At this point is anyone surprised at what Amazon will do to the plebeian workers that fuel them?

Lets wait and see why the pilot who overshot the runway didn't do a go-around instead of attempting to land, pressuring airplane pilots would certainly take them to another level in my eyes.

		The pilots have union supposedly. I wonder if AMZN was able to break through here. May be it was "positive" pressure - i.e. bonuses for saving fuel/time/etc.

		Another level, yes, but not a surprising one.

At this point, do people prefer to accept a claim in a lawsuit as the truth if it happens to conform to their model of reality?

When the claim is entirely expected and unsurprising due to being backed by a laundry list of historical similar offenses 5 miles long, yes.

		If you take the time to really think through the implications of that viewpoint, you might be horrified by the outputs you get.

So much of social media (low voted submissions here too) boils down to people fighting over ideological symbols or trying to hear a series of appropriate echoes. If you support the suit you probably "hate Amazon" and if you don't "You're a bootlicker".

The idea that you could not support Amazon or their practices, but also not take this lawsuit as some grand symbol of everything wrong with Amazon and the world is nuance most find repellent online, and increasingly offline.

When it comes to a company known to hire union-busters rather than deal with a burgeoning union in good faith? Yes. Yes they do.
