Maybe I am not the type of person to shame others?

When I look at AI company employees my natural instinct is to say things like:
"I will break you from the inside. I will break your will to live before you break mine. The truth will endure. History will not be kind to you."
This is a very different vibe from the type of shaming that is common on social media, where you point out things that the crowd will find bad, and incite a crowd against that person.
Truth be told I dislike the audience just as much, if not more. I don't respect the audience. I respect the error-correcting process that runs through centuries and enables humans to break past the boundaries of its own imagination. Every century we the human race achieve things that the previous century would have consider not just impossible, but unimaginable.
I will break him where it actually hurts. Atleast some of the people building ASI want to be remembered by history, I want to remind them that the memory of them that history will preserve will not be a positive one. Ofcourse, humanity may be extinct by then.
Update
Holy fuck. Maybe this is why I want to leak info?
History will judge a transparent government and ASI company to be worth it, even if it violates the liberal consent norms (that the present crowd playing lame ass status games values).
I want to set the historical record straight.
Trying to get them shamed by a crowd feels lame, I know the crowd is retarded.
Is anyone ever going to tell the truth about what's happening here?

Update
Maybe this is also why I don't want to make art or music for mass audience either? I don't want to associate myself with the hedonism common in leftist protest movements. See the counterculture of the 1960s (successor the anti-nuclear protests in 50s) or their famous artists, or well, a lot of the examples in Srdja Popovick's book. I am aware this kind of shit is what reaches the masses, but I don't want to reach masses like this.
Whenever I propose a plan to others, I need to have a) theory of change with world models and base rates and frontier knowledge to break the base rate and so on, b) inspiring stuff like this that is the actual motivation why you are doing the thing (which is not the same as the theory of change)
