    God dammit, I hate this deflection. Oh no, you aren’t hurting the company, your hurting the workers.

    Fuck that noise. If our government was doing its job, it would have protections in place for workers.

      Exactly. When it’s a loss of profit to the top it’s “boo hoo think of the workers.” And when it’s profit in surplus it’s “money for the top no money for the workers sry :)”

      Thankfully many Americans are starting to see the pattern. The programming is insane and it’s a lot for most to break free from.

      Like, you’re exactly right. If you’re worried about labor rights lobby to government for labor rights. Oh what’s that you don’t want that? You just want to guilt Canadians for protecting themselves?

      It’s abuse tactics on an international scale. Fuck these assholes. Leck mich im Arsch.

      One time I saw a commercial where a Hollywood employee was like “when you download movies for free on the internet, you aren’t hurting the big executives, you’re hurting me.” I thought “wow I had no idea. I had no idea you could download movies for free on the internet.”
