Well, they haven't sent in a paramilitary force to slaughter strikers... yet

Yeah, no way Starbucks is anywhere near robber baron Pinkertons era crimes. Fuck ‘em all the same mind you.

Yeah out of all the modern corporations id say the most likely to pull that shit is Amazon. Not to say Starbucks doesnt deserve to have most of its C-suite sacrificed in a blot, but y'know could be worse.

Amazon had a traffic light changed at an intersection where its employees were striking to make it too dangerous to stay there.
