      Is This the Turning Point in the Fight Against Amazon?

      The holiday shopping frenzy took on a wild twist at a Robbinson, New Jersey, Amazon fulfillment center when a robot—one of an army of mechanized warehouse assistants—accidentally ruptured a can of bear repellent and ended up putting 24 employees in the hospital, with one worker in critical condition, and 54 others requiring emergency treatment for the toxic exposures. Getting gassed on the job might be a freak accident, but labor advocates say the retail giant’s everyday working conditions are enough to drive many to tears.

      I wish the press would stop bowing to Bezos and calling warehouses with no central heat or air-conditioning "fulfillment centers."

      All they fulfill is Bezos’ insatiable demand for profits.

      Too early to declare

      even declare the end of the beginning especially with the present brood of crooks at the helm of both the political parties. Just like declaring victory against the neolibs when AOC got elected is leading us nowhere.

      Never expect different result by following the previous steps
