I think you're reading a little too much into my post. When I said "human suffering," I was talking about things like, say, people being displaced, or chemicals poisoning water supplies (like with DuPont), etc. Just instances over the decades where corporations have been objectively and appallingly ****ty. Is Avatar hokey and heavy-handed? Sure. But I don't think anyone is confusing RDA (the company in the movie) with Starbucks or whatever.
I think you'd be surprised at many gen z'ers and late millennials. The same people who quite literally equate disagreement and criticism to physical violence don't make a distinction between not paying them a "living wage" and things like groundwater poisoning or child labor exploitation, regardless of any other ethical behavior or choices.
This is a good read on it from a pair of fairly liberal authors. It's not this exact subject, but details the basis and pervasiveness of the thought process that arrives at such conclusions.
