
Many of them also use their children / family as unpaid workers, who they would be happy to throw out of a home for not fulfilling their duties.

if i had a dollar for every time a small business owner took offense because my autism made them feel like i was an asshole to them and then fired me while trying to take the software that i developed for them, it would be able to buy myself a couple beers and think about how i could avoid them. :p
Do people not realize that Uber/Doordash/etc drivers that get shitty income are also legally sole proprietors?
The first small business owner I worked for got busted for human trafficking because one of his slaves died on the job. He was able to somehow maintain not only his business but also was able to go free without any consequences. I got out of there very quickly. From then on I internally scream whenever people start worshiping small businesses.
My city allows small business owners to have lower minimum wages and less benefits offered than big corporations.
Not every exasperated petty bourgeois could have become Hitler, but a particle of Hitler is lodged in every exasperated petty bourgeois
That's right I'm posting Trotsky on .ml
There are non fascist small business owners, right? Why does the meme specifically say fascist small business owners?
The petite bourgeoisie is the most reactionary class that drives fascism. As capitalism decays, small business owners are the most threatened into becoming proletarian, so they adopt the most reactionary positions advocating for open terror against the working classes.
Western hyper individualism is brain poison.
Post a meme about small businesses
Fine I'll support big businesses
Fucking liberals can't even imagine a world where the workers seize the means of production lol
It probably has something to do with how those are the only two immediate options most of the time and people can't just implement ideals out of thin air
Small business owners are the absolute worst. I worked for a few in my youth and they feel so entitled to exploit labour and get legit mad when they can't?
I took one guy to the labour board for unpaid wages, not even run-of-the-mill exploitation, and I thought he was going to get violent in the mediation 😬
I had one get a $12M bonus for the three stores they owned while telling me they can’t afford a raise or full time because things are tight for everyone
Then left the check on the desk after doing an e-deposit or whatever - then leaving for the day at 12:30
Lol what's most hilarious about this is that if they are getting a bonus it implies that they are not actually small business owners, they are at best franchisees. So the business outsourced the risk.
