Yes. My point is not that violence is counterproductive, it’s that random, atomized violence is.

Organized violence with modern surveillance techniques is virtually impossible. Do you think if enough lone wolves start feeling like CEO's are not great people that would have effect, or do you think it would require a fully underground organized group?

No it isn't. Why would it be? Organized violence happens every day.
