I Own Danaher

And let Danaher know that this is not okay. They're @danahercorporation here, and on most social media platforms.

Oh, man. You know things are dire when a primary benefit to JOHN GREEN is GOING TO MEETINGS. Godspeed, John!

*Next Danaher shareholder meeting:*

"We've been receiving continued calls to decrease our test prices in low and middle income countries, and we fear it could begin to effect our interests financially."
....
"Well where are these calls coming from?"
...
"The call is coming from...inside."

John woke up and decided to fight Danaher with the only weapon Danaher understands. John's brief stint of a CEO has instilled new powers in him.

John Green buying a share of a company as both a promise and a threat that he will tank his own portfolio until we are heard is both an incredible strat and also the funniest and most on brand thing I've ever heard.

John, as a shareholder, you can vote in the company's annual meeting too! I love voting "no" on approving executive compensation for other billion dollar companies I own 3 shares of.

Can you IMAGINE being a big shareholder that likes making money, and then THIS NERD drops into your conference call and talks your ear off about how you're actively making healthcare harder to access around the world? Love you, John.

The "video info NOT the Holy crap this guy means business😳

To see these brothers wielding the polite but persistent hammer that is Nerdfighteria brings me immense joy.

Shareholder activism is, I think, an underrated tactic. Yelling in the public square is important in a lot of ways, but getting in a room and quietly talking lands different and, often, with more impact. Plus, the opportunity to vote for various choices and roles within the organization can make change happen fast, too.

Signed. I remember when John started mass posting about TB and thought "this is a strangely niche interest of his". Now I want nothing more to storm the gates of TB and destroy it

[darkmooink]

For those interested, Danaher is currently trading at $248.60 and dropped a little (50c) at the exact time this video was published,

John, showing up at the next shareholders' meeting in a DFTBA habit and ringing a bell: Shame! Shame! Shame!

[stefanrusek]

Now we're both shareholders. Thanks for the idea. I too want to lower our prices.

[Nill-ls]

John, there was a recent study that suggested invoking one’s legacy can encourage the rich to act more charitably. That might be a strategy to add to your persuasive repertoire when speaking with other shareholders, if you haven’t tried it already. Thanks as always for your efforts on TB

[erinfarmer]

This may single-handedly be the best and most productive hyper fixation there ever was

[johnmcdairmant]

“The only way to get Danaher to do the right thing is to cost them more in reputational harm than they make from overcharging the poor.”

[jacforswear]

The thrill I got when John said he gets to attend meetings and tell other shareholders how they are profiting off of sick people in impoverished circumstances!! There is a rush in getting to be the person who can hold the mirror up for people to face their own greed and systemic violence.

[abdullahenani]

Hey John, thanks for sharing my meme! I’m glad you enjoyed it :)

[RayJJohnston]

This is a masterclass in polite savagery. Kudos John.

John has become a menace and im here for it! He is defying the system. Making it his life mission.
