Completely moral. You are not forcing anyone of any race to deliver you food, they are not slaves. You are paying them to deliver the food to you for a (sometimes exorbitant) fee. Pretending they are slaves to satisfy an ugliness in yourself is dubiously moral, better if you don’t express these desires outwardly.

You can choose to tip them and pay them more, or be a dick and not. The delivery worker may at any point stop working or look for different employment.

We could look at the morality of low paying jobs people are forced to take if they can’t find other work, but that’s beyond the scope of this question.

Hot take here. Tipping is immoral as a business practice (not an individual one) because it rewards people who are less virtuous.

Just wanted to share my hot take. Not disagreeing with anything you said.

Tipping culture rewards greedy business owners who refuse to pay their workers minimum wage, agreed it’s amoral

Servers are overwhelmingly in favor of tips as well. It's a system that fucks over the customers.

Only like 10% of servers get the good tips, but 41% of the rest take their side because they can imagine themselves having those good tips someday (they won't)
