Also worth remembering the privilege it takes to enter a Costco - you need to buy their stupid membership card, and now scan it every time you enter. Never sat right with me.
Can’t even share one card between all your buddies anymore since the scanners show the picture of the card holder. Total shit
Idk I’ve been getting away with it
I tried with my dad’s card and they stopped me last week. Far as I’ve heard my area was a testing location for the advanced scanners

It’s a capitalist solution to a capitalist problem - the problem of accessing the wholesale pipeline. It’s obviously not this anymore anyway, but that’s what the membership is for. You’re buying at the “convenience store” level, but without the volume that’s what the membership makes up for. Using Costco as your distributer is still a thing in rural areas, esp in Washington. Last time I was near Mt. Rainer there was a convenience store in the town that was clearly breaking up Costco packs, but they were like 1 of 3 places you could actually buy stuff.
If they mastered Capitalism then why haven’t other businesses followed their models and plans?
After all, Capitalism is supposed to be the best, most efficient system!
oh are they sayign this because the founder got mad they wanted to raise the hotdog prices and said no
Costco
We’re Not Walmart!
The fact that pro-capitalism content is now being churned out clearly sponsored by the big corps or thinktanks or whoever is pushing these things is a solidly good sign of the current fearful mindset going on among the capitalists.
I would rather see a militant mindset going on among the workers. This is not a good thing
I seem to remember a similar (article not video) about costco a year or more ago. This vid bein posted so recently smellsa faff designed to push down strike news search results
costco has been doing a lot of youtuber sponsorships lately as well. genuinely have been seeing their logo at least once everytime i open youtube. they’re really trying to push a good image for sure and it definitely wouldn’t be suprising if it was related to the strike.
Smellsa Faff. Is that the maiden name of Latka Gravas’s mother?
Was it Nick Mullen arguing that shopping at Costco is a catered event?
Welcome to Costco, I love you
Costco is one of the least-worst private employers. I don’t really see how it’s “cope” and not just a click bait title that’s a cheap shit at drawing attention to this video.
Literally the only reason Costco workers get perks is the unionized stores. They give everyone the same benefits as the union stores as a tactic to discourage further unionization. I used to work for Costco and I have to say it sounded like an effective union busting tactic. I tried bringing up unionizing to some of my coworkers and the general response I got was “why bother? They already treat us pretty good”
they’re least worst only because the unions force them to be a responsible employer.
with union busting people in charge of our government; i bet costco’s reputation is about to get worse, but it won’t matter since places like amazon are notoriously irresponsible employers, yet liberals happily buy from them anyways.
It’s conditions are less shitty despite capitalism not due to “mastery” of capitalism. The premise was already flawed.
“Mastered Capitalism” or “Found a temporarily profitable niche”?
You(Tube) decide
Their particular shareholders were pro DEI, so liberals are now doing free promotion for them.
