maybe don't make such a general blanket statement that anyone could take offense from, next time maybe? maybe don't blame anyone for corporate greed except the corporates who are greeding instead of getting upset about nothing

The 'general statement' had a very specific qualifier that the op ignored in order to make himself upset. It had nothing to do with generality and everything to do with ignoring half a sentence so someone could make themselves mad.
