Their very existence doesn't align with my politics, or any decent person's politics for that matter.

Smart, successful people offering products and services that lots of people want does not align with your politics? What are your politics?

People extracting value from labor to enrich themselves at the expense of society and then using those riches to further corrupt society, to the point where a few dudes own most of the country does not align with my politics.

That's why I'm a socialist and I would invite anyone who thinks things might not be going in the right direction to consider that as well.
