I'm sure there are terms in the employment contract that Amazon can use to justify firing these employees. And I do agree that the circumstances of condoning activism at Amazon can lead to some very bad places. I also think that there most certainly are actions taken by the employees who were fired that may make the terminations look more justified. Basically - there are parts of the story we are not seeing, context missing.
HOWEVER, that still does not make Amazon right in this. Sure, they followed corporate bylaws and did the things to legally cover their asses, but that doesn't mean they're wearing a white dress here. There are certainly systemic problems within Amazon the lower down the payscale you go, and Amazon trying to silence attempts to bring attention to that is more damning than the problems themselves in my mind.
