Your Boss and Landlord Vote

quote [ Your Boss & Your Landlord Vote follows the re-election campaign of Kshama Sawant, the socialist Seattle City Council member who Jeff Bezos spent a record-breaking $1.5 million trying to defeat.


In 2014, Sawant blazed a trail as Seattle’s first elected socialist in 100 years.


Since then, her office has spearheaded victories that led the way for socialists nationally, including the first $15 minimum wage, the Amazon Tax, and landmark renters rights victories.


As she runs for re-election in 2019, it becomes clear just how much of a threat this movement is to the owning class of Seattle. ]

Haven't watched this yet, but I remember seeing some of the insane crap that Amazon pulled in Seattle around this time. I'm sure it'll be interesting.

The video was oddly lacking in content from both the hero and, more notably, the villain. There was no clear picture exactly how Bezos was buying the election.
