Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez certainly seems to be doing a whole lot of damage control around Amazon since she was cheering the loss of thousands of jobs for New York City. Yeah, that seems like a strange thing for an elected official to cheer, considering the small tax break Amazon requested would have produced FAR MORE in state income tax for the thousands of New Yorkers who worked there but it is AOC we’re talking about here so … eh.
Amazon touting “jobs” (has anyone fact-checked where this 25k number even came from? How many were promised to be local hires?)
…but they refused to even consider hiring union when we insisted labor be part of the conversation.
Union jobs are a key ladder to the middle class. https://t.co/HefYzOBhyG

Oh, so it’s a union thing.
Not a tax thing?
Someone is moving the goalposts …
Chad Felix Greene responded:
Amazon is a strict performance-heavy organizational structure demanding higher and higher performance goals at every level of the company from seasonal frontline customer service to the VP's.
Union culture conflicts too strongly. https://t.co/wl577a6YTM

Truth.
Unions protect employees who do not perform as well and a company like Amazon can’t afford that BS. Not to mention unions are freakin’ vultures who rob from employees to line their own pockets while pretending they actually care about them.
But we digress.
AOC decided to quote-tweet Chad, which was her way of setting him up for a world of hurt, aka targeted harassment. She had to know that tweeting him in this way to her millions of followers would only get him attacked since she’s super Twitter savvy and stuff.

Is that culture of “strict performance” why Amazon workers have to urinate in bottles & work while on food stamps to meet “targets?”
“Performance” shouldn’t come at the cost of dehumanizing conditions.
That’s why we got rid of sweatshops.https://t.co/pV52uLVPcw https://t.co/lRUWvK7Igc

So basically she makes it look like Chad wants workers to be in a bad environment … classy, right?
Then she tweeted this.
Come for me all you want, but my job is to make sure that people are protected in society.
Someone’s got to look out for the people our system is leaving behind – esp now, when most of the wealth created is going to fewer people, those left behind are the majority of Americans.

Come at you? ROFL!
What is this, high school?
REMEMBER, this is an elected official behaving this way.
I didn't 'come for you' Alexandria, I agreed with you. ? https://t.co/7RMv3MqVjZ

And you guys, you should SEE Chad’s timeline.
Holy crap.
It wasn't an argument at all.
I simply stated an observation. https://t.co/MbUdmFxIfe— Chad Felix Greene (@chadfelixg) February 15, 2019
It is a fact and an observation.
There is nothing to 'back-pedal' over. Lol.I haven't disagreed with anyone so far. ? https://t.co/e9G5M0EdEv
— Chad Felix Greene (@chadfelixg) February 15, 2019
How wrong I am about what?
What do you think I said exactly?
I'm curious. https://t.co/F6JWgbkWCz— Chad Felix Greene (@chadfelixg) February 15, 2019
Dude’s name is ‘LeftistCannibal.’
We don’t wanna know.
Screwed up how?
So far the only thing people have argued against is something I never argued for. ? https://t.co/jQGdwns74F— Chad Felix Greene (@chadfelixg) February 15, 2019
That’s what they always do, they argue against a point you didn’t even make because they can’t argue the actual point.
True story.
Liberals are fun.
AOC: Amazon refused to consider unions and so workers protested.
Me: Yes. Amazon is so obsessed with performance metrics and escalating performance, union culture would not work there.
AOC's followers: GAAAH BOOT LICKING UNION HATING POOR HATING RICH BASTARD

Sums it up … but there is a whole lot more.
We told you, this is nuts.
I do not believe membership in Valerie Solanas' 'Society for Cutting Up Men' is in my best interest, thanks. https://t.co/N6EsJwSMVz

Chad really should feel upset since a person calling themselves, ‘fat wave’ thinks he’s scum.
Who are these people?
Heh.
— Chad Felix Greene (@chadfelixg) February 15, 2019
Lot’s of stupid AND angry on Chad’s timeline but this guy takes the cake.
chad here on the other hand writes for the federalist where lower and lower performance goals are rewarded via the "the more you point out I'm stupid the more it means I'm smart" system https://t.co/q94UKcCG6S

We could probably say the same back to him … doncha think?
I am.
Very amusing to see people so outraged that I agree with them and support their position.What do you think I advocated for/against? ☕ https://t.co/OuWVirzvf3

Rack what?
Man, Twitter will give any Trump-hating idjit a blue check.
So you have no idea what you actually oppose but still want to feel all hatey.
— Chad Felix Greene (@chadfelixg) February 15, 2019
‘All hatey’ is their normal, natural state.
Don’t try to understand it.
