McDonalds isn't out there killing anyone or telling people their loved ones have to die because they cost too much. Their CEO has nothing to worry about.
It's like a drug dealer or liquor store, they are just providing the means for you to harm yourself.
The McDonald's execs aren't anywhere near as bad. But they ain't innocent either. They're perfectly happy to pay poverty/starvation wages. They're perfectly fine with class war.
I know. They are responsible for a massive amount of climate damage alone, completely disregarding how they treat employees. I'm just saying that on any potential list of targets, they are going to be waaaaaaaaaaaay down the list.
I mean, Nestle, Meta, Monsanto, and Amazon still exist.
Don’t forget shell and all the ones that have making climate change way worse.
I’m okay with shitty Facebook; ruining the planet for all current and future life, imo that’s up there with the insurance companies.
They're definitely lower down on the list, but execs still need to live somewhere, and a good chunk of them live nearby other people to some degree, which can make them a convenient target for those that live nearby.
If your neighbor* was an exec for McDonald's, you saw them for the evil that they are, and you had a terminal illness or suicidal ideation, you'd probably give your local exec a thought or too, even if there are bigger fish to fry.
* using neighbor in a very loose sense here because of how they like to live in their own little gated communities
