I boycott Amazon years ago already, when a warehouse of people died because employees were told that the government's tornado warning was just hyperbole.

Amazon is an evil company that treats its workers like garbage, and practices some of the most vile anti-union practices.

I cancelled my Amazon Prime account and never bought a single item through Amazon anymore. I don't buy anything from Temu either, by the way.

That warehouse disaster was horrible. Those poor souls. May they rest in peace.

I still can't believe Amazon got away with it.

Its gut wrenching. No amount of lawsuit money could give true justice. Lives were taken. You can't give those back.

Change is the only positive outcome, and money to the families sure. But to prevent that horrible atrocity and to give power back to the people. Where they aren't in fear to go home for fear of losing their jobs or what ever the punishment was.
