People ordering off of Amazon prevents them from having to go to brick and mortar stores where they could also spread or catch the virus. This includes the elderly who are in the highest risk groups for the disease. Most if not all Amazon warehouse workers are significantly less likely to be in high risk groups, meaning they are much more likely to have milder symptoms if they do catch it.
Sure it sucks for those who work for Amazon, ideally they should be given a choice, but people are not going to stop buying things if Amazon is way behind and orders are looking at a week or two shipment time. They'll go out in public to stores full of other people. This seems like the lesser evil of two bad options to me.
What's worse, stores having mass of people going in and out or a restricted set of workers they can try to keep apart?
Right now, yes those workers are at greater danger than not working (and maybe they deserve extra pay here) but I would argue that for the public good Amazon better than in person stores at the moment.
I mean, you are on where you are, Most people here are all about "entrepreneurship", adore Bezos, Kalanick, Musk, "disruption", despise unions by a large majority, believe in "the right to work" and care very little about menial worker conditions and class warfare. You'd be on another sort of forum you'd hear a very different tune. So it is to be expected. Be smart bind your time and then s*bvert.
