If you pull out a big enough "ethics" magnifying glass, you will find ethical flaws in every corporation. One can make the argument, depending on where on the "woke sliding scale" you may lie, that shopping at Walmart is better for the environment than Amazon: they already have a streamlined, efficient supply chain and logistics operation. Amazon relies on a myriad of logistical networks, with many inefficiencies still yet to be solved. But again, not the reason I am shopping/not shopping there.

It has nothing to do with sticking it to anyone. Amazon doesn't have the same value proposition as it once did. I realized I was using it just to use it, among other reasons.
