We knew 🇨🇦 was out-boycotting us, but now 🇪🇺 is beating us at the game, too. TBH, the one-day and one-week boycotts feel performative and empty to me, like we can be bothered but only a little bit. We need an "until further notice" boycott movement. apnews.com/article/denm... - ThreadSky

I’m done with Amazon completely. Haven’t been in a Target since before xmas. I’m not spending and I’m prepared to go this way for a long time. I do support my local restaurants, bars, and small businesses. My way of life from now on. It’s not hard. Corp world declared war when they kissed the ring.

Agreed. I don't know how we get through to people that they need to do more.

As a Dane I can tell you this has a permanent feel to it.

altacadia.bsky.social•53 days ago

We support that! 🇩🇰

Lots of new trading partners will be formed from this bs. Not gonna be great for us back in the 1940s or 1840s or 1740s or wherever maga wants to pull us.

I know we all want to do something, and contacting our senators (still important- do not stop!) feels like it's not producing the results advertised in the brochure. So today, a good act of resistance is to go outside, appreciate the natural world for a moment or for hours, and buy nothing. 🌲

I have been working on my “victory” garden, getting my hands in the dirt and not shopping anywhere if not necessity.

And calling my senators although they are 🔵in🔴

Other than groceries, just about all my buying these days is done at thrift stores & consignment shops. I’ve cut out all the major retailers unless there’s some kind of emergency & no alternative.

Another thing it's time for is to come up with our own cult like hat and scare ye shit out of these Democrats that are fucking us over. It has worked for years on the right. I'm just saying 🤔

I agree. I haven’t purchased anything but groceries for awhile. Been making contributions to the ACLU & Planned Parenthood and my local NPR station.

In Canada, it's "until further notice" and possibly beyond. Once we wean off American products, it will take some serious wooing to bring us back. We'll need to know that US administrations going forward will respect our sovereignty and that MAGA is never coming back. 🇨🇦 👊
