It doesn't matter what their argument is, Amazon workers are probably smart enough to realize any anti-union advertising is because unions are good for workers and bad for Amazon.

I can't believe imagine there's a single Amazon worker who thinks Amazon has their best interest at heart or would spend money to save their employees money.

I guess those managers who fight the workers do believe that Amazon has their best interest at heart.

Believe it. I'm sure a factor in where Amazon locates its facilities is union presence and support, along with cost of living and education level. That is to say, lower income areas with an undereducated population and strong anti-labor politics. Obviously not possible in every region but a lot of the US is like a whole other world when you travel just outside the city.

At my FC, I would say 50% at best would even consider the question. MAGA/Trump support runs deep there. Nobody likes the company, yet they will happily take its side over their coworkers...
