rich people ~~who ruin things~~
We've had standard stuff (injustices et. al), we've had edgy if understandable stuff (god/gods/religion/whatevs), so I think I'll instead go with an unhinged take that I (mostly) only say for the memes:
Dolphins. They're fucking assholes. And like. They are assholes in much the same way we humans are: They aren't thoughtless critters just following basic survival rules. They are higher-brained creatures that are intelligent enough to be capable of choosing between kindness and cruelty, and they are absolutely cruel in a lot of occasions.
Now you may be wondering "does that mean you also think humans should go", to which I say no, because I happen to be human. So of course I'm rooting for my own team. Dolphins are competition for the spot of "intelligent species that engages in cruelty" and so they gotta go.

Corrupt politicians

Imperfect political and economic systems like our current version of capitalism and democracy. (Both could be better, or even replaced by something different which is better.)
Violence.
Judging without critical and unbiased thinking.

Injustice.

10 mile long retail receipts!
Shares / Stock
So you're saying every company should be owned by a single person? If two people want to start a company, it should only belong to one person? That doesnt sound right to me...
Maybe it's more about the legal requirement for infinite profit due to being publicly traded. This has led to such fun things like, rising costs, planned obsolescence, the general enshitification of everything.
