These people are forced to accept inhumane treatment (namely: workloads so large they have to abnegate basic bodily functions) because the alternative is homelessness and hunger.
If that doesn't qualify as coercion, I don't know what does.
I'm frankly astounded that you would pretend not to understand this.
- sneak 6y agoThe alternative is finding another job. People who work at Amazon (they're not the only game in town) voluntarily choose to work there because they have decided that working there is a better option for them, in their opinion, than any other job they might be able to obtain. It's not "dehumanization xor starvation"; if it were then it would rightfully be called coercive or "forced". It's not, because there are lots and lots and lots and lots of unskilled jobs that are almost always available.
