Okay: it criticized the corporate bullshit machine, how it promotes short-term thinking, and how it turns hopeful, creative people into burned out cynics. Yes, it had flaws, it overused the “work, amiright” trope and it liked to kick downwards, for instance. But at its core it was a sarcastic criticism of capitalism and our broken society that resonated with lots of people. Even if it never spelled such things out.
Doesn’t excuse the author being a racist asshole, of course.
