That is assuming that their stated complaints (real and made-up) are the *cause* of their Amazon hatred.
Reading between the lines of some of the screeds it is clear that their issues with Amazon are rooted in its competitive threat to their vested interests rather than their products' failure to satisfy. (That is: personal and emotional rather than logical and detached.)
To put it another way: it's 1% "Amazon doesn't do business the way *I* want them to" (which is acceptable, albeit whiny, carping) and 99% spin-doctoring because amazon is riding a wave of industry disruption that threatens their livelihood (which is understandable but self-serving).
Best to just shrug and move on without direct response.
People get "touchy" when their livelihood is at stake.
Especially when challenged by people without a stake who literally don't care how it plays out.
Best to walk away, folks.
