Whoever came up with this meme has never heard of BP, Shell, Eni, Siemens, Spotify or the numerous European fast fashion companies that depend on sweat shop labor to survive.

Meh, all those companies might have originated in Europe but are mostly US based with their same ethos too

Plus the fast fashion companies are getting their arses handed to them by the EU. Zara, H&M etc all got a good slap recently

Same ethos? BP was worse when it was Anglo-Persian or just British Petroleum. Shell is very much European and one of the world's most immoral companies. Siemens is as German as Samsung is Korean and just as corrupt.

Possibly you misunderstood

US based with their same ethos

Meaning they're as fucking immoral and evil as US companies
