I know. Amazon is owned by Jeff Bezos, who is worth $200 billion dollars, and controls a newspaper. I can think of other ways to support a small business thanks than be pressured in to spending cash on a small business via amazon, so amazon can give me a voucher to spend more with them on just two days next month, but they wont tell me now what items they'll put on offer so....? This is a company that won't allow it's employees to unionise, actively avoids taxation and a therefore a fair contribution to the British economy, it's customers and workforce. I shop on amazon. But i also hate them.
I just really dislike her forceful narrative that pressures people to shop during this time that a lot of peoples incomes and job security has taken a battering to support the income and profit of others. Women tend to earn less than men, we are marketed to in a way that pressures us to buy more than men (makeup, beauty products, clothes - seriously most men i know at work wear the same shoes and suit trousers all week and change their shirt daily, not so for the women i work with) the last thing i need is some woman on instgram guilting me in to buying something she's being paid to talk about (and wouldn't otherwise) under the guise of 'support small businesses(.... and amazon! the worlds biggest business!)'
