Bad for whom? Bezos is a multibillionaire, his problems are not our problems. It’s detached from reality to think a guy that made his fortune exploiting workers and other businesses in any way understands or cares for society’s struggles.

Either way, that’s not what matters despite you deciding to focus on it. The main point is that “Bezos is a multibillionaire, his problems are not our problems”. > That's what Marx thought, and it's precisely where he went wrong. This too, is nonsensical and irrelevant. Marx had exactly zero commentary on Amazon practices, because he died in the nineteenth century.
