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?

      Societal drug abuse is indicative of so many systemic issues. It’s far beyond a shame that conservatives used ‘the war on drugs’ to attack minorities and political dissenters and enrich pharmaceutical companies instead of focusing on the roots of the issue.

    I’m deleting Palantir, I think. I want Peter Thiel and his toxic ideology gone, and deleting Palantir’s data and software would meaningfully set back the timeline of unlawful surveillance of the American public by our current administration.

    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.

    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 !

    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.

    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.

    Tyson.

    Iirc, largest meat supplier. Which means they are a huge catalyst to the industry that literally profits on death and misery more than any other.

    Their products are corpses, their human workers are in the industry with the highest rate of PTSD from their jobs, and by simply existing they’re helping create superviruses by fostering cramped sheds of half-dead animals that can barely move sleeping on their own shit and being kept alive just long enough to slaughter, using powerful antibiotics that will become useless a lot faster than if we used those antibiotics to protect humans instead of giving the perfect environment for viruses to adapt to and overcome them.

    Fuck the whole animal agriculture industry, and extra fuck the biggest corps behind them.

    Blackstone inc.

    Private equity firm. Owns more than $1 trillion in residential properties. It also owns or manages around 250 property developers worldwide

    Making it disappear basically solves the world wide unaffordable housing crisis.

      All corporations are evil, but this one has a special place in my heart’s hell. Blackstone’s Invitation Homes robbed me of $3k and ruined my credit for years.

        What’s an invitation home? Can you elaborate? We want to get a home someday, but I’m not aware of all the nuances yet.

          It’s a shell corp they use to buy up all the residential housing in cities across the US, and with a nice name like Invitation Homes who would ever guess that they’re a multinational conglomerate? As long as you’re not renting you should be fine other than the fact that corporate rentals, ‘investment properties’, and Airbnb have cannibalized the housing market. Good luck.

    Nestle, Shell, BP, prager U, PayPal (interac please), Uline, Home Depot, Wal-Mart, that dollar store brand.

    All of these have destroyed the environment, destroyed our democracy, or destroyed our small cities and towns.
