Just vote with your dollar, unethical companies always lose market competition ☝️🤓

I think you forgot the /s , because real life shows that unethical companies rarely lose market competition. See pretty much every oil company, facebook, microsoft, amazon...

I've literally put "☝️🤓" in the end though... Can't get more sarcastic than that

Guess I'm too old, I wasn't aware that emoji combo also acted as a sarcasm warning

No worries!☝️🤓 usually signifies a pick-me idiot who thinks they're the smartest in the room, it's usually used sarcastically to present a common but idiotic opinion. Emoji combination shows them at the moment of going "Uhm, akshually!!"
