      Yes instead of assigning blame where it belongs (who keeps wages so low necessitating the gig economy?), they decided to blame the consumer.

      People that are stuck being reliant on gig jobs like doordash would be rather unhappy and become rapidly poorer if people decided to stop using these apps. But that’s what always happens. If buisness collapses the worker suffers and the CEO walks away rich.

      OP really decided to make a class issue all about race

        This is the redo of the rich person with all the cookies and two poor people fighting over one at the table. Except this person fell for being one of the poor people.

        Sounds like one of those pro sweatshop arguments. The kids wouldn’t have jobs!!!

        I just copied this meme from reddit, I actually didn’t want to make it about race. Buuuut, there’s a lot of minorities doing the shit jobs, right? Curious

          Wait I thought you were shot? Makes sense you’d come back from the dead just to start race baiting bullshit again

          The right wing is full shit almost always, especially when they bring up ViRtUe SiGnaLlInG. Yet if they said it about you they’d be spot on.

      op was punching up, you changed it to punching down.

      Criticizing the old fart who cheats on his wife with a prostitute isn’t the same as criticizing the prostitute for trying to pay rent.

        OP was always trying to punch down. The blame is on the wealthy not the average person ordering door dash.

        I can promise you the door dasher and the consumer are both much more close economically than either are to the shareholders or CEO of doordash

          The poor consumer has to order trash from temu where little children will be better off assembling the single use electronics.

              That’s the bigotry of low expectations - poor people can’t be vegan, they have to order on temu etc…

                  Where did I say that. Also most people ordering delivery on the regular are pretty well off - at least more than they realize - because that shit isn’t cheap.

                    Oh, I thought we were on the side of all working class people? I guess you don’t actually feel that way, though.
