Amazon pays me SO LITTLE I can BARELY Squeak by! And that’s why UNIONS are bad!
Hey guys, listen up. The scraps Amazon is giving me are insufficient to make ends meet. UNIONS ARE THE PROBLEM!
Yeah, imagine being paid so poorly that union dues are a hardship. Maybe you could use a union there, pals.
Jesus, when you put it like that, even if Darla isn’t a robot or a paid astroturfer, she’s still making the case for unions.
Yeah the argument itself is so transparently dumb that no legitimate person would hold it; and I think the dunk tweet is pointing out that in addition to having no good argument, Amazon thinks we’re too stupid to notice the astroturf.
There are people who genuinely believe this, sadly. I’ve encountered them here where I live in South Dakota where we’re propagandized against unions from a very young age. These are people who would easily fall for obvious astroturfing like Darla above. It’s one reason I think basic tech and media literacy are so important.
As a gay black man…
This year because I’m a union member I get 3 paid sick days and a personal day extra, which would pay for my dues for the year twice.
Even the PFP is so obviously generated by thispersondoesnotexist.com lol
My union dues are 1/52 of my yearly pay. I make $25.77 an hour in an entry level job with no education requirements. Minimum wage here is $16.55 an hour.
You could have made -34.5% more without an union
