The net number of jobs does not change. They are not eliminating jobs, they are moving them. The same number of people are employed.

Spoken like a corporate apologist.

The net number of jobs does not change.

That’s not necessarily true at all. Companies downsize virtually all the time when they move.

And it’s not even what I said anyway, you’re putting words in my mouth. I said leaving thousands jobless. Do you understand?

And just glossing over the genocide part, eh? I’ll ask you directly: is genocide bad, good, or neither?

It also creates new jobs for thousands of other people. Why do you hate those people?

You are just a racist. It offends you that people in the developing world are getting jobs.

Ah yes. Being against companies fucking over their workers is racist. 🙄

If the total number of employed people doesn’t change, what is your problem? They are not eliminating jobs, they are relocating them.

That’s a massive if.

And I already explained above.

This is your last chance to address what I wrote in my earlier comment. I won’t talk any further until you do.
