Here's the thing. Most corporations today believe in "stakeholder" capitalism . Most follow ESG. This means they explicitly state that they are not all about profit but instead also about making the world a "better" place. And what is the result of that? I would argue that corporations are now more evil than ever.

Capitalism is great, but it only works when founded on a strong moral framework. Christianity served that purpose for the history of capitalism. However, once you abandon or corrupt your morality, then you'll see the majority of corporations do evil things, no matter whether they claim to only care about profits, or whether they claim that they also want to save the environment and bring about equity, inclusivity, or whatever Marxist Utopian ideal is in vogue at the moment.
