Poll of the Day > So Jeff Bezos opposes using mail in voting for the union election.

(+) Yeah! (+)

Lmfao. What a hypocrite. This guy who had his newspaper all this past year defend and champion mail in voting suddenly has an issue with it when it involves him. Also isnt it surprising how none of the main news outlet are talking about this? I guess it doesnt fit their narrative as the US becomes more and more like China with its news censorship.

Rules for thee, but not for me, lad.

Only political elite are allowed to use mail in voting.

Not really sure what youre trying to say because this isnt a conspiracy, its a real thing that Bezos doesnt want his employees using mail in voting when it comes to voting on a union. Also I think people misunderstand the whole fraud or invalid aspect when some of these people complain about mail in voting. Mail in voting within itself is completely legitimate and in fact a lot easier to do and get a larger majority of the voting population to participate in. The problem lies with individuals manipulating how people vote or trying to control how they vote through peer pressure and manipulation. When youre in a voting booth, you have no one looking over your shoulder making sure you vote the right way. With mail in that isnt always the case, and an individual can be pressured or persuaded to vote a certain way in which they wouldnt necessarily if someone wasnt watching over them. That aside, I do believe mail in voting will be part of the new normal moving forward, and some of you hyper leftist need to appreciate and condemn the hypocrisy many of the heads of your party display.

Billionaire Bezos has double standards when it comes to protecting his own interests?! Shocking! The current second richest man in the world is a hypocritical scumbag? Call me surprised!! I bet next you're going to tell me that the vast majority of politicians are greedy liars beholden to the corrupt corporate entities that line their pockets. That'd be crazy, right?!!

I know, right? Maybe you should tell that to all these Biden lovers who act like a career politician is the second coming of Jesus.

I don't think anyone's that excited for Biden. Just to not have Trump in there anymore.

TC is always outraged lol

The kicker is Amazon is probably the company that most needs a union right now. My approach is generally "fuck unions," but the company literally has people dropping dead on its floor and employees are told to work around the body.

PotD is strangely (or not so strangely) silent about a lot of Biden controversies, like #BidenErasedWomen. Like I've been saying, the board's political "wokeness" only pertained to Trump.

WaPo has factually excellent reporting, has been critical of Bezos at times, and always discloses that WaPo is owned by him when discussing Amazon. Editors have stated that him owning the paper doesn't influence the direction of the news; doesn't choose which stories are ran or not in the paper.

Amazon has a union now? Since when?

They're voting on whether to go union or not, so no, they don't have a union but might soon

So that explains the forced physical votes.

Makes me wonder why the bent to Bernie's "Stop Jeff Bezos" $15 wage act. Probably just fear, they don't seem to care about human life.

Now try saying that without laughing. WaPo does the barest minimum when it comes to criticizing their daddy and these days is more of Jeff Bezos's personal Super-PAC than a legitimate journalist organization.

That must be because Biden is not president... Xi makes the shots, and Harris executes them. Americans are paying the price.

That sounds like a load of bullshit.
