@Kadsenchaos @aral They don't, of course.
Companies like this donate to all kinds of politicians: you could write an article like this from pretty much any political position, breathlessly claiming that Amazon etc support the other side of my favorite issue. It's misleading to the point of dishonesty; a garbage article that inspires outrage for clicks.
Why do they donate to all kinds of politicians? I guess to keep a "seat at the table", i.e. get their ear when some issue important to them (net neutrality or AI regulation or whatever) comes up. Hate the game not the player? I don't know.
@ech @Kadsenchaos Man, the way you’re defending them, you’d think you work at Google or something, Erik.
@aral @Kadsenchaos heh. I was very careful to only comment on Amazon's political activities.
