Oracle slogan is "be exactly as evil as you can get away with".

Sadly they get away with it a lot.

I would argue that's true of virtually all publicly-traded for-profit companies. They just vary widely in how much they "can get away with".

If anything, the excerpt that the tweet shares from the blog post ("Pay No Attention to That Man Behind the Curtain") underplays how aggressive the post is. Alone, the tweet's image looks at first like a footnote disclosing funding sources, but the full context does indeed seem like systematic criticism of the briefs and everyone around them.
