Yup, this is really maximize shareholder value. I can totally see this teambuilding event doubling dividends. Wait? You said the company never pays dividends and rarely buys back its stock? Wow, I am really seeing those profits!

The funny thing is that people always forget about old money - people who don't know what work is or what actual money is. And who see billionaires as just mere peasants.

Ragnarok314159 ,

There is a lot of old money where I grew up, and it was funny hearing about Blackrock trying to buy their properties. They would offer these people ten times the value, but old money was just “but, that’s just a little bit more money in the money bin. I have a massive house and estate to look at the peasants. Why would I bother?”

Aux ,

And now imagine old money in Europe. For example, the British aristocracy owns at least 30% of land in England (that's the official number, but Land Registry doesn't have information about who owns 15% of land at all and it is most likely owned by aristocracy as well). And England has a leasehold system. So if Blackrock would come to a king or some lord to buy some of their land, the land would be sold to them easily as a long term lease, for like 100+ years. And then Blackrock would also pay yearly rent on top of that. Because you ain't buying shit here, dirty peasant.

Another thing to keep in mind is that old money here have their wealth for over a thousand years. They're not simply entrenched, they're a part of the fabric of the country itself. They have all kinds of exceptions in the laws and regulations and exist above everyone else not only in social status, but also in economic and political status as well.

People can hate the rich as much as they want, but there's a layer in the society which doesn't care about the existence of the rich and the poor. And they are all related to each other through centuries of strategic marriages, so basically one incredibly large family spread across the whole of Europe.

To think this is a problem with just Amazon is silly. This is every American corporation. The executives of every major corporation in this country treat themselves very very well on company dimes while their workers all languish in starvation wages. The only way to fight this is to raise the minimum wage to something that is livable for the average worker. The government needs to force these companies to behave. They will never and I mean abso-fucking-lutely never choose to treat their workers with respect and dignity by paying them a decent living wage.

And the politicians that are in all of their pockets will never ever go against their corporate masters. The only way to make them listen is to get every single American to acknowledge that this is something that is needed and then push their politicians to do it or threaten their jobs by voting for someone else. This goes for both Democrats and Republicans, not quite equally but there's definitely a few Democrats that need to be replaced.

My last job, we removed two departments and fired them all, then forced to have a "virtual retreat" to save money. Three months later, they showed a PowerPoint how this was their best year ever.

Bentonville AR is being turned into a bicyclists haven. To the tune of Arkansas laws are making it that bicyclists don't have to pay attention to traffic laws. That's neat, wonder why... Ah. And while bicycling is one of the better things I guess billionaires can do, in the region buying bicycles are far beyond affordable anymore to a walmart wage because it's gotten so over the top fancy, and the Waltons literally have a helicopter with a bike rack to fly out to the trails. My dad is irritated because of how often it shakes his house as it goes over.

Same city, Alice Walton had a really nice museum built in the area that was surely out of the good of her heart... Ah. Unless really local, one might not know of her nickname "Drunken Alice" where she has a history of dwi's and wrecks, including one where someone was killed, yet somehow nothing seems to stick.

Yea... I've got a bit of an axe to grind with the Waltons having grown up in their personal playground, I agree with you to think this is a problem with just Amazon is ludicrous, and despite only living a state away it's amazing to hear how people bitch about Amazon, it's chokeholds, it's problems, its wrecking of the country, and gives a full pass to Walmart. We live in an oligarchy.

Completely unrelated to my bitching about Walmart, but a perfect example of execs doing this nonsense and how I got in trouble because I can't stop snarking: Worked for a medical testing facility, ran by a doctor. Said doctor buys himself a brand new shiny Lamborghini, then through the whole email has an announcement that for one day for 4 hours where any of the staff can get a picture with the Lambo and share on the company page. Now I met said doc once during training, but otherwise worked 3rd shift with two other people, he certainly never showed up when we had issues.

So when the day happened, it was one of those I commented it's the first time I think I'm glad that 3rd shift gets ignored on any staff events. Think about it for a second, then ask the others "Who has the newest car?", turns out was a Nissan Juke. So each of us go out and get a picture with the Juke, then sent the pictures in to where people were supposed to send in the pics with the Lambo. Turns out they got 4 pictures, the 3 with the Juke, and 1 with the Lambo. Got told by our manager said doc was pissed and to keep our heads down.

damnedfurry ,

The only way to fight this is to raise the minimum wage to something that is livable for the average worker.

Then what do you do when only the Amazons and Walmarts of the world with the deepest pockets can afford that, and small business basically ceases to exist, as a result? People talk a lot about 'if you can't pay a livable wage you don't deserve to be in business', but the same people also complain about monopolies and lack of choice at the same time. How do you propose this be reconciled?

Also, no one's ever going to be able to begin to enforce a "living wage", even if they wanted to, until that wage is given a concrete definition--at the very least, a formula with variables to account for cost of living differences across the country. Until then, all this clamoring for a "living wage" is completely pointless.

AstronautOlympian ,

I can't find much about this gig online, but the Setlist.fm page lists this as a 'private event' for Amazon Web Services.

AWS is not the part of Amazon where employees have to piss in bottles. It's their cloud hosting subsidiary, and the most profitable part of the company. I also can't find any mention that it's just the executives of AWS either. It seems more likely to me that this would have been open to the employees of AWS in general as it is the most profitable part of Amazon and the crowd in the pictures seems quite big if it were only made up of 'AWS executives who like the Foo Fighters'.

EnderMB OP ,

The article says what part of Amazon it was for. It's for logistics, not AWS, which is a separate division.

mosiacmango , (edited )

Its a yearly event that collects directors and above fork across the company to a week long "convention" that is supposed to be about building cohesive between leadership.

The author went in 2022, when they had bon jovi play, and said it was just a boozy networking event where leadership was dictated to by the execs with no actual exchange of ideas.

In 2022, Amazon made a record profits, but even then they were admonished to save money. Still, no layoffs.

This year? They also made record profits, but had record layoffs, yet the party goes on.

The authors overall point is that Amazon is successful by asking people to "lean in," to go the extra mile. When you freeze wages and layoff 10,000s of people while threatening more and still throw your 10 million dollar party for yourself, you are telling good people to not only leave, but to lean right the fuck out before they do.

aesthelete ,

I wonder when "selling out" or being called a "sell out" stopped being a thing. It happened during my lifetime for sure. Now basically everyone everywhere you look in the music business not only is one, but the public seems to not even consider it an option to not sell out, and I think most people dream of being able to be a sell out themselves so much they pardon others preemptively and almost instinctively.

But like in this case, Dave Grohl is already a multimillionaire, does he really have to further prostitute himself for Amazon cash?

chrishazfun ,

I'm kind of bewildered by it, like there wasn't any expectations but this is the sort of thing a creatively spent band would do, one of their best (imo) albums came out last year they absolutely could've passed on this. I'm hoping they at least put on a dogshit show, "Corporate magazines still suck" on Rolling Stone type move.

Most of the people in those concerts are employed. They’ll have stock with Amazon, as does everyone working for Amazon on a full time, permanent contract.

You do realise Amazon is a public company, don’t you? If your country allows fractional shares, you could become an owner of Amazon for £10.

Is the “ruling class” anyone who has a report at Amazon?

VerticaGG ,

https://lemmy.blahaj.zone/comment/6039327

" if you’re under retirement age and quit your job tomorrow, do you have enough assets to comfortably live out the rest of your life"

This gets to it. Basically bourgeoisie is the owning class and proletariat is the class that can only survive via labor, but as the post says it's a bit more complicated these days. You could have a business owner or landlord who gets the same amount of paycheck as say a high-paid tech person, or actor, or doctor, or something. And the former is petty bourgeois and the latter is not, because the former owns assets and the latter, if they lose their job, will before long need to find another one in order to survive.

Now you could have someone getting a wage that's been high enough for a long enough time that they have been able to acquire assets that could bring in income, which changes things somewhat. But the main thing to analyze is the relationship to resources, land, and means of production.

FF (fuck 'em) whoring themselves for Amazon execs isn't the main story here. It's the disgusting exploitation of labor for profits. Organized destruction of unions and workers rights had made this tale an everyday, everywhere occurrence. Long ago there was a time when the news would report about main street and wall street as being more intertwined. Today their well being is in opposite directions. From symbiotic to parasitic.

It seems to prefer coercion as a method to keep people producing rather than inspiring them and earning their best.

Ambush style layoffs remove the feeling of safety, making people desperate to prove they shouldn’t be next. With this approach, Amazon embraces a timelessly blood-curdling rationale: nothing concentrates the mind like a credible threat.

Annual attrition targets for a fixed percentage of people every year create a survival mentality. No one wants to be the slowest gazelle when the lion comes around again, so everyone runs faster. Classic coercion.

masquenox ,

It is a musician's business to know who they are performing for and why - and the more famous they are, the more it starts to matter. Grohl knows this.

The people on here who is excusing this with "capitalism bad except when people I like is doing it" arguments is just demonstrating how empty "liberal values" get when push comes to shove.

Oh they straight up deny it's happening. Nobody tries to say it's a genocide and it's okay, they just deny it or deflect to talking about Trump.

awesome_lowlander ,

Trump is not a 'deflection' from Biden. Trump is the only alternative, and a much worse one for pretty much everybody on the planet, even if some don't realise it.

It is absolutely a deflection when we want Biden to stop participating in Genocide, to instead bring up Trump.

There’s a pretty big gray area for “participating in capitalism does not equal approval of capitalism.”

That only goes for the working class - the people who are forced to participate in capitalism. Not for filthy rich musicians.

And this is music, not war.

There is no aspect of our enforced existence under capitalism that is free from it's insidious influence - and that includes music.

As all the liberals festering around here does. I'll just throw this badge on the heap with the others, okay?

batmanifesto ,

and you know it.

This is where you are wrong. You aren't commenting on the article.. You aren't even commenting on the post about the article. Your responding to a comment left on the post about the article.

It's you that's arguing in bad faith here, or at least not recognising the context of what you're saying, presumably because you're too busy trying to get across your own point.

I don't think your initial point about the criticism that should be levelled at Amazon is wrong (I think you'd be hard-pressed to find anyone on here that supports what Amazon have done), but that isn't to say that the Foo Fighters shouldn't be being criticised here.

Both things can be true.

But by responding to a comment that points out the band's faults with whatabouttery you're kind of coming across like you're defending the band whilst also ignoring all the other people saying the same thing you are. Then on top of that having a go at the OP when he points out other people are talking about the Amazon issue by saying you're clearly taking about the article.... If you're commenting on the article why are you replying to some other post?!

Wogi ,

That's actually their manager's business. Literally what they hire them for. And honestly, if you're going to fault them for performing a private venue for an Amazon event, you should also fault every artist that's ever performed in like, Vegas. Casinos have been bleeding people to death long before Amazon hit the scene.

I'm not going to fault a performer for literally doing their job and taking a fat payday. I'd probably do the same in their shoes, anybody who insists otherwise isn't being honest with themselves.

It's not like the rider said "play show at Amazon, these guys just laid a lot of people off and are screaming about budget cuts so they want you to play for the rest. Here's 4 million dollars."

It probably said "corporate event for 6-10k people. Here's a check for 4 million dollars"

TheFriar , (edited )

So you’re arguing that selling out any supposed values you might have is fine as long as the check is big enough.

Foo Fighters are a huge band. They aren’t at the whims of some all powerful manager. And Amazon’s crimes are not new, they’re not obscure information. They’re incredibly well known, frequently discussed, and go hand in hand with the mention of Amazon. They knew what they were doing, who they were doing it for.

Now, if you want to discuss the power that record labels and their business relationships hold and their contracts with the bands they produce, that’s a possible explanation for this. But we’re talking about aging millionaire white guys. Chances are, they had veto power, knew what they were doing and probably could’ve accepted a monetary fine from the record company for defying a contract obligation if that’s why they were being forced to do it. And, honestly, probably would’ve leaked that information, gotten a ton of great press, maybe gotten into a public dispute with the record label if they chose to speak out about it, and then cashed in on that.

But, like you said, they did it for a fat paycheck. They didn’t stick up for the well-documented abused workers of Amazon while cashing in on it — “virtue signaling,” as people say. They decided to do this. For money. From Amazon executives.

And that’s…not better.

The fact that this comes at the end of typical corporate purse string tightening at the expense of workers is really just the steaming shit nugget on top of this diarrhea sundae.

Wogi ,

I'm arguing that you're villainising the wrong people.

TheFriar ,

And that was me telling you your assumption of who’s at fault was way off the mark.

They’re rockstars. They knew what they were doing and made the choice themselves.

bolexforsoup ,

Sure but the biggest pushback I’ve really seen tbh was by a dude who eventually revealed he’s just ranting about cancel culture. He doesn’t even like Grohl. So certainly not a liberal lol

TimLovesTech ,

For those not upset and see the band "just playing a gig", what would be a line that you personally would consider too far? Would you be ok with them doing a private show for Netanyahu and his cabinet? Would a private show for Trump and his Republican lackeys be ok? How about Nestle CEO and its board, but none of its workers? Would a private show for the Proud Boys be ok if they had a "dump truck full of cash"?

Bluefalcon ,

I definitely agree but it still hurts, a lot.

admin ,
@admin@lemmy.my-box.dev avatar

I honestly don't care who they play for, as long as it's not at the cost of of any regular scheduled gig.

SkyNTP , (edited )

Right? The concert is not the problem. The problem is who is paying for it/who is deserving of this (or any other) company benefit.

Though I guess there is an argument to be had that the performers are enabling class exploitation instead of standing in solidarity. Then again, it's entirely plausible that the performers don't know any of these details.

FiniteBanjo ,

This is way past the point for me, but I'm not a good musician or famous and part of how I draw lines may be contributing factors.

asdfasdfasdf ,

Personally, I'd think it would be much for impactful to play for whoever, then donate all the proceeds to some important cause. Telling e.g. Netanyahu no to a Foo Fighters concert isn't going to make him change his mind about anything. But giving the concert will take money away from him and give it to something important.

PiJiNWiNg ,

What harm are they doing though? They're being paid to do a private concert, not donating to their super PAC. It goes without saying that lavish spending on executives when people are being laid off is super gross, but at the end of the day I dont think the band did anything worth being chastised for.

dependencyinjection ,

Well I guess I’ll be adding the Foo Fighters to my list of people that won’t be getting any money from me.

Does it matter? Sure it matters to me. I can sleep better knowing I’m not contributing to things I don’t agree with.

I expected better from Dave Grohl but here we are.

PiJiNWiNg ,

Obviously it's entirely your prerogative what artists to support, but I'm having a hard time understanding how the Fighters of the Foo accepting money from rich douches changes how you feel about them. Now, if they took an Amazon record deal and wrote a bunch of garbage jingles or something, then yeah, id bail on em too. But in this case, I don't hink theyve done anything they havent done 1000x before; Played on a stage for a few hours, shook some hands, took some photos, and went home with some extra zeroes in their bank account.

KevonLooney ,

I think this is an interesting point. What if they gave a concert and a murderer attended? Should they leave if they found out who was there?

Of course it's more personal when it's a private concert, but this is Amazon not Gaddafi. They are kind of supporting the company, but who's working as an Amazon executive just for the concerts? I'm sure they have free gym memberships or something too. Should the gym ban them?

dependencyinjection ,

It changes how I feel about them because I refuse to support people that don’t hold the same morals as me.

I’m not saying they can’t perform here, just that their actions have consequences and they have to deal with that.

Does it matter in the grand schema of things? Not at all, but I know what my beliefs are and where I want to put my money.

Perhaps one day there will be a line that is over your moral boundary and I would support your right to make that choice.

PiJiNWiNg ,

Oh, I do the same for other things and didnt mean to imply you should do anything differently, everyone has their "line". I'm just saying maybe you dont have to throw out the baby with the bathwater. The Foo Fighters, particularly Dave Grohl, are some of the more humanitarian artists out there. Dave himself routinely puts on BBQs to feed the homeless. So considering your comment about actions having consequences, they've earned a little bit of wiggle room in my eyes.

But regardless, I respect ypur opinion and enjoy your weekend!

Railing5132 ,

Just to carry this train of thought forward... What type of device (make/OS) did you compose this post with? Unless you found a way to pass tcp via... I don't know... clay you dig up in your back yard, it's pretty hard to avoid ecological damage and morally-questionable employment practices. Participating in damn near any way with any economy makes all of us complicit, and at this point all we're arguing is to what degree makes each of us uncomfortable.

dependencyinjection ,

So if we can’t completely remove ourselves from every terrible company in society we shouldn’t even try at all.

That’s pretty apathetic don’t you think.

If we can’t stop all murders, why bother prosecuting any aye.

Hobo ,

This is such weird logic. The Foo Fighters are millionaires that have a ton of leeway with what shows they do because they don't really need more money to survive. The guy that frames houses probably isn't working for a morally great company but that dude starves without the job.

Railing5132 ,

And yet the Foo fighters and specifically Dave do benefit concerts raising millions and actually cook and feed disadvantaged people by the thousands. They also do (at last I knew) an annual multi-day trolling of the westboro Baptist church compound, which is a great thing imho.

Now, what is the measure of a man? Is it a sliding scale? Is it just the sums? Sure, that house framer has smaller sins, but does he have a smaller positive impact? Does it matter?

As I said in my last sentence, we're all just arguing degrees.

Hobo ,

That's a completely different argument...

GluWu ,

Something about monkies with lots of bananas? Dave's got 330 million bananas and just got a few hundred thousand more. Hoarding is only bad when people I don't like do it.

PiJiNWiNg ,

Oh, dont get me wrong, most anyone hoarding that much wealth is an asshole by default, but theres a lot worse out there than those guys. Hell, just this year Dave BBQed for 24hrs to feed the homeless, and has done many such events over the years.

BrianTheeBiscuiteer ,

I consider Amazon to be only average evil. Now if they did a concert for Nestle...

ilinamorato ,

I think that anything benign that separates evil people from a significant portion of their cash is fine by me. That's millions of dollars they can't use to break up unions, or replace human workers with AI, or pay for campaign ads (or hush money, or legal costs). And it's not something that's aiding them in those pursuits, so it's generally just money they're losing.

I think. That's just my initial idea.

Maggoty ,

Depends on how they're paying for it and if I could donate most of it to causes that actively oppose them. IMO it's like buying Chicks CDs to burn them. But the money, which is the real power here, flowed in one direction that day.

Railing5132 ,

Look, I despise Amazon and Jeff bezos. I avoid Amazon and work hard to find products from retailers that aren't Amazon storefronts. But at some point, unless you're self-employed and completely self-sustaining, you're 1) whoring yourself out to somebody, and 2) sucking the knob of capitalism somewhere.

All we're left to argue is matter of degrees.

the_doktor ,

Seems like it's just fanboyism and they can't stand that a band they care about (or at least enjoy) has sold out to the absolute worst degree. People are right in that all bands sell out to a certain point ("All you know about me is what I've sold ya, dumb fuck/I sold out long before you'd ever even heard my name/I sold my soul to make a record, dipshit/And then you bought one" -- Hooker with a Penis, Tool), but when you specifically accept a gig that is just some elitist executive party for a company that treats its employees like shit, you've gone too far.

Fuck the Foos. And stop making it political ("lol, liberals") -- bullshit, this is just rampant band fanboyism.
