Jeff Bezos "Amazon refuting mail-in voting by employees for unionization

[Hey Yo]

Jeff Bezos — a strong Democratic supporter — and Amazon are aiming to postpone a unionization vote at one of its warehouses in Alabama, the Wall Street Journal reports. Interestingly, Amazon has requested that the National Labor Relations Board reconsider allowing mail-in voting, claiming that the mail-in voting process has “serious and systemic flaws.”

Got that? Bezos and Amazon are doing all they can to prevent any shady activity when workers cast their ballots for unionization, and they are particularly concerned about the integrity of mail-in ballots.

You are likely trying to figure out how that adds up, right? The Washington Post, owned by Bezos, called any claims of mail-in voter fraud by Donald Trump and his supporters dangerous and inexcusable. Amazon even banned Parler from its servers, in part to ensure no one could claim voter fraud occurred from mail-in ballots back in November.

But stop trying to make it make sense. It is not supposed to add up.

In this case, mail-in voting is disadvantageous for Bezos and his e-commerce behemoth. Therefore, they now consider mail-in voting seriously flawed.

An Amazon spokesperson tells CNN the company is seeking a “valid, fair and successful election” and suggests that only in-person voting can ensure that. Hmm, interesting perspective.

Amazon has, thus far, fended off unions in the United States. If a majority of ballots vote in favor of unionization, hourly Amazon workers would send an L right up to Bezos’ office.

Bamazonunion.com explains that a union at Amazon would “give us the right to collectively bargain over our working conditions including items such as safety standards, training, breaks, pay, benefits, and other important issues that would make our workplace better.”

The NLRB says, “A mail ballot election will enfranchise employees who cannot enter the voting location for health reasons or due to positive COVID tests.” Fearing an unfavorable outcome, however, Amazon now insists that current COVID outbreaks aren’t dangerous enough to warrant this NLRB decision.

Amazon says that Lisa Henderson, NLRB’s Acting Regional Director “reached the remarkable conclusion that any level of infection or potential infection among employees counts as an ‘outbreak.'” Only 218 people employees, 2.88%, at its Bessemer facility tested positive during the 14-day period ending on January 7, which Amazon does not consider an “outbreak” apparently. This is quite the change of perspective. Imagine the coverage from the Washington Post if similar questions had been asked before November.

Mail-in voting has never been about the health of Americans or ensuring that each voice counts. As always, our country’s most powerful figures in both Washington and Silicon Valley base their opinions solely on the outcomes that increase their own power, finances, and flexibility.

Hypocritical, but sadly, all too predictable.

Bezos could end world hunger and chooses not to. What a ****ing psycho. **** him.

:roll:

Paging bladefd, it’s your turn to swallow this huge turd and tell us how good it is.

[warriorfan]

Bezos could end world hunger and chooses not to. What a ****ing psycho. **** him.

You could get a job and donate it all to a local food bank. Or make hundreds of sandwiches and pass them out to the homeless in your area.

Nothing is stopping you.

[Real Men Wear Green]

Bezos only cares about his profits. Him taking this stance isn't surprising.

[Derka]

Bezos can get f*cked.

[Pushxx]

Hating Bezos is absurd. This guy has made the lives of billions better. You're just a hater. Capitalism leads to personal freedom, personal independence, prosperity, PROGRESS, competition, quality, and innovation.

Almost all significant innovation of the last 250 years has happened in America. Why? INCENTIVE AND LIBERTY TO DO SO

[tpols]

Yup... blatant hypocrisy. It's ok for a ****ing presidential election but not OK for Amazon's employees.

Some, but not almost all.

[Overdrive]

Bezos just doesn't want unions. Also electronic validation systems cost quite some money.

And how is not letting people voting by mail going to help him achieve his goal of not having his workers unionize?

Bezos could end world hunger AND not affect his lifestyle or finances to have a harder life whatsoever.

You can't compare ordinary people's spending to billionaires' spending.

Why. So you will remain on unemployment for even longer?

Just Bezos being paranoid. He wants to be the first trillionaire and is willing to do anything to get there. He knows he would lose the vote if it was accessible for every employee with mail-in-ballots and is trying to do anything he can to hold onto power including getting the courts involved to stop the vote/make it tougher. Sound familiar?

Don’t tell people to do things you arnt willing to do yourself. RRR3 doesn’t want to spend any of his time and energy helping out people less fortunate than him....So why does he want to condemn others for doing the same?

Homeless such as yourself? Ah ok!

You are going to die alone.

The day is coming lil boy.

Enjoy every day you have spamming the forum with nonsense while doing nothing with your pitiful life. With everyday you march closer to a sad and lonely death. No one around. No family. No friends. Laying there in some dirty hospice as you wonder why you wasted away your entire life.

Good luck with that.

I'm a staunch believer in capitalism, but Amazon is way too big, it's a monopoly and has become wayyy too powerful and the regular idiots way too dependent on them. There's supposed to be anti trust laws

Amazon is more powerful than most small, poor countries and they wield far too much influence, which includes something like their monopoly over cloud computing,

Really? Kewl story bruh

[Horatio33]

The real idiots here are the people who are working class or lower middle class workers and they defend Bezos, Musk, Trump etc. People who treat you with contempt and treat you like statistics on a page. Keep licking the boot lads.
