...What is perhaps most jarring is the emergence of an alliance between big business and leftist radicals.

One would think big businesses would be wary of all this disorder. Presumably, company assets and the cushy lives of their executives are jeopardized by violence in the streets. But, like wealthy people and institutions everywhere, large corporations are well insured. They’re also shielded from much of this disorder, having moved many of their manufacturing operations overseas and spending most of their non-working time in gated communities and well-guarded high rises.

More important, these companies share the basic moral outlook of the protesters and rioters. Uber Eats earlier this month announced that black-owned businesses would have free delivery privileges on its system—a possible violation of Title VII. Apple has pledged donations to organizations challenging "racial injustice and mass incarceration." Banks have closed early to celebrate Juneteenth, something that almost no one outside of Houston had heard of only a few weeks ago.
It's all class war - keeping the potential competitors from arising out of the middle class. Notice, how anti-racism does not apply to Asians - the only minority who can challenge the current ruling class.
