Amazon Boycott starts today [1]

Just a reminder that on the heels of the SUCCESSFUL February 28, 2025 Economic Blackout, a COLLECTIVE action against Amazon has begun today.
Take a stand against trump and his evil enablers by ceasing all business with one of his backers today through March 14th.
The benefits of participating are several:
1. It disrupts the economic system in a way that cannot be denied. We’re not “paid protesters,” we’re just motivated citizens speaking with our wallets.
2. It scares the mavens of the status quo. If there is one thing they hate it is seeing Americans unite in opposition to their ongoing abuse. There will be lots of them saying boycotts don’t work. Their concern says otherwise!
3. It’s good practice. Good things happen when we act collectively. More good things happen when we practice and get better at it.
4. Stressing them is fun! It leads to some high comedy as they sputter and struggle to justify the unjustifiable. It also leads to unforced errors. Seeing Elon’s head explode is probably too much to wish for, but the Orange Monster is clearly in pretty delicate shape. Seeing him break down from the stress would be fun!
5. You don’t need a lot of the crap they sell. Slow down, simplify, support your local friends and neighbors. In the words of one of their cheerleaders: “If you will live like no one else, later you can live like no one else.” There is a lot of truth in that. Save your money for more important things than a crummy babble from China.
March 7-14, no Amazon, no Prime, no Bezos. Send your message!
