No, you're not alone in seeing the moral nuance, Mark.
When he writes of IG Farben or the Ludlow Massacre,
there's not a whole lot of room for moral nuance. I don't
know of any essays written by anyone (correct me
someone if I'm wrong) that show that the Rockefeller's
actions in the Ludlow massacre were based on a
genuinely moral outlook. You don't need to be a
moralizing prig to come down on the side of the miners. . . .
. . . . and if you're willing to take the Red Pill and go pedal to the metal
paranoid on the subject of the Rockefeller/Bush/Big Oil axis of evil, oozing
from AtD into GR and then on in to our present day; note how consistently,
in OBA's revisionist fictions, that crew gets to be "Worst Persons
of the Novel."
Coincidence? I think not . . . .
