Corporations aren't
"trying to create a simplified, efficient system of justice – they're creating a two-tiered system of justice. They get to go to court if you hurt them. Vandalize a Shack Shack restaurant and they'll drag your ass in front of a judge before you can say "listeria." But if they cause you to shit yourself to death, you are literally and figuratively shit out of luck.
"That's really bad. Two-tiered justice is always and ever a prelude to fascism."

Oh, huh, I always thought "enshittification" was just an idiom.... 😬
Shake Shack wants you to shit yourself to death: The bifurcation of justice is always and ever a prelude to fascism.
