But only some numbers. Apple’s, for instance, is net profit from what I can see. Heinz isn’t. I haven’t looked into any more of them, but they’re just inconsistent.
Crappy posts like this bug me so much because it makes “my side” look like we’re full of shit. There are mountains of true and verified facts to support the conclusion that workers should be paid more and corporations are ruthlessly greedy.

Please edit your post title to reflect likely inaccuracy/inconsistency of some numbers. e.g.: “[may be misleading; see comments]”
As much as I hate Twitter, the feature where users can add context would be amazing on other platforms. Would love to see it on Lemmy.
You’re misinformed.
Please provide a source for the definition of gross profit.
Anyone who has done accounting 101 knows that Gross Profit is Revenue less Cost of Goods Sold.
Perhaps you can pay provide evidence of how fundamental accounting is wrong instead?
