Nazis abound. I wonder how many 401k and mutual fund investors would be horrified if they knew they were invested in these?

Say I find out my 401k is investing in this. What do I do to get out of the situation? Would I have to completely stop contributing to it (and lose employer matching) or something else?
I do have a 401k but before that I really loved investing on my own and avoiding this stuff. I wish I could have them dump the funds into my own account but obviously that’s not possible.
