Cynical isn't the right word for the problem in swebs reasoning. Of course Bezos is a villain. But if you get Amazon to do this, it's good for the country, regardless of motivation.

So remain cynical but recognize that good politics can lead to bad companies doing good things.

If Bezos is a villain, his millions of customers are accomplices. Have you tipped your Amazon warehouse worker recently?

Don't think that's how villainy, accomplices, or tips work.
