Union jobs for everyone...except us.

Some workers in Amazon’s Bessemer, Ala., warehouse complain that the company’s aggressive performance expectations leave them little time to take bathroom breaks.

The stakes couldn’t be higher for Amazon, which is fighting the biggest labor battle in its history on U.S. soil. Next Monday, the National Labor Relations Board will mail ballots to 5,805 workers.

Wait, aren't libs all about "a living wage" and "fairness" for workers?

Will Amazon allow Dominion machines to count the ballots?

 

[Moonglow]

Will Amazon allow Dominion machines to count the ballots?

Will Amazon allow Republican watchers to stand with in six feet to watch the counting?

 

[CrusaderFrank]

Will Amazon boot Unions from their servers too? I mean, it's like Parler, amiright?

Amazon Fights Against Mail-In Voting in Union Decision to Preserve 'Vote Fidelity'

E-commerce giant Amazon is reportedly seeking to postpone a unionization vote at a warehouse in Alabama and is fighting back against federal labor authorities' decision to allow mail-in voting. Amazon claims it has created a "safe, confidential and convenient proposal for associates to vote...

since when does corporate america represent the left?

Any other delusions?

Like thinking MSNBC represents the left. They reprsent something partisan but GE ain't representing the left.

Pro tip to anyone thinking some massive corporation is left leaning, it's not and that argument doesn't work. Absurd on the face of it

Jeff bezos king of predatory business practices is not some secret socialist lol

They were openly libertarian until very recently

The people they hire to moderate are certainly left leaning. MSNBC is filled with left leaning individuals too, but they're still owned by GE.

But yea at their core these are libertarian and capitalist institutions. Although twitter doesn't make any money so maybe they sort of straddle the line

Google and facebook would not be doing any of this unless they felt they needed to protect profits. They resisted it for years and years.

Don't worry profit motive will bring them back in line. Youtube as an obvious example where all this moderation hurts. It's a shell of it's former self.

No they just reacted in a way that made sense. If you live in communist china as a capitalist you still have to follow the CCP's rules. Same in the US.

Twitter's moves IMO were again sort of straddling the line. I don't see how their movees could possibly be seen as being guided by fiduciary responsibility.

Facebook and zuckerberg are your worst case here. They purposely outsource anything partisan. Very libertarian in 2021 they still want to be neutral and won't let anyone in house take blame for this.

Google is so massive who knows what they think, but certainly what they've done was in response to political threats from within and without not ideological need. This has hurt their bottom line and they know it.

I'll agree with you on twitter but again I think they're just incompetent....Dorsey seems to believe in some sort of libertarian view on this but just doesn't have the balls to implement it. Maybe his employees revolted i don't know.

Well... There was the Gillette debacle. The Parler thing was already brought up. Youtube has been demonetizing conservative channels for a good while now...

Have you looked into what they are trying to do with Comics? They literally named two heroes "Snowflake" and "Safespace"... I'm sure they could have gotten that kind of thing to work, if they would have gotten people to write it, and draw it, that actually LIKED comics. They wanted to show they were a progressive company and hired people based on gender and policy, rather than skills. I haven't heard about it in a while, perhaps they let it go as a failure.

I absolutely agree that it used to be. Not so much anymore.

Jeff bezos king of predatory business practices is not some secret socialist lol

I agree with that statement... But... There is mounting evidence that there are social/political pressures on these companies. You know... Given that it's not making them money, yet they are still trying to make social/political statements within their businesses.

Of course we are. We will support unionizing Amazon. Your side are the union busters. We will support anti monopoly laws also. I sure as hell am not an Amazon fan, they are putting retail stores out of business. Soon we will not be able to try,feel, or see any damn thing before purchasing. Not a big fan of Walmart either. Millions of workers work over time for those idiots and still don't make a living wage. Put your money where your mouth is support unions and anti monopoly laws till then shut the fuck up.

You're combining so many things there.

No Disney (who owns marvel) is still capitalist , not left leaning. They're out of the niche business they don't give a fuck about old comic book fans anymore. They have to justify the billions they paid. Comics don't matter that is all to set up other properties and use to test story lines now. They aren't important to Disney's portfolio.

Gillet made a massive mistake, and walked it back, because they're capitalists and wanted to make money. They were doing that for money, not left leaning

All they are doing is signalling left cultural signals to protect their bottom line. They have a fiduciary responsibility. The system works.

THe difference is both employees and customers are changing their calculus on what they should do to best maximize returns. It's all still in the pursuit of profit tho.

No one who is in it purely for profit represents the left. Antithetical

WTF does parlor have to do with unions. Hillarious. Filled with millions if union busters other than that nothing

Has nothing to do with unions itself. It's an interesting point if Amazon should have the ability to do the same kind of thing to unions that it did to Parler. Would you support that?

You think they DON'T want to make a new cast of super heroes to make movies about? It STARTED with comic books. It's the market research of what will and won't work. So... Yes. They are trying out properties, and finding out they are failing.

The thing is... I have no idea what information they had that they thought it would work. I can only assume it was based on pressures from... Somewhere. Sure as hell wasn't from the base of people that are buying their products. They act as if they have no idea who their customers are.

Disney can make their own characters. They bought the old ones

The rest is just junk

There is no money in comics relative to the movies, TV shows, and video games

And new characters have no value. It will take generations to make them as profitable as something like spiderman.
