Hm, I will admit I didn't realize the particular executive I was addressing, and that Shopify is off my radar in terms of executive abuses, but CEOs are all of a class, and 40-hour work weeks are still an untenable arrangement, and the Overton window for commonly acceptable work-life balance is far, far toward the wage-slavery side of things–to say nothing of the work-life balance for millions upstream of the Shopify supply chain, e.g. computer-mineral miners in the Global South. So I am not ready to give Tobi any humanitarian awards.

In truth, I have long admired Shopify for their open culture, their tech blogs, and a product that empowers small businesses. None of these things are enough, however, to convince me that he's anything more than a wealthy Libertarian seeking (primarily) personal gain through economic exploitation, managerial coercion, and authoritarian hierarchies.

> a cold, calculating executive is about as far from the mark as you could possibly be

This is an indefensible exaggeration. You're telling me Tobi is a saint? A CEO? An absolute absurdity.

Liberals love democracy until it comes to the workplace. You disgust me.
