Amazon trying to cover their ass?

Updated Wednesday, September 4, 2024 5:10 p.m. EST - Amazon reached out to deny the reports of a crack down on singing along with the radio in trucks and provided this PR video clip as evidence. A PR spokesperson told Jalopnik: “This post is completely inaccurate. Amazon has never issued guidance or communications to Delivery Service Partners that prohibits singing in the vehicle.”

Pattern recognition is quite a fancy way to describe assuming.

If i thought amazon deserved the benefit of doubt then i would probably be siding with them, but as i said, i dont have an opinion on the matter at this time.

You are looking for shortcuts for critical thinking, and congrats, you've found one. As long as you dont care about the quality of the foundation of your beliefs then you are in the clear.

If you hate amazon regardless of this story, you are entitled to that. I want to understand reality, and am willing to suspend my opinions in the absence of information to maximize my understanding of whats actually going on in the world. But yeah, its certainly simpler to do it your way.

Its weird to me how much people tell me what i believe when i havent given them any legitimate reason to. I point out missing information for the conclusions being drawn in the comments and everyone else uses their genius shortcut logic to deduce who i am. Now, i do know who i am, and i know commenters are pretty consistently wrong when they extrapolate my opinions to praising something because im not memeing my worldview like a manchild. Life is so much more than that.
