And? Does that make it better or worse? Personally I don't give a shit that he is a meme guy I knew that, but he is not the right meme guy for this sort of meme IMO.
It's a story about workers flexing their strength against the boss and having the boss back down. It seems to fit just fine to me.
I can't possibly imagine why you seem to be so offended over all this.
Except it's not really malicious compliance, it's just compliance.
Its not malicious compliance to hang up on a customer in the middle of a call, or ignore other customers calling during business hours because your boss mandates you take lunch at an exact time? Whatever you say, buddy.
The muscle of the Union.
Memes are conceptual not literal
