I think its like every company in the US practically. I know it seems unreal, but I think it's time to grow our own food, build websites that trade, use open source applications like Linux. I've looked all of this up in a follow the money app. It's every company. Look what happened during covid

Nice this is awesome. Did you see the link to the current Boycott model for Gaza movement I found. BDS Movement. https://bdsmovement.net/ This could be a good model.

Yes but I'd suggest to observe if their method leads to success before doing the same. I like the newsletter aspect as well

luigimovement.bsky.social•175 days ago

Well it is clearly not successful enough. An other idea that is coming up is to just focus on one single company at a time. Like a targeted boycott, almost more like a picket line. Just attack one si gel company and use them as an example instead of trying to boycott everything.

Yes but also this will be a everyday thing this is not a 'we're doing this for 3 months' thing - thats not gonna be enough

Agreed, it would have to be a long term campaign for sure. Nothing important is going to happen fast. But we do want to build momentum and get people excited.

Maybe reach out to Mark Cuban for ideas.

karlemarx.bsky.social•172 days ago

I read he is a billionaire himself. Would he even want to help? I don't know much about him

Also in regards to everyone but especially poor - give a monthly stipend to family for fresh fruits and vegetables.

That was my thought but I’ve been seeing him in some interviews and he seems genuine. https://youtu.be/f5fr6lDb04w?si=cinGNv8XgjFwDQ4m

How would we get in touch with @mcuban.bsky.social for ideas on Boycotts. Not sure how to go about that. But anyone can input for sure.

irisisblooming.bsky.social•172 days ago

I’ll see what I can find out. He’s got a whole movement going now to dramatically alter the price of and access to prescription drugs. Sure there are reachables somewhere in that chain.
