I kept my subscription in January hoping to support journalists like you. Today I cancelled it. I'm so very sorry for all the journalists at the Post and I truly wish you the best. We are also cancelling Prime. Bezos is on the wrong side of history. The story isn't over!
Guess you got out just in time. As a reader dating to when Meg Greenfield (who I’m sure is rolling in her grave) ran that ship, I’m devastated. I’m so sorry for you and the others in that section.
Still returning items to Amazon, one at a time . They just finished picking them up. Not buying through Amazon the cat food for rescues, costs a bit more but the neighbourhood pet store gets my business,
Love Mackenzie Scott. 🇨🇦💖🇺🇦
If the neighborhood pet store knows you are a steady customer they might give you a bit of a discount. Esp if you tell them it's for rescue cat support. That's the fun thing about local businesses is you can chat up the owner and maybe mutually beneficial things can happen
They are brand new location this year. They even deliver my order to me, I just call them up. Sidewalk is too icy for my walker.
Looking forward to getting there on my own in spring.
This pet store is at the end of my street. It’s a young woman who has opened this new location. I’m hoping she is successful as several various businesses have failed at that spot. I generally shop locally by walker.
Good call, I forgot I had it after watching The Boys. Cancelled! Never really pirated much before, but rather doing that for next season than picking up anything by Bezos
The only way to take this is to show how individual freedom and free markets cannot exist without regulations and support programs for environment protection, sustainable development and DEIA. They will cannibalized themselves otherwise.
Or is to go away and see if free market will take care of it.
What will it take for people to STOP giving any of their money to Amazon, Prime, Washington Post, Audible, Zappos, Ring, Alexa and Whole Foods? Target has crashed out, try really boycotting all things Bezos.
Bozo bought WaPo for $250 million. I am sure enough concerned citizens could cough up that amount of money to save the institution from the robber barons #brokenpost
You know that light bulb will never be replaced because the person who would be in charge of it was more than likely let go for not responding to a work email over a weekend.
Talk to me like I’m stupid because I don’t get it.
How does Jeff’s ( the other Jeff) support for free markets align with MAGA policies?
MAGA is pro-tariff, not free markets.
Am I missing something?
Or does Jeff mean something else?
(Again, that other Jeff)
Thanks
Jeff
I've kept my subscription to this point primarily because I valued reading @pbump.com, @crampell.bsky.social, and Aaron Blake. That has changed. I can no longer justify financially supporting a media entity whose owner dictates opinion content. Subscription cancelled.
Bezos's memo this morning that he's MAGA-izing the Post's opinion section. Not only is Bump's job probably gone or going, but it's also a huge betrayal of the outlet's readership, most of whom oppose Trump. I've canceled my subscription over it.
Democracy died in plain sight. It was telegraphed to the world in a heritage foundation document, and the guy leading the charge already attempted to kill it when he lost an election.
However, the collective hive mind of America decided it was worth it to punish the woke and trans people.
Your owner is a small, narrow, greedy little man who believes the resources of this entire nation should be bent toward further enriching him, despite fact that there is not enough money in the world to compensate for the black hole created when his soul imploded. He is empty, vulgar and unAmerican.
Also need Carol
Leonig. Her work uncovering the Secret Service criminality, Trump’s illegal operations in the WH and in business and more is critical asset.
Sorry Philip. I like your stuff. I can see you have tried to shape something in the Post since your job change, and expressed yourself here honestly. It sucks.
Lol. The clapback for that non-endorsement decision was sudden and vicious.
It's feeling like sports team territory, where lifelong fans love many players but hate ownership and vent that hate every game... hoping the dbags sell the franchise.
It's possible to live Amazon free. I understand that there are people who are in poorly serviced areas or are housebound who rely on it, but the majority aren't. Vote against the oligarchy with your dollars.
It's a pain in the butt to wait 30 minutes for somebody at CVS to come unlock the gate so I can get deodorant, rather than buy from Amazon, but if I have to do it for Freedom, I'll do it.
Unfortunately though my company uses AWS as our cloud provider and that is a *really* tough subscription to cancel unless your setup is pretty trivial and that's where a lot of Jeff's bucks come from. :-/
Also, for a company our size (small) and profitability (not good enough) the only real alternatives are Google and Microsoft, which are maybe only marginally better politically. Not going so directly into an evil billionaire's pocket I guess? We def can't manage a move to on-prem.
Morgan, extremely well said. And I feel for you in the impossible non-choices for all of us. It is technologically impossible to entirely drop out of big tech for the vast majority of us
Why don’t these billionaires who hate America just buy their own island instead of terrorizing us? @washingtonpost.com what happened to democracy dies in darkness?
Dear God, you put me here as an honest, humble and reverent woodworker. I will keep supporting my neighbors and community by volunteering. I will continue to have faith in the goodness of people. I will continue to share woodworking tools and expertise. I won't read Gordon Gekko's rag
Start covering every move and word from every one of those idiots. THAT is news. Every "no comment". Repeat the lede.
Still no word from
Break every maggot dick move into bite sized news briefs. Fact. Source. Confirm. Dig down in the beast and start collecting unnamed sources.
I know. They are so incredibly stupid. They could keep their money and their power if they weren't so draconian and public. But, no, they all seem to come equipped with Billionaire Derangement Syndrome.
We were Post subscribers for 3 decades but canceled after Bezos started kissing Trump's a$$. I hope all of you good people who work there can find a new position with a respectable news source!
Write columns on how our monopolies are anathema to the innovation and creative destruction that the Free Market is supposed to beget.
Or how the the creative world of merchandising toys with the insecure idle rich having them buy HGHs, TRT, and clothes that are made to look ridiculous on them.
Philip, you are one of the good ones and one of the brave ones. Thanks for all you do. But staying now surely isn't an option. Will follow you wherever you end up.
I will continue to insist, that Trump needs to be taken literally, because he can not hold an enema. He will let everything out when you least expect it. Trump continuously stated the country is being destroyed from within. He said it more than once, anyone who has taken the time to learn
How he operates would have guessed that it was his intention. Once Project 2025 was disclosed, we knew it was out of his tiny hands. He has nothing to do with what is going on- he is just the “front” like the store fronts used in NYC to deceive police from illegal activities. Like he said-
@pbump.com writes for the Washington Post, does tons of seriously good work, and very recently made a move from the news side to the opinion side of the publication.
This is not a good day for him, many colleagues, the DC area, or the USA.
I think it’s time for all the journalists with integrity at WAPO to either run him out or start your own paper. It’s won’t be easy, but atleast you won’t have to answer to a terrible fool.
What's going on is your cough buddy donated million or so to a fascist. Can't imagine working there. Pity you, but families can't run on aurt. Wish you well, don't give up on the half of America that hasn't and never will bend the knee.
I don't think they're doing great either.
Recently they pretended that "Trump will make Bitcoin useful" and glorified Navarro as "a general".
Pretty stunning how fast the media joins the bizarro universe.
Yes, it’s so depressing to see the media help the Dictator-In-Chief create his alternative reality. They were supposed to be the last bulwark between liberal democracy and autocracy.
Dear Supporters, I need your help more than ever! 🙏

The most annoying thing is that Bazbo needs to chop out a paragraph and edit several sentences. What a boring writer. You'd think with all his billions he could hire a social media editor.

(Nick Galifianakis is doing political commentary under the radar, what happens when he gets the ax or his cartoons have to be pre-approved?)

He and his kids better fucking hide.
Cancel Prime memberships and WaPo subscriptions.
It's his right to crawl up Felon 47's morbidly obese ass; It's our right to choose not to do business with Jeffrey anymore.

c'mon, Philip, your posts are too important, and daily we're all on edge here! 😂
Let ‘er rip!
I’m going to go with “Sweetie, democracy went to go live on a farm…in darkness. “

Hmmm...I don't think he'll save it.
Dan presents this as a problem for Democrats but I think it's a problem for all of us including the media.

Give The Onion a run for it's money?
OK that one, I get it now.
This is not a good day for him, many colleagues, the DC area, or the USA.
Wish him well and look forward to ... whatever.
WTAF is right
I’m incensed over this abomination.
Washington Post to choose which opinions to print.
Nothing to see here....
This is all of us

No. It was not a dream.
