customer helped struggling delivery person, in the rain. ummm what the fuck is @swiggy_in doing to earn their commission? why don't platforms maintain a fleet of bikes, employ their delivery personnel, comply with labour laws instead of parasitically exploiting them? https://twitter.com/anandmahindra/status/1300342606291808256

Couching their exploitation in laughably ironic titles such as @SwiggyCares LMAO, yes, Swiggy does care - abt their bottomlines, not workers.

Why tf are delivery personnel expected to rely on charity? When, what they deserve is legal recognition as employees for their work?

Do not fall for these barefaced bullshit schemes peddled by companies & capitalists. Being kind is ofc essential but don't let these companies weaponise 'kindness' to avoid their very real legal + financial obligations to their workers. Demand they stop exploiting labour first.

Also everyone loves talking abt empathy in individual capacity, what about empathy collectively? When you start exploring empathetic systems, how many steps before you realise capitalism is antithetical to all empathy, feeling & decency? This is patriarchy thrives w capitalism.

No wonder UC cishet men shine in capitalism - as bell books notes, the first act of psychic self-mutilation is committed on oneself, it's easy to be cut off from feelings towards others. Being craven, greedy & evil is glorified as 'good' business sense. go to therapy all of you.
