I'm personally extending my blackout --definitely onboard. Since Bezos went to the inauguration and made obsequies to the trumpmusk two faced king, I deleted Audible, shopped only at Costco for food, bought direct from merchants. +I am off facebook & IG permanently, and X since Musk bought it
These are only target dates provided by this group. Certainly individuals can do their own thing and encourage their friends to do their own thing by boycotting them whenever.
I didn't renew my Amazon Prime membership. Maybe people who intend to keep their Prime memberships but are participating in the "blackout" should log in to their accounts and "pause membership" for the duration of their purchasing blackout.
Exactly. A couple days won’t do shit. I’m not sure why all these protests and boycotts are so limited. That defeats the freakin purpose. Cancel. Let go of your vices for the greater good. Let go of Amazon. Let go of meta. Let go of whatever else. I’m not sure why it’s a hard concept.
Addiction maybe? That was my best guess. Takes A LOT of willpower or help from others. I do wish adults could just be adults. Appreciate you, please always add these kinds of notes to protest notification. It CAN be more, it SHOULD be more effort. Zero purchasing from Whole Foods too.
I cancelled Amazon prime and won’t shop there. This one is super easy!!! Everyone needs to cancel Amazon. It’s the only thing the billionaire asshats care about.
I'm in Uk I've already disabled my family Amazon prime music subscription, I'm buying considerably less & less moving to EBay & direct from suppliers, hit them where it hurts ..... their $$$
I think people should just quit shopping at Amazon. I get the convenience factor but I haven’t used my Amazon account in years & have had no problem finding what I need at the local shops in my area. And most deliver now for a nominal fee.
Most of the products are cheap as well, and some are dangerous. I haven’t bought from them for around 10 years after being sent knock off watches, and Amazon said too bad. They also ignored my cancellation and continued to charge me.
I would not even hazard a guess what the numbers are for that business. Shopping for emergency supplies like medication I can’t think of anything else would be the only exemption.
Luckily my Prime renewal was on the 13th. I cancelled it. Even if I wanted to buy something from Amazon, I am not crazy enough to pay for delivery. So, I am safe from buying anything from Amazon ever again. I also cancelled my Kindle subscription. No more Kindle either.
Delete Account. Never buy from them again. Even if you have to do without, or put extra effort into finding products elsewhere, it’s better than funding a Nazi supporting billionaire.

Boycott who you can
Don’t miss it. And couldn’t we & the planet 🌎 all benefit from buying less stuff?
Amazon anymore?
Cancel your Amazon account NOW and never buy again.
You got your stuff elsewhere before. You can again
You got your books elsewhere before. You can again

Prime membership is a ripoff.
