Well, it is an analogy and implicit in that analogy is that you too are working for those same interests. Like that computer that lets peruse the internet and log into Mudcat and post your comments? That computer comes to you courtesy of "special interests" and so does the internet. Like your car and your house? Unless you built your car out of parts you made yourself, it came to you courtesy of "special interests." Unless you went into the woods and built your own log cabin, you house comes to you courtesy of "special interests." They own the means of all production and there's nothing you can do about it. So we're all guilty of working for the special interests which meeans we're all untrustworthy and can't even trust ourselves. Or we admit that we're being ridiculously cynical and offering nothing of value other than lessons in how to be overly dramatic.

So your choice is to accept it and stop acting like it's some heavy realization of a vast sinister conspiracy out to get you and get on with life or lay down and die. There can be no middle ground. You're ether living for something or you have no reason to be living. If the latter, then why are you still here bitching and whining?
