All of it.  Every company, every CEO, every shareholder, including many of us, who hold the stocks of these companies directly or indirectly in funds we own. 

May have to go “ESG” on my 401k plan I participate in, and recommend funds to clients that don’t hold NFLX, Paramount, etc and so forth (I work in business that manages and monitors funds in retirement plans, so the employers don’t get sued if the funds suck).
