I hope both Twitter and Wal Mart fail.

What in the world would ever make you think Walmart would “fail”?

I mean to be fair they only said they hope.

Apply the same critique to anything someone hopes.

I hope Santa brings me a bike this year!

I hope my cancer goes into remission.

I hope I get to see them in heaven someday.

The presence of hope doesn't necessarily mean the person believes their statement is going to happen though. On the tangent of Walmart, I hope Amazon Fails too :).

No I’m just saying it’s a funny thing to say to someone saying “I hope” I think hope’s just an unrealistic distraction, but I also hope big box stores get collapsed.

Probably one where Amazon overtakes them.

Nah, America's gonna wake up and overthrow our oppressors any day now.

Surely before they destroy the environment beyond hope of redemption.

This made me lol but it is something I fantasize about

0% chance of happening. Amazon is on the downturn, Walmart is not.

Why would you want the grocery store with the best deals and largest presence outside of major cities to fail?

Because, while they do provide low prices to consumers. They are absolutely evil to their employees. And source inventory from extremely evil companies (i e. Slave and child labor)...

What about Target, Whole Foods, Kroger, etc? Are they exempt from what you're accusing Walmart of?
