    No one is complaining about working conditions for the sake of it. There’s literally nowhere else to go for them. You are not helping anyone but the rich fucks by having them replaced by robots.

      BS. I live in a town with an Amazon warehouse. There’s PLENTY of places for them to go. Hell, I’m hiring.
