"Washington DC is suing Amazon for not delivering fast enough to low-income neighborhoods.
You can't make this stuff up. Amazon is an oppressor that destroys communities. It is also an oppressor of people of color if it doesn't provide them enough Amazon services. Why not let them be free of the horrors of two-day shipping?
The problem was that Amazon used its own drivers for wealthier areas, but relied on the post office for poorer areas. They oppressed local communities by forcing them to use government services!
Amazon notes that they stopped sending their own drivers to certain neighborhoods because they are too dangerous.
This is what parasitic government looks like. Let crime be out of control. Have terrible services. A corporation comes along that nonetheless through a miracle of logistics bring goods to the doorstops of a community that government has failed in every way, sue it for not being fast enough relative to some other community without the same problems.
What a disgrace."
