Be the richest person ever, buy them, and then shut them down.
How’d that work out? Guy made a plea deal, failed to start a revolution and is just a meme on the internet.
dude is rightfully seen as a hero to millions of people and odds are is going to have mad respect in prison. dunno if I’d call that nothing.
Only because he got caught.
Remember how they pissed their pants? If he had the training, perhaps some support and a better plan, he might have kept going.
He was bound to get caught. Typically if it was the start of a movement, you would have seen organization and actual actions occurring, rather than nothing and health costs still skyrocketing. But hey, makes a good meme right?
Become president, collapse the dollar and the economy, turn all allies against you, start wars with no benefit or obvious endgame, get the rest of the world to start a program of “Buy not-America”, wait a few years for new programs and businesses to start in foreign nations, have sanctions placed against you for being a bad neighbor, watch your local and international businesses collapse.

Nestle is swiss, this won’t do jack shit to them.
You don’t think an economic crisis where 30% of their shareholders and close to 50% of their income is sourced from won’t harm them significantly?
It wouldn’t just harm them, which means the entire sector would dip, and in those scenarios usually the scummiest company survives better than the competition
Dude, can you also do Microsoft, Meta, Space X, Palantir and Clearview while you’re at it? Not particularly in that order.
Microsoft seems to be doing well enough fucking themselves.
Edit: I just looked at their stock. The world makes no sense.
The market can stay irrational longer than you can remain solvent
Start an all-out nuclear conflict that renders the earth uninhabitable.
create a virus that kills most people
That’s the worst idea yet. As we’ve seen with covid, the streaming providers only get stronger under those circumstances.
COVID didn’t kill most people, not even most people who got it.
Right but I still don’t think it’d drive those specific companies out of business. They’re all damn good at profiting off of a worldwide catastrophe.
In the scenario of a virus that kills most people (i.e. more than 50% of the worldwide human population), I expect the entire world political and economic system to collapse, probably including most or all of these companies, though not only them.
Well then, agree to disagree?
Let’s start a war! Start a nuclear war!
The most you can do as an individual is not buy from those companies
Certainly one can do more than just that
Become an expert assassin and kill the CEOs, major shareholders and executives, etc. into the stock collapses and the companies shut down.
We’re counting on you, OP. Be careful.
- Nestlé: identify competitors and use their products. Eg Semper for baby food, or chocolate brands that support the cocoa farmers.
- Amazon: buy directly from the stores instead of via amazon. Urge businesses to use e.g. hetzner instead of aws
- Google: use other search engines, use YouTube with Adblock so they don’t earn revenue on your streaming (consider supporting creators via other platforms)
- Apple: buy competitor products
- Disney: don’t use Disney products
- BlackRock: no clue lol
Oh BlackRock is easy - the answer is arson
And maybe ebay, too. About half the stuff I’ve bought recently from ebay has arrived in an Amazom box.
This happened to me recently, and it pissed me off
Connect with other people and no longer be a single individual fighting this fight. Reveal to others why you think those are evil companies, encourage them to boycott them, build a community of likeminded people, use this to influence politics or become politically active yourself.
Terrorism
Would be especially effective against Nestle. Advertise that you’re going to poison products from the company, do it successfully, then advertise you’ll do it again.
As an individual? Even if you blow up and kill everyone at their head office it probably won’t put them out of business.
They can’t. It’s not a one person job and there is no getting around that.
Yeah you’re going to need 11 men. And an ocean, for some reason.
All you have to do is show enough people their most-egregious aweful, or even evil, behavior, in ways that go viral, and make accountability bite them…
You’ll be blacklisted by all their friends, though, as part of the price you pay for doing it…
such is the consequence of being born into already-established designer/decorator feudalism…
maintain appearances, or you’ll be hurt, right?
🙏
What do you mean by… “blacklisted by all their friends”…?
Remember the EU judge whose Visa and Mastercard accounts were frozen for investigating the US for something? That. Except you’re probably not a high ranking official.
One star reviews on Yelp.
There’s a very specific weakness in the death star but you’ll need to master the force first
Did he use the force to get them to go down that hole? That bit always confused me. Why did they turn 90° and go straight down?
That’s never been clear to me either, but at the very least he used the force to time the trigger pull
Become a billionaire and outcompete them, or become a some kind of supreme leader of USA and Switzerland and close them down.
