@Jinjirrie Adidas has always been a disgusting corporation. Like all corporations.

In early 2020, during the COVID2019 pandemic, the German government passed an actually reasonable law, for a change: Citizens couldn't be kicked out of their homes by their landlords for not paying rent, even if they were a few months behind. This was because many people had been fired due to their employers having to keep their offices closed.

Adidas was quick to exploit that law like a parasite and decided to just not pay rent anymore, despite making 24 billion EUR in revenue and 2 billion EUR in profits. The law was meant to help citizens, not corporations.
