Here is an article describing a strike on > May 1st this year: > https://www.wired.com/story/amazon-instacart-target-coronavirus-may-day-strike/ I condemn Amazon for mistreating its workers, and I said so on my personal site. I state views on many political issues. But the FSF, and the GNU Project, limit their political positions to very few issues. It is neutral on all other issues. That strike is outside our domain of having views. If Amazon treated its workers decently, I would still condemn Amazon and urge people not to do business with it, for a host of other reasons. See stallman.org/amazon.html for a list, if you have time on your hands. -- Dr Richard Stallman Chief GNUisance of the GNU Project (https://gnu.org) Founder, Free Software Foundation (https://fsf.org) Internet Hall-of-Famer (https://internethalloffame.org)
