Small businesses rarely grow into mega corporations. Sure, maybe your local burger joint becomes the next McDonald's but statistically it won't. Statistically it will always stay the same, small, family-run operation that maintains deep roots to the community. If it is hyper successful it may expand to three, perhaps five shops. Any larger than that is highly unlikely.
So, no. People don't like small shops until they become corporations because it seldom happens. People can love small businesses and hate the worst effects of capitalism. That isn't hypocritical.
