What's wrong with this protest?  At lunch time, you can hardly get near 
the UBC McDonald's; most students know to ignore buffoons like 
the "culture jammers".

: Culture Jammers opposes the corporatization of campus and also opposes

I think "corporatization" looks a lot better on a Campus than the various 
leftist anti-anything-they-don't-control groups.
