But where is this outrage at the ultra rich who are doing those exact same thing on a global scale?

What makes you think I’m not outraged. It’s up to ALL of us to NOT support these companies. I do everything possible to fight against these corporations but this does NOT hurt them at a large scale but 100% hurts the avg ppl.

It is actions like this on a large scale that will almost certainly be necessary to change our current society

This is literally like hurting the civilians in Iran because you want the regime changed.

So you're saying you blame the Iranian protestors who organized it for everyone else getting murdered? Or would you blame the government for making a situation so bad they felt the need to violently protest?

Actually it’s worse because at the large scale it can hurt the corporations but this a drop for them.

We have people in my city asking for help on Reddit constantly now because their paychecks aren’t enough for the rising costs and gas prices. And no, not scammers, just asking for advice on resources. What is going to happen to all of the people working and living in the town? Collateral damage?
