Sorry, obviously the public awareness of the people making these decisions is dangerous information.
DAMN YOU ANTHROPOMORPHIZED COMPANY RUN BY NOBODY WHO THEREFORE CAN MAKE SHITTY DECISIONS HIDING BEHIND CAPITALISM!!!
Thank your glorious mods for protecting our corporate overlords.
I'm with you about not anthropomorphizing faceless companies as the bad actors here, but also I really doubt the CEO was the one who enacted this decision. It probably came from some middle manger who clicked "yes" on some report they didn't actually read.

It was a picture of the CEO of Funko captioned with a death threat.
Well, fair enough.
I like the joke, but does this situation really warrant a death sentence?
Of course not. But do people really get to make shitty decisions that impact other people while hiding behind the veil of corporate structure without being directly named and shamed for their decisions?
My only comment here is that I run a small business and decisions can occur that I don't always see up front and with which they negatively impact employees or customers. I also know many large clients where the leadership delegates decisions down to sometimes stupid or misguided staff. The balance here comes to how a leader reacts when they learn of the hurtful actions and is there an opportunity for change.
I think that from your standpoint, the small business owner, it makes sense to do this.
I think the corporate demons pulling the strings of these massive companies love, and I mean love, when people look at them like you.
she also led fulfillment by amazon lol
okay lemme grab my coat
Wow wow wow. Who said anything about death? This clearly calls for a broken leg at most.
But it we take into account the amount of trash they generate...
