There's a lot of people and companies in the world I don't care for, for whatever reason. But I try to never put anyone down unless it's necessary to achieve so

There's a lot of people and companies in the world I don't care for, for whatever reason. But I try to never put anyone down unless it's necessary to achieve something more important. So I'd put down Soviet Communism because I'd like to see a freer, happier Russia, but I'm not going to waste my life putting down XYZ Ice Cream Parlor / Software Company / Whatever for doing something I dislike.
It's fashionable and easy to score a few points putting down McDonalds or Microsoft or whatever, and I used to when I was younger. I mean, it's so easy to put down McDonalds, and McD's really is legitimately garbage. But what's to gain from it? It just takes time away from me doing some science, doing some business, connecting with people I do like, reading, writing, painting, lifting weights, playing golf, going to a museum, having sex, swimming, sitting in a park, having a coffee, whatever. I don't need or want the short, easy points and bond that come with assessing my disgust/superiority/whatever over other people and organizations. Time is too precious to spend doing that.
