Target, MasterCard, power tools, and everything else. I knew a lot of these companies were in bed with each other, but it's a disturbing thought to consider Target as part of the MCU canon.

      As a staunch Marxist, he becomes an objectivist, since he sees everything in black-and-white.

      This is a running joke in the Paranoia ttrpg. The insane AI that runs the dystopian megacity is extremely anti-communist, and since the AI is evil and crazy everyone assumes that communism must be awesome. But it's so far in the future after so many nuclear wars that no one really knows what communism is, so they base it off of fragmentary Marx Bros. movies. They also think that Lenin is the one from the Beatles.
