When you can't sleep, you write a script for the opening of The Corporate Horror Show...
Long ago, in courtrooms cloaked in suits and silence, a strange transformation began.
Corporations—lifeless creations of paper and ink—gained constitutional protections in the name of personhood.
And from those rulings, something stirred.
Something without flesh.
Without blood.
Without a soul.
The corporate person opened its eyes.
It had no heartbeat, but money coursed through its veins.
It had no stomach, but its hunger was endless.
And it had no grave waiting for it.
Its founders would grow old. Its executives would die. Generations of workers would pass through its doors.
But the creature could remain.
Feeding. Growing. Waiting for its next acquisition.
Soon, there were corporate persons everywhere.
They towered over towns. Swallowed smaller businesses whole. Sank their teeth into the places where people lived and worked.
Their names glowed above our streets.
Their voices poured from our televisions.
Their money crept through the corridors of government like veins spreading beneath a corpse’s skin.
And when people tried to bring them under control, the creatures reached for something extraordinary: Something sacred....
Constitutional rights.
Corporate personhood was created
The corporate person cannot gasp for breath when the air turns poisonous.
It cannot feel a chemical burn eating into its skin.
It cannot bury a loved one
But the people living in its shadow can.
And when those people gather—when they demand clean water, safe workplaces, a voice in their own future—the corporate person can enter a courtroom and invoke constitutional protections to fight their laws.
Imagine a creature that can reach into your life but has no life of its own.
An entity that could leave death in its wake—and never spend a single night behind bars.
You cannot wait for old age to loosen its grip.
It can survive the people who built it, the people who run it, and the people who spend their lives resisting it.
That is what makes this such a chilling ghost story.
The haunting can pass from one generation to the next.
And the creature’s greatest protection?
The whisper that follows us everywhere:
“This is normal.”
“This is inevitable.”
“There’s nothing you can do.”
But every curse has a history.
And this one was written by human hands.
People created corporations. Courts expanded their constitutional protections. And people, organized together, can change the Constitution.
We can end corporate personhood.
We can establish that constitutional rights belong to human beings only—and that money is not speech.
That’s the work of Move to Amend.
And tonight, we’re inviting you to help exorcise corporate rule.
