"Evil" seems to be commonly confused with "successful business". Every corporation has the same intentions, but nobody ever thinks corporations are evil until they become the big dog on top.
The concept of "business" at its purest form is entirely about a profitable barter. If someone has a problem with McDonald's business model, the problem they have has less to do with McDonald's itself and more to do with the corporate flowers that sprout from capitalist soil.
It seems odd to me that people are so willing to call something evil for being good at what our society encourages. Maybe save "evil" for shit that actually matters? Or for something the word accurately represents? McDonald's is just a place that will give me shitty burgers really quickly if I give them small amounts of money. They'll sell me a billion burgers if I have the amount of money they require. They don't give a fuck if I eat so many burgers I literally explode. That's not evil.
McDonald's only becomes evil once someone believes in the idea that Americans are so thoroughly helpless and witless that the most worthless turd of a toy is enough for a corporation to overpower their parenting. And if you believe that, I have to wonder why McDonald's is the thing you're choosing to fight in that situation.
