    I was wondering how long Bezos would leave them to their devices. He’s been far more cautious about revealing his politics but Amazon’s frothing anti-union subterfuge speaks at least something for itself.

    He’s typically left WaPo alone, so I just wonder whether what’s changed is that Bezos feels the writing is on the wall. Maybe sensing a Trump victory, like the hyper rational alien he is, he decided blocking a Harris endorsement is the right move to position himself best for the post-democracy, oligarchical and fascist America on the horizon.

      He figures that if Trump wins, he will seek retribution, but if Harris wins, she will not seek retaliation at all. Which would you choose, if you had no morals and didn’t mind casual fascism as long as you get to keep your insane wealth?
