It doesn’t matter how many billions you have in the bank or how powerful you are, if someone says something mean about you on the internet, that shit hurts your feelings, man.

As summarised by MailOnline:

Amazon recruited an army of Twitter trolls and code-named it ‘Veritas’ to target critics like Bernie Sanders and defend Jeff Bezos

The ‘army’ is made of ambassadors who go online to defend the company
It began in 2018 but has become particularly relevant in the midst of of 6,000 Amazon workers in Alabama who were voting on whether to form a union
The ambassadors defend warehouse conditions and troll Amazon’s critics
Training documents reveal they are told to speak out in a ‘blunt’ way if necessary

In fairness, this is probably less about Jeff Bezos having his feelings hurt and more about the haters hurting his bottom line by talking about Amazon treating their workers like slaves and not paying enough tax and whatnot. Especially major accounts like AOC and Bernie Sanders who are constantly making him out to be some kind of supervillain who is killing small businesses around America.

What better way to deal with that than to hire a team of Bezos defenders to Tweet about how awesome it is to work at Amazon? Lol:

What can you say really? Even billionaires like Jeff Bezos need allies on the internet in this day and age. Now he just needs someone to create pro-Bezos memes 24/7 and he’s good to go. Don’t hate the player, hate the game. (Well OK, maybe we can hate the player a little bit in this case).
