It's not mind boggling at all. The popular mantra is: Amazon is my friend and will do me no harm. Consequently, whenever Amazon does someone harm or might be the culprit, the mantra chanters rise to its defense. The thinking is that if the mantra is repeated often enough and loudly enough, it will be true. There is no need to get bogged down in facts or the idea that sometimes bad turns of events are, indeed, Amazon's fault. It is always the person who was harmed who is at fault -- or one of Amazon's nefarious competitors.
