If I say that male lions kill the cubs of rival males when they take over a pride, I am stating an observation, not making a moral claim that I am "on the side" of lions killing cubs.
It's a fair observation that the structural incentives of modern investment driven capital are that growth is absolutely rewarded and morality is often not.

At the scale of many corporations, it's very hard for enough people to care enough to affect the company's actions.
