The worst corp I can think of is Nestlé, these pieces of shit have done a lot of environmental damage and have been known to engage or complicit in slavery.

Erasing Nestlé is like erasing the infectious boil on a human body.

What foul company would you erase for good and why?

    News corp. They’re the single most effective driver of fascist influence in the 21st century among the politically passive part of the population. Everything that all these other companies do is underpinned by News Corp outlets like Fox, The Sun, etc. justifying, equivocating, scapegoating and propagandising.

    Microsoft…

    Embrace Extend and Extinguish is a masterpeace idea created by them.

    Lots of Lobbyism and political people working for Microsoft managed to change an entire city to switch the OS even though everyone was for keeping it how it is. Additionally sending government emails to places to enforce the usage of Windows, while in reality, those were people working for Microsoft and abusing their Political email address.

    They are so fucked up on the capitalism game. Also MSN is a huge lie because it only> exists for Propaganda… but its like every news page tbh…n

    I wanted to say Meta but reading things like Nestlé reminded me there are other companies that are equally as bad.

    Now I wonder if Nestlé can be considered more evil than Meta because Meta influences the population on such a low level that it affects everyone.
    Thanks to those fuckheads at Meta (not the devs trying to make a living) Any developed country went so far right it’s almost unbelievable how fast it turned.

    with the exception of some mom and pop cornershops, some state owned corporations and almost all worker-owned cooperatives, pretty much all of them can go. but i’d start with palantir.

    All of them. Limit the size, ban acquisitions. Break up monopolies. They’ve never been good for everyone and just become exploitative.

    See Dutch East India company, the worst of the lot who was a corporation that had their own military. Learn from history so mistakes are not repeated again.

    So angry at Nestle and the time they killed all those African babies doesn’t even hit your highlight reel. I agree- we can do without Nestle.

    I mean, all that are privately owned. A system that puts profit above all else will never have any corporation that acts ethically and in the interest of society.

    But I also wanna mention, Nestlé isn’t a particularly evil corporation. It’s just the only food corporation where we know these things they’ve been up to but you can be damn sure the others aren’t any better.

      I’d argue the publicly owned ones are actually the bigger problems. At least with privately owned ones there’s usually a single individual or small group of individuals that can be influenced threatened and held accountable, or what passes for accountability these days. With publicly own companies though there’s this concept of the nebulous shareholder. There’s such a wide range of people who own the shares of the company that they are untouchable yet at the same time completely ignorable. Companies don’t have to answer to the shareholders because the shareholders don’t feel involved enough or care enough to actually speak out. Instead it’s the concept of the shareholder. Which is actually more dangerous. That anonymity makes it a more brutal and ravenous concept. Private companies are able to think more long term because the private owner is able to think long-term, or longer rather, where is publicly owned companies that Anonymous shareholder concept requires constant unending and immediate growth. Which is a cancerous concept. For society and the planet both.

      Not that either is good of course, just that one’s more dangerous. Also Nestle is very very evil, publicly owned by the way.

    Why do people only hit the nail on Nestle? Yes yes I do agree they are bad and need to disapear…

    But haven’t you all heard about CocaCola? Who destroyed whole villages’ water source? Whole ecosystems to produce enough space to grow their ingredients?

    CocaCola is probably as evil as Nestle, they are on the same level of evilness !
