You must be talking about Blackstone, the private equity/LBO group, not BlackRock, the ETF provider. I don't think there is a Mobile Home Index ETF, not yet at least.
I think there is a lot of hate directed to BlackRock, which is really meant to be directed at Blackstone. BlackRock is an absolutely huge financial company, to be sure, but is soley in the business of ETFs and asset management, which aren't exactly abusive or extractive.
And no it doesn't help that the names are so ridiculously similar.
Edit: just learned that BlackRock started as an asset management arm within Blackstone, and the similarity was intentional. I think the operations have diverged enough since then that there's a worthwhile distinction between the two.
