Except
Elon Musk this
Yep.
and Israel that.
Definitely that.
Microsoft ruining windows,

AI ruining internet,
Nah. Stupid just has a new source.
right wingers and capitalism ruining the world,
Just for the 99%
police being racist and shooting innocent people,
A painfully bad generalization based on sensationalized news and really badly-trained american muni cops.
companies demanding workers into offices,
See: 'capitalism ruining the world', above.
privacy being under constant attack from all sides…
We need to aggressively shun the worst companies and keep doing it until they evolve.
And all this despite the effort I go thru to block that from my view
I see people writing 'thru' like it's a whatsapp chat with their school-chums. It's okay to dislike what you see, and it's okay to feel overwhelmed at times. Remind people - like people who think 'thru' is appropriate - that they're smarter, they know better, and they can be better, but that it's also okay to be working toward that goal without having achieved it yet.
This will all be fixed, but it feels like a lot, right now. We CAN work on more than one thing at once, too: people can learn the difference between 'the person that I saw' and 'the person whom I saw' (one of them is an insulting objectification) while they also improve how they sort recyclables. Like how your mom would tell you not to shuffle your feet while she reminded you not to slouch while you walk, there will be many cases where we can be improving one thing and it won't impact improvement in another avenue.
Just do your best. That's all anyone can ask, now as it always has been.
