Okay, I've been looking for the right words to say something that's been bothering me, and I think I've found it: A one day boycott is the weakest fight against a fascist coup I have ever seen, in the entire history of the universe. Are you kidding me? Do you know how many people died to Nazis?! - ThreadSky

It didn't even blip for me bc I'm old and in 1987 we had a monstrosity called "Hands Across America" which was exactly as obviously a stupid pointless thing as it sounds

While I don't remember the event specifically, I do remember the Simpsons making fun of it, lol.

That episode was healing for me. There were kids trying to squeeze out tears about how "moving" that felt to them - it was horrible

It offends me, honestly. It offends me as a human being. What the fuck kind of response is that? Do you understand what they are doing and why? Because if you do, a day of not shopping is nothing to them. The message it sends is you're scared and weak, so thank you for proving it.

They've poured BILLIONS into this. You could shut Capitalism down for a week, and it would just encourage them to declare a state of emergency and wipe out resistance. Do you understand the forces you are allowing to establish full control? What Russia and America's combined intelligence can do?

For fuck's sake, Elon is replacing air traffic control infrastructure with Starlink satellites, as well as pretty much every government contract one of his companies can fulfill, on his own little egomaniacal takeover going on. That alone, is highly concerning.

Elon Musk put 45 billion into this just to take over twitter for this. This is not money consider lost to them, once they have control, they have easy money. It's just their cost of doing business to acquire more.
