 look at mainstream attitudes towards the two
companies and try measuring opinion about willingness to say something like "I
bought it at Walmart" vs "I bought it from Amazon".

There's more, though. And I write all this as a pro-social, anti-libertarian
leftist:

The obsession with trying to "help" the workers in these jobs—and in
industries like Uber—mirrors a lot of the arguments you'll see in the pro-life
vs pro-choice debate. People are fond of pointing out that conservatives care
disproportionately about unborn fetuses when measured against how willing
conservatives are to let infants be thrown to the wolves after birth. I see
the public outcry that something has to be done about these companies (so as
to help their workers, but comparatively little care for what's in store for
those workers after the movement's immediate goals are met) as the left's own
paradox (to call it by a charitable term; "hypocrisy" if you're less worried
about hurting anyone's feelings).

Shouldn't be surprising. Most "opinion" is accounted for as a bunch of dumb
trends and fashion and idpol talking points more than it is arrived at by
thoughtful consideration.
