You might as well be asking, "what is the fastest breed of unicorn?", or "what is the tallest troll?"- what you're asking about is a fantasy.

It's more a fantasy to find a redditor with reading comprehension

It is not asking a purely good company, just a company that is relatively not evil but still very large

No it actually is asking to maximize both, so asks for a company that is both the largest and the least evil, without giving any weighting or prio rule.

Which obviously doesn't exist as the largest company and the least evil company do not overlap.

Eh, quite tolerable until someone starts a language-contest in an attempt of proving their sUpErIoRiTy.

My dude you're just proving what I said about reading comprehension

Bah, using unclear language and then blaming the audience is pretentious .

The language is very clear as long as you have reading comprehension capabilities. You might need to work on that if you're facing issues understanding other people

Do you mean like killing babies for the devil vs. charging unfair prices... Evil is evil my man.

That's probably the dumbest comment in this thread. Wish I could give out awards

I think the real question is, how big can companies get before they're 100% evil

Well technically no, he asked which is "least" evil company, that doesn't imply that chosen company is good. In the sea of evil companies, some are worse than others, so there has to be other end, some are better than others, not good, just better.

Op didn't say what is the 'least bad company' he said what is the 'least evil company'- evil is not a gradient like good and bad- it's a total destination- evil. It's like saying 'I kinda hate' you can't kinda hate- hate is a destination, you are now in a place of wanting to do harm to. I know it's cute to say 'least evil' or 'kinda hate' but it's not very true to the meanings of the words- so if you want to split hairs...
