"More than 340 tech workers at Amazon used the hashtag #AMZNSpeakOut in public statements that condemn the company for not taking sufficient action on the climate crisis."

340 whole workers?

Total number of amazon employees : 750,000

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amazon_(company)

So 749,660 employees did not protest? Shouldn't that be the real news?

Come on, that's a bit too dramatic. Tech people don't stay unemployed for too long.

Alright, so many downvotes and not a single reasonable critique. I was just saying that those people would very easily find new employment, so saying that they're "risking their livelihood" is far-fetched to say the least.

It's expected in a "brigadable" topic - anything to do with climate change, veganism, china, gender, etc. My original comment was downvoted within a second of being posted. So it couldn't have been a human reading and downvoting.
