Exactly, it's like people are addicted to Amazon, like they need therapy to get out of an addiction.
Amazon sucks, it's a toxic company, just don't do it!

Its sur... ok its not that surprising to me that so many people shop with a company that is so terrible to its workers and for the climate.

hey, its €2 cheaper on amazon, what do I care if their workers aren't allowed to unionize

It’s basically like taking that €2 out of the pocket of a worker, essentially.
