Stop supporting this fucking company and burn down their warehouses.
Antihuman
So many years without civil war between oligarchs and their slaves (normal human beings) is beyond me
Bread and circus
When I saw this earlier I made this:
Hey Bezos, it’s a-me!
It’s so obvious that the point is the cruelty and control and demoralization, because it is ABSOLUTELY not the most efficient way to work.
Amazon leaves money on the table because it wants to be cruel. Every business does, essentially.
I firmly believe that after a certain amount of money there is no longer “joy” in having money and they all have to find something else to get their fix so to speak.
It just so happens that hurting people (or more accurately, having the power to make people hurt themselves and put themselves through humiliation to please you) is the only thing that they enjoy after they’ve won the money part of life.
Even small businesses do this, owner gets the car they’ve always wanted and then just decides to make everyone that works for them as miserable as possible, even if it costs them more money to do that, because the high from that is WAY better than the money they could otherwise make.
When you recognize how common it is that sociopaths work their way into power, precisely because they get pleasure from controlling and being cruel to others, a lot of how the world is starts to make sense.
I think this is hard for the majority of us to grasp because most of us will never get to that level of success. Capitalism has everyone so focused on getting the money that they can’t even imagine what it would feel like to actually get it.
I mean, the game monopoly taught a handful of generations just how awful people become when they run the game and someone ends up owning everything after controlling the bank and cheating the whole time. By the end of the game everyone else wants to toss the board game into the air or a fire and end it all.
Yeah,they’ve so plenty of money they can use some to keep their employees scared.
Yes Amazon, like most multi-billion dollar corporations, hates you. They hate their customers, they hate their workers, they hate government standing in their way, they hate the planet.
Anazon polices their warehouse force with ruthlessly designed computer programs. It doesn’t matter why you fell behind, they fire them by computer.
It’s not like the government is going to stop them.
Bezos should have write a billion dollar check to every plaintiff.
We workers are alone on the fight against these capitalist ghouls—no judge, politician, or any other ‘leader’ is gonna come to save us. And there’s nothing we can do to win the fight. But there’s one thing we can stop doing—giving them our labour. That’s the only leverage we got. Striking, quitting, not applying for those jobs… yes, I know many people aren’t in a position where that’s an option, I myself have worked delivering for Amazon (and it’s not even in my top 5 worst jobs), but if you can’t afford to quit a shitty job at an Amazon warehouse you can’t afford to be having a baby, either.
Having a baby is not necessarily a choice in America in 2026.
This is why I cancelled my Amazon and routinely avoid buying from them.
I had a £5 Amazon voucher from my last job and I haven’t used Amazon for long enough now that looking at their site… There isn’t really anything I want.
Also £5 just covers the delivery fee, so wtf is even the point?
My phone broke and I got locked out of all my corporate accounts, from google to other emails, to those cash paying apps (that are refusing to give me another way to get my money, they are just planning on stealing it from me,) to my Amazon account.
I tried opening a new one and they wouldn’t let me. Good riddance. I wanted to ditch those parasites anyway. Now all I need is a smart phone running graphene or something, and open source on my computers.
pregnancy-related hospitalization
How much does anyone want to bet that this was for going to the hospital to give birth?
Given how they were treated before, more likely a miscarriage or complications early on.
Absolutely brutal.
