Unilever to cut a third of office jobs in Europe
(www.reuters.com)
Still in russia eh
Food companies all claimed their products critical because ... Russians would starve without them, I guess? Considering the type of foods produced by Unilever (i.e. powderized garbage and snacks), I have my doubts though.
Bullshit. Most even halfway-decent companies left. Unilever is run by complete bastards.
A large percentage of the international food system is controlled by these companies:
- Nestle - did not leave Russia
- Danone/Dannon - did not leave Russia for a long time but has apparently sold the business now
- Mars - did not leave Russia
- Unilever - did not leave Russia
- PepsiCo - did not fully leave Russia
- Coca-Cola - did not fully leave Russia
Will they lay off staff, or will they sell brands?
Probably both.
Who will be the consumers when all jobs has been lost to AI and automation?
Why would the consumers be needed, when the rich would own the (automated) means of production?
Again, who will buy the products..? No work, no money, can't buy products...
Well no one, but that will not be a problem for those who are already rich.
