That's great Jeff, now raise your worker's wages and stop shamelessly exploiting them, and people might finally respect you.

When will a “conservative” donate hundreds of millions to charity instead of gifting it to their children?

I wonder when will the richest liberal in the world pay his employees and make their lives better? You know, the very people that work long hours and do everything they can to send us our packages everywhere in the world.

The way he treats his worker makes him anything but a liberal.

He must want something he can’t buy. Maybe a “Bezos in Space” display without any mention of Branson.

Yeah, seems he could actually pay his workers correctly and treat them well instead of giving away money to "causes" to virtue signal.

But hes a liberal, so there is that.

But he is, self defines himself as a liberal and owns the most liberal newspaper in the country. Doesn’t get any more liberal than that.

Hyperbole much? If you think the Washington Post is "the most liberal newspaper in the country", you're gonna have a heart attack when you open the New Yorker or Mother Jones.

Doesn’t get any more liberal than that.

The way he treats his workers makes him anything but a liberal. I don't know how I can make it more clearer to you. Bill Cosby calling himself a feminist does not make him a feminist at all. Jeff Bezos calling himself a liberal does not make him a liberal at all.

lol Really? Have you not heard anything about unionizing efforts in Alabama? You've seriously not heard about the Covid infections and squalid working conditions in distribution centers.

Bezos may be a "liberal," but I find the fact he has $200 million to just give away problematic.

there is no "self made"- "You didnt build that".

without the government funded infrastructure his business cant operate.

Did you already forget that fine liberal narrative about all that which was being pushed so hard here just days ago?

I have.

Because of him doing that, another poster claims its proof Bezos can NOT be called a "liberal".

hilarious.

who is under "investigation" for giving more than they were supposedly allowed to? "fringe benefits" right?

And who is being criticized for not even paying enough for his employees to survive and not even giving benefits of "humanity" to workers (peeing in a bottle) ?

Bad comparison for you.

How do Bezos rates of pay compare with Trump's rates of pay?

Black: who is under "investigation" for giving more than they were supposedly allowed to? "fringe benefits" right?

There was no limit on how much Trump could pay. The issue was the tax scam that will rightfully put yet another Trump partner behind bars like so many others.

As for Bezos, he does run Amazon in an inclusive and environmentally friendly way. His problem is that he sees lower level workers as nothing but disposable robots. Some of the stories are horrific.
