"This day of action grows every year because the movement to hold Amazon accountable keeps getting bigger and stronger," said the head of UNI Global Union.
Just cut out the fluff and say you’re an asshole who only cares about yourself.
Amazon workers are suppose to kiss Jeff Bezos ass because ppl are starving to death elsewhere? I’ve heard of boot licking but this is spreading your cheeks so you can take boot straight up the asshole
I thought it was a troll account at first, but it appears to be a legitimate user on closer inspection. They have some real shitty police bootlicking takes, but as they claim to be a white male in their sixties, that’s not too unexpected for someone who is out of touch with problems that don’t affect them personally. They have posted some strong support of the queer community before, and claim to be gay themselves, so perhaps they have enough empathy left to come around on this issue if someone has a thorough explainer on white privilege, late stage capitalism, and systemic racism.
It’s gonna need to be someone more patient than me though. Good luck @tygerprints
And this selfish, self-centered, thinking is exactly why everyone is fucked, including my gene entire pool and yours. But hey, you “got yours”.
This “capitalistic society” is and always has been unsustainable. Any elementary school student can look at the system and say, “how can something grow forever? That doesn’t make sense”. And you explain, “it can’t, but there is something that grows forever in nature; it’s called cancer. And it kills the organism.”
People like you that have been thoroughly indoctrinated by a capitalist society are big part of the problem that is a capitalist society. It’s good to be grateful for what we have, but we should never so complacently accept meager scraps or delude ourselves into thinking that it’s an acceptable reward for our labor.
You just don’t realize how good we have it here, even if it means we have to work hard sometimes and get up early and spend five days a work working for someone else. That’s an opportunity millions of other humans can only dream of having.
Do you ever reflect on the fact that “we” have it good “here” because other people are suffering?
We are incredibly fortunate, but it comes at a serious cost. The cheap electronics and clothing and tchotchkes we drown ourselves in is made on the backs of folks less fortunate (not to mention the biosphere as a whole). We didn’t sign up to be on the side of exploitation, and we don’t want to live in ignorance of what supports our way of life.
There’s a big difference between a bigger slice of the pie and taking all of the pies and making everybody share the crumbs. It’s an incomprehensible wealth disparity.
If you think unions are “kicking their employers in the teeth demanding pay equal to the CEO,” I can see why you think the way you do. Trouble is, you’re fucking wrong
I think you and I and everyone should try to do something nice for our employers like giving them back our sick days and maybe taking a 40% pay cut. That way we can be sure we are doing our part so the owners and investors can get richer faster. And it’ll feel good too.

Wow, never thought I’d see someone literally say “fuck you, got mine”.

^ Don’t feed the trolls. It only makes them stronger.
Yeah that one comes up with some doozies.
