NPCs Decry Benzos' Removal Of "LGBTQ+ Rights" And "Equality For Black People" From Amazon's Policies

https://old.reddit.com/r/worldnews/comments/1i8t4ds/bezos_deletes_lgbtq_rights_and_equity_for_black/?sort=controversial

								

								

Amazon has recently made several major internal changes, including removing statements advocating for LGBTQ rights and racial equity from its public listing of corporate policies. This is a bold move for the second-largest employer in the world, which also just announced a documentary with First Lady Melania Trump.

The deletion of previous statements pledging to commit to "equity for Black people" and "LGBTQ+ rights" were removed from a page on the company's website in December, as were any mentions of the word "transgender," according to The Washington Post.

so, it means, those were all hypocrisy until their true colors get validated.

for bad people to boldly declare their "badness" and encourage it, put the world in scary situation

advocating equality is all hypocrisy coz in real life, there are still more people who discriminate people who are different from them. they just wear masks and hide behind silence. but once people like trump, musk, bezos openly show cruelty, others feel embolden to assert the same cruelty to those they discriminate.

i always remember what Gov of Illinois Pritzker said about how to spot an idiot:

Illinois Gov. Pritzker 🗣️: "'The best way to spot an idiot, look for the person who is cruel... In order to be kind, we have to shut down that animal instinct and force our brain to travel a different pathway.

Empathy and compassion are evolved states of being. They require the mental capacity to step past our most primal urges. Empathy and kindness are considered weak. Many important people look at the vulnerable only as rungs on a ladder to the top. I'm here to tell you that when someone's path through this world is marked with acts of cruelty, they have failed the first test of an advanced society. They never forced their animal brain to evolve past its first instinct. They never forged new mental pathways to overcome their own instinctual fears. And so their thinking and problem solving will lack the imagination and creativity that the kindest people have in spades. Over my many years in politics and business, I have found one thing to be universally true. The kindest person in the room is often the smartest."
