  • Maybe they aren’t forcing us to buy shit directly, but a lot of the things they sell, particularly oil and gas are things we depend on because that’s how society is built.

    A lot of these completely blameless companies you are defending hire lobbyists to make it harder for individuals who are trying hard to make a difference to have any real effect on government policy. This ensures said companies can keep operating in the way they currently are to maximise profits.

    Yes, we could all be doing more, but it’s hard when huge multinational corporations are not only not working together with us to help, but spending billions of dollars to oppose legislation that could help because it would hurt their bottom line.
