@holz_bau Thanks, look forward to reading

[Aaron Trent @aaronmtrent]

@holz_bau When does the book come out? I’d like to buy a copy

[Aaron Trent @aaronmtrent]

@benshapiro Great “fashion,” Ben! I’ve heard black is slimming!

[Aaron Trent @aaronmtrent]

@loganb I’ve followed you for months actually. No longer though! Enjoy your weekend picking fights with other progressives

[Aaron Trent @aaronmtrent]

@loganb Full on reply guy today, huh? Go outside, Logan

[Aaron Trent @aaronmtrent]

@loganb I understand your argument and just don’t agree. I think by tapping into RTO frustration, Amazon Employees for Climate Justice can broaden the coalition of internal folks demanding action on what we both agree is an existential threat.

[Aaron Trent @aaronmtrent]

@loganb Per your initial screenshot, it’s both “do more on climate,” which many of us have been demanding internally for years, and “listen to employees who would want more remote work options.” You don’t have to like the second one, but don’t shit on people agitating for climate action

[Aaron Trent @aaronmtrent]

@loganb “Coddled in terms of face time?” No idea what that means. The goal is simply to use the leverage we have as employees to demand that a major emitter do better. How you’re not aligned with that straightforward goal is a mystery to me 🤷🏻‍♂️

[Aaron Trent @aaronmtrent]

@loganb My view is that employees have a role to play and I want to be a part of making Amazon do better. If governments won’t force climate action and corporations can’t be relied on to do it themselves, why wouldn’t you encourage employees to try? (2/2)

[Aaron Trent @aaronmtrent]

@loganb Disappointed that your argument is just “optics.” The walkout started with Amazon Employees for Climate Justice, which has been around since 2019. The real question is how do people of conscience hold corporations accountable for doing more about emissions? (1/2)

[Aaron Trent @aaronmtrent]

@JDVance1 Is it “compassionate” to endorse vigilante violence against someone causing a nuisance on a train? Is that nuisance punishable by extrajudicial execution? No, obviously not. Thought you went to law school, JD. You continue to embarrass Ohioans with your cruelty.

[Aaron Trent @aaronmtrent]

@ScottPresler @POTUS What is your argument in favor of these surprise fees, @ScottPresler? Are those fees helping any of the struggling Americans you claim to advocate for?

[Aaron Trent @aaronmtrent]

@elonmusk Still testing in PROD lol?

[Aaron Trent @aaronmtrent]

@JDVance1 Small dick energy

[Aaron Trent @aaronmtrent]

@benshapiro Make Ben move to Florida.

[Aaron Trent @aaronmtrent]

@mbsycamore If we don’t have fresh air, what’s the point of living in Seattle? It’s the question I’m asking myself daily now.

[Aaron Trent @aaronmtrent]

@ScottPresler Do car accidents next

[Aaron Trent @aaronmtrent]

@Jim_Jordan Real Americans can’t tweet bullshit all day either. Get a life
