I get it, you may absolutely need to buy something from Amazon at some point, but try not to and pay a little more to source it from someone not trying to destroy democracy and not worth $250B and pays his people peanuts.
"Boycotting an online superstore is possible but can be a little trickier, especially if that store offers products at better prices, with better delivery options, and hold something of a monopoly over the market."

We call Repubs & tell them:
In the Oval Office today, two weak & ignorant men showed No upbringing, No integrity & No sacred honor.
T & V embarrassed themselves in front of the world. But by staying factual & composed, Zelenskyy showed why people admire, love & respect him so very much.
The key to this one is to get as many people to take the first step as possible - it's a recruiting tool. You'll get more people to buy in to harder stuff if they have at least got their feet wet with easy ones.
Go on unlimited strike now : in private companies and public institutions.
Stop producing anything.
Block this country.
Physically. Roads, airports, ports, roads.
Denigrating the small effort only deflates people’s spirit. Think back on the best teachers you had in your youth; did they belittle your efforts, or encourage you?
BLACKOUT FRIDAY!

If you can't do that, join
NO BUY MONDAYS!
OUR ONLY WEAPON IS OUR MONEY.
Let the billionaires follow the money!!!
NO SPENDING>>>>>>>
Costco is on-the-whole very good for policy, despite their Union scandals.
If you need to get gas tomorrow, don't fill the tank, just get as much as you need to get your commute done.
I need bumper stickers, buttons, shirts, billboards and planes with banners flying over bezos’s yacht for this phrase immediately.
But be extra nice to the staff even if you had a bad day. Yes, even if they have a bad day. Get them on your side...
And filling online carts to abandon them does not much to alter the measurement as long as the shopping is not completed. Actually those carts will be deleted automatically after a while of inactivity, usually after 24-48 h.
I’m tired of waiting. We need to protest EN MASSE so the country and world will see how many are opposed to Trump and MAGA.
LETS ROLL!!!
As should everyone.
Both organizers are on Bluesky.
5050.1 have a website w/ more info.
Denson is on youtube, & worth watching!
how will this help? I'm ready to be astounded, but not sure how it'll help.
Make it a month and then I think we'd make some traction.
I'd rather they be a better company and still work well.
Blocked them all!
Tomorrow receives not one penny.

I fueled my truck today, I can put off groceries until Saturday or Sunday, but Walmarts tend to be the only places with room for a semi, and I only Über in the direst of emergencies.
📅 March 7-14 – Amazon Boycott
📅 March 21-28 – Nestlé Boycott
📅 April 7-14 – Walmart Boycott
📅 April 18 – Economic Blackout #2
📅 June 3-9 – Target Boycott
Nestlé is hard, but it can be done. At least try folks.
24/7 365
Their heinous behavior reaches back decades: duplicitous marketing of infant formula (especially in Africa)which led to the deaths of hundreds of thousands of babies.
Oh, and according to a Nestlé executive, "there's no right to water".
That being said, it's very easy to find one Nestle item that you buy regularly and swap it out for a different brand. Over time these actions add up
Fuck Nestle
Most companies own other companies,
or in partnership with companies.
Most fast-food restaurants buy from
those same companies. i.e.,
You ain't eatin' any food &
you ain't drinkin' beverages including
coffee & other such adult beverages. 🤣

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Nestl%C3%A9_brands
Fortunately I don't regularly use any of the brands in the Wikipedia article. Easily avoidable.
Make your voices heard!
The message I’m spreading is that when we all go back out on March 1st, #shopsmall
I planned on donating a bunch of things to a local animal shelter I support, because it’s not just time we can use to kneecap billionaires!
Have a great one
2 x happy meals @ $4.59 = 9.18
2 x Quarter Pdr. meals @ $5.39 = $10.78
Total not inc. tax = $19.96
You're right - that's pretty cheap. Let's see what a homemade version would be ...
4 buns - $2.50
1/2 lb. cheese slices - $2.50
pkg. frozen fries - $5.99
2 liter coke - $3.25
small ketchup - $2.50
Total - $26.74
I get your point, but in my area. My cost are a bit higher. A pound of ground beef is $10, slices of cheese is over $3 etc.
Excuse my language, but… quei nazisti devono vaffanculare
Dobbiamo restare uniti, proprio come abbiamo fatto nei momenti difficili, affinché non ci sia di nuovo il nazismo o fascismo
Mi piace anche cucinare pasti dannatamente buoni. 😁
Sono preoccupato che diventerà più difficile comprare verdure qui, ma farò del mio meglio con quello che ho.
Mi piacciono anche i dolci! 😋
I’m not bilingual but fairly fluent in a second language, also not Italian. The online translators are fun and helpful.
I will do what I can, and perhaps this little change will create ripples in the pond.
I will not stay silent in the face of evil, and Nazis are evil - no matter what name they choose to call themselves these days.
We must all fight evil wherever and however we can - and there is nothing more evil than cruelty.
I’m not sure how DMs work on BlueSky - I’m pretty new here, and not terribly deft with social media.
I do ship to the US on request
If you know how to send a DM, I’d be happy to chat - or you can visit

Tomorrow you can go to https://indivisible.org and ask for information on your local chapter. Or just donate. Each of us must do our part.

We're all in! 💙🚫💰
*face goes slack*
I don't need to buy anything tomorrow. I am not spending anything at all.
The new shit down economics is even worse.
Time for some ETR economics.
Eat the Rich Economics.
Billionaires are the problem.
We are strong enough.
A day does nothing.
A protest is not supposed to be comfortable. I am embarrassed, seeing all of these blackout one day events.
I’m a long time activist that knows too well how people go back after ONLY giving up so little.
I do hear what you were saying though, thank you.
I just can’t with it.

Look around your own city, buy Ukrainian when possible.
Kitty not included.
At least it gives me a little sense of power 🤷♀️instead of just taking the punches
You can stop projecting yourself, little fairy queen
Yes! Use your consumption dollars to express your values!!
No! Don’t whine to the government to get them to force entrepreneurs to invest THEIR capital the way YOU want them to and sell where YOU want them to!
If you wanted me to give a shit what you had to say, try having an opinion that isn't completely stupid.
It starts and ends with a market.
The American people love our neighbors to the north.
