Why would you burn stock? If you're going to spend three billion dollars on something that could potentially net you and the other money pool contributors a profit (even if it is Monsanto stock), why burn it?
well if the idea is to make a statement then profit is not a goal.

I've learned to tolerate drama...except on the boat
I know it sounds really slimy in this context, but it sounds really foolish to throw three billion dollars down the drain. That's more money than most people make in their whole lives, right there!
...of course, I don't know how well owning stock in Monsanto would work when you'd be trying to convince them to, say, stop patenting their crops. I detest Monsanto's patenting of lifeforms as much as any sensible person would, but that serves to maximize profit for them, and that's what Wall Street wants from them.
^^^^ It's not foolish if money just flat out isn't your aim.
That said and @Kexruct i do think it'd make more sense, if, hypothetically, you owned a sizable chunk of stock in Monsanto, to hang onto it and pressure them into improving.
I think that's the most well-known but there are similar books that are...better written I guess is the way to put it, funnily enough?
I recall reading about one in particular. Something like Your Guide To Surviving The Oncoming Termination of Liberties or something similarly unwieldy and doomsdayish

So the stuff that Loompanics and the classifieds in Soldier of Fortune used to supply.
Also, I think the opening paragraph needs some work. I get what you're trying to do, but it feels like you're taking a long time to get to the point.
Personally, I think it would be better to just cut the 'except for one quality/property' bits, make it sound lovely, but keep the last two sentences as they are.
When you're writing in the third person, it's often not necessary to say things like 'Thris thought'. The reader will generally assume any observation, e.g. 'it was a strange look', reflects the character's thoughts.

Legally? Protest. Loudly and often.
But there are books that most places will not sell, and may get you on watchlists.

which, incidentally, includes a lot of bad instructions that are liable to get you killed if you follow them, i gather
it happened to me

That's quite a lot of repetition in such a short space. I suggest reworking it.

It's the subreddit that YOU created!
But I mean, even if r/nonon is a weird reddit, that's still a substantial understatement.
