Ask Lemmy

All of them. They end up the same, by design.

Walmart. I'm from a rural area and they wiped out all of the small businesses and contributed to a lot of economic hardship for the people. (Not that they were in a great position before, mind you.) I believe this continued economic hardship scared some people into leaning more conservative. The conservatives always gave them false hope. And thus the cycle continues...

Any American mainstream social media I strongly dislike as well. Meta, Twitter, and Reddit are all contributors to disinformation and pushing a more right-wing agenda to people.

BlackRock, KPMG, McKinsey Consulting.

I hate all corps but on this occasion I'm going to single out Nintendo for everything they've done since forcing Yuzu to shut down. Scummy bastards of the highest order.

Tesla by a country mile.

I can't think of one I like nowadays.

I would love the Philip Morris board of directors to be Mangioned. You must be a special kind of evil to create mobile devices with the sole purpose of getting kids addicted to nicotine.

Apple.

There are worse companies, Google, Facebook, all oil companies, and Nestle, to name a few.

But with the exception of the original iPod with that sweet wheel interface, there's never been a single thing from Apple that looked appealing to me.

Edit: Oh and Amazon

I despise Meta, and always have, but the company I hate most is... ...the entire health insurance industry. UnitedHealth is the worst, but there isn't one among them that isn't ruining lives and killing people on a surprisingly large scale every single day.

I prefer to focus on things I like. I mean, I hate Facebook too. I have an account because I admin my work page but I don't use it personally. But what I like are hikes and campfires and driving on terrible almost impassible dirt and rock roads/trails in the mountains.

That's a really hard question. I immediately wanna jump out and yell NVIDIA, Apple, Meta, etc. because of their incredibly shitty anti-consumer and predatory practices but then I'm reminded seemingly "good" companies are just as bad if not worse, like Valve making billions by turning children into gambling addicts. So, I guess all of them?

Anything from the USA, where enshittification is practically guaranteed. LiNe MuSt Go uP!!1!! Even more so under the current admin. Fart wants to isolate the USM (orons)? Fine with me, there are plenty of alternatives.

I'm not deyanked yet but it's in progress.

Amazon, google, meta, apple and amazon. To many reasons why to list

GoodWill comes to mind. Their coattail riding off of literally anyone who isn't them is one of the reasons why I adopted a charitable modus operandi with the roles switched. There are three sides to GoodWill, being the gifters, the sellers, and the workers, and they all operate under a synergetic weave of false pretenses. They also ban people from shopping at GoodWill if they have a relative who works there because it brings up questions of nepotism and don't let workers buy any of their own stuff. So yeah, if we could get a law saying we can ban GoodWill managers from our own businesses, I wouldn't bat an eye.

Amazon. Fuck Amazon and bezos.

About fucking ready to wipe Budget rental car off the face of the earth for the bullshit they gave me about their insurance.

Learned a tough lesson from that one.
