The corporate giant feared a ‘breakthrough’ after Quebec workers unionized and were set to secure the first collective agreement in the world

The rich love convincing themselves (and the general population) that the working class and therefore society at large depends entirely on them and on their gracious “job creating” generosity to not only survive, but exist.

In reality it is the exact opposite that is true - without the workers to exploit, they are nothing, and if the workers of the world unite, we can get rid of them, and their oppressive systems, for good.

Imagine the shock and awe they would experience when that finally happens.

The average business owner maybe, but I think by the time you get to Jeff Bezos levels of avarice he knows he’s not on the side of good.

Lmfao, you seriously underestimate the cognitive dissonance it takes to function at that level. If anything, he’s probably even more convinced that he is the saviour of humanity than some random business owner.

Yeah, rich people tend to think that they’re good, skilled, smart (and not exceptionally lucky) people.

They worked hard because they wanted to support their families. They give their families good lives. They helped many other people get wealthy. They pay shareholders (aka. other wealthy people) and workers (aka. people who don’t work as hard as them). They pay their taxes accountants. They’re so giving!

So giving! And so honest, which is why you guys know exactly how they think. They’re happy to tell us all about it.
