This is clearly just wishful thinking by the article author. Jeff Bezos would show himself to be a coward by... Not doing something he wasn't planning on doing in the first place?
- richardwhiuk 1y agoTemu are already doing this. It's interesting that the US are punishing their own businesses to make them less competitive.
- ipsum2 1y agoThe fact that this argument is made by the editor in chief of The Verge really shows that logic is not priority for their journal.
- ashwoods 1y agoMy take from the article isn’t that it’s really expected from Amazon. It’s calling out the hypocrisy of what Jeff has done at the Post.
- verdverm 1y agoThat is not the argument the author is making. Bezos recently said the WaPo opinion section would focus on "personal liberties and free markets", yet with Amazon he is not doing this. If Bezos cares about free markets so much, he would be fighting the tariffs rather than cozying up to a wanna be dictator. If Bezos actually believed in personal liberties, he would state that the White House has no business in commenting on how prices are displayed at their business. "oligarchy" is increasing in word usage for a reason
