3. Some really great responses
I don't think I saw a single one that wasn't criticizing that hack piece.

Liked this one especially:
Dear Mr. Cohen,

You drafted this article while sitting at a computer manufactured in communist China, whose workers toil under communist oppressors.

You drafted this article while wearing shoes manufactured in Pakistan by Nike, whose workers derive incomes below any reasonable living wage.

You likely drafted it while wearing a shirt made in Bangladesh, see above.

These tasks were once done by American workers, whose jobs were shipped to these nations so that the corporations you shill for could stop paying health insurance costs, stop paying into retirement plans, stop paying a living wage and stop having to comply with workplace safety and environmental regulations. This paradigm was sanctioned by the bought-and-paid-for government who currently sits in Washington. That's what these protests are about.

So you too use the fruits of labor of your idealogical opposites to accomlpish your goals...
