Slavery at Amazon - No toilet breaks, earning less than minimum wage



Billionaire Slave Owners

  • Amazon's Jeff Bezos is the richest man on earth with $90 Billion. But even though he has more money than any human could ever spend he still grinds his workers like a Slave Master so he can get another mansion in the South of France or Beverly Hills. 
  • I have been there and felt the whip as a corporate employee. If you work 16 hours they bitch you are lazy for not working 18 hours. Fuck 'em.

Our expose comes three weeks after a Sunday Mirror undercover probe highlighted life inside Amazon’s biggest European packing plant.
Now the Driving and Vehicle Standards Agency has vowed to investigate after drivers contacted them to complain about conditions.

The Herero and Nama genocide was a campaign of racial extermination and collective punishment that the German Empire undertook in German South West Africa against the HereroNama and San people. It is considered the first genocide of the 20th century. It took place between 1904 and 1907 during the Herero Wars.

"Any Herero found inside the German frontier, with or without a gun or cattle, will be executed. I shall spare neither women nor children. I shall give the order to drive them away and fire on them."
