I report the ads every time I see them as "Dangerous or extremist organizations". It gets rejected every time but it makes me feel a little less sad.

I report them too. I don’t want this shit advertised to me.

Don't report. Click, but don't engage otherwise. The reports will always fail, but the ad view won't cost them as much.

Every click costs more money than a view, drives up their overall ad rate, and gives them false statistics on who's interested and how many people are interested, which only makes ad targeting harder and internal analysis more difficult.

Also, obligatory AdNauseam mention. (note that this can be less privacy-preserving than using an adblocker on its own, as it still could allow ad networks to fingerprint you across sites. It obfuscates ad interests and generates fake ad clicks to drive up advertising costs for advertisers that don't respect the Do Not Track opt-out standard. It can't hide you entirely from the ad networks themselves.)

I also get a little less sad when I make a poor indian dude click a "clear violations" button once a day

No. You don't op.
You need to go to their datacenters and burn them down. And then free people in deathcamps. Then you can grow food together to thrive.

How to burn down datacenters if they’re made of concrete? Asking for an (anarchist) friend

1

Cut the water supplies. The heat created by DCs should be enough to cook itself.
You can also create a short circuit between exposed cables, that should chain react throughout the whole datacenter.
Entering should be easy if you're there for maintenance.
