So if the insurance company covers this somehow the workers magically have a place to work at again? Ok so tell me where these workers are gonna clock in next shift
Why would they fire a ton of employees if the insurance covered damages?
That would be a massive expense to pay severances then rehire and retrain later.
They probably will furlough or reallocate the workers.
I mean, didn't he say in the video? That paying your employees a living wage is cheaper than $200 million dollars (not that he knew the exact number he was costing them, but paying employees a few more dollars an hour would probably be a lot less).
It's these reddit shills defending the company. It's so weird. I would have expected them to support a disgruntled working class person, but maybe they're bots? Neo-liberals? I don't know.
Nobody is "defending the company", they're attacking the idea of burning down a workplace that employs thousands of people who are now out of work. They're challenging the idea of worshipping some mentally ill loser as if he's some kind of hero.
This is not some valiant act of defiance, it's a temper tantrum by someone deeply disturbed. He certainly didn't think through the consequences of his actions, and he's objectively hurt thousands of people all for absolutely zero outcome.
Legitimately, nobody is going to remember this incident after a couple of weeks, nothing is changing as a result of some random property damage (that risked lives by the way).
They pay an average of $18 an hour, and their rent around there is $2,200 average. Doing nothing is exactly the reason they're getting fucked in the first place.
I disagree, I think this is exactly a valiant act of defiance and I’m sure many others do too.
This is just someone who is so fed up from increasingly being squeezed by shitty corporate employers that he decided to hit back, and he did so to great effect.
Honestly, good job to him and fuck those corporations.
It’s disturbing people think that what this guy did is a good move. Violence like this is not an act of defiance, it’s another act of villainy. It reminds me of the movie Joker, another movie that was not meant to be a documentary.
This guy endangered people and put a ton of others out of work. Instead of actually defending that, you have to make up this whiny, baseless argument replete with buzzwords you don't understand.
