I pared your comment down for simplicity's sake.

There's this thing that exists known as nuance.

If I go to Whataburger because I love their sweet and spicy burger, but I think their chicken sandwich is awful, should I shun them and never go there again? No, of course not. Because it is possible to like some or even most things about a company without loving everything about them.

I even tried giving a helpful analogy with Netflix, nestled right in there between Barry's comment and yours (post #50).

Barry's comment, if quoted in full started with: I do agree with that. I'm bothered lately by the creeping dishonesty I'm finding at Amazon. Don't get me wrong, I'm a big fan of Amazon and a very good customer.

It also included statements such as: I'm all for Amazon being successful and they're sure an important part of my life...

You liking something about a company isn't the same as saying you must endorse every action they take in every instance.
