So Coke asked people about their dreams, then celebrated the diversity.

Rather profound contrast to the Kochs, who are busy trying to destroy all those dreams.

I get scared when people talk in a language I don't understand! Makes me want to go get more guuunns and build that fourth fallout shelter!

The real question is Coca Cola the Anti-Cola?

I chide myself for not being bilingual or multilingual......I think I will make that a goal, especially if I am ever able to retire......learn another language....probably Spanish so I can have extra TV channels

Only the name Diller rings a bell and I don't know his politics. Next block of data down lists the major institutional holders. Berkshire Hathaway holds a lot, which is owned partially, of course, by Warren Buffett.
