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?

    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.

      Even corporations that are cooperatives? Municipalities are corporations (in my country). Are they bastards? How about corporations that are wholly government owned? The USSR was full of those.

        ” should make it obvious what kinds of corporations I’m talking about: the kinds that are privately owned, including the ones on so-called “public” stock exchanges.

      It’s not corporations function to be ethical. Their function is to make the biggest profit possible and they will be evil as fuck, if there are no repercussions.

      Corporations need to be constrained by law and oversight. Current trend is the opposite and we will be creating monsters to lead our future AI powered oligarchies.

    All of the biggest ones … no corporation should be allowed to amass so much wealth that they could literally control entire countries or regions of the world. The fact that this level of power and control exists means we value money and capital over human life or even more terribly the value of millions of human lives.

    Alphabet and Meta.

    They have a stranglehold on the internet that should never have been allowed to develop in the first place.

    But reading the other replies I guess my kneejerk reaction is a bit egocentric. Surely others are more important because they fuck up people’s lives directly, not just via the internet.

        Amazon controls corpos.
        Meta controls the general population (FB: Mostly older gen, Insta: Both young and old, WA: Also both). They control the political voice which is IMO more important if you consider voices more important than subtle (or not so) lobbying.

            I’d say Meta has more general population control with FB and Insta.
            AWS/Amazon is more corporate focused and only in the shadows for the general population.
            Short term I rather see Meta being able to manipulate rather than Amazon.

    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.

      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.

    If I get a single shot it’s Nestle for sure.

    Multiple shots? bp, shell, exxon for obvious reasons.

    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.

    Microsoft, Nestle, Alphabet, meta, all Elmo musk companies, Oracle, Rogers, Disney, all AI companies, all private equity companies, all gambling companies, all US health care insurrection companies

    Not necessarily in order, just pick any
