Here are two companies I won’t be shopping at again. To say I’ve felt powerless in the face of incredible evil and stupidity has been quite the understatement. But I can vote with my wallet. I’m telling myself is that I can’t do everything at once. One thing at a time, one step at a time. 🤷🏻‍♂️👋🏻 - ThreadSky

There's a few apps that help with this. No thanks and Goods Unite Us can help you track what is "safe" to purchase.

I think we've all been stunned at the ugliness of our neighbors as they celebrate these horrors. But the more this gets aired out, the more folks don't like the smell of these times

Thank you for this. Anything to help me learn and figure out how to approach this time is really helpful.

Certainly! Just do your dilligence. If any of the data the apps give you seems suspect, be sure to check. They've been pretty good, but some of the data is older. These types of apps are only as good as their backend, and the conservative version of this concept was duping folks a few years back.

We not fans of Costco, BUT they're one of the good guys and I found out yesterday they deliver for free over $70 I believe.

In Paris, it’s so hard to read the news from the USA. I use to visit the US once or twice a year. I applied for a green card. I still have family and friends there.

What is happening seems so unreal. I love american people. Just not this administration.

Love and resist, even with small steps.

Publix has been terrible for years, even before J6. High prices. Refused to cover domestic partners for health benefits until forced to by Obergefell. Tried to stop employee coverage for PreP. Underpays employees but offers a “stock ownership plan” but employees can’t vote their shares..

A Jenkins family member acts as “trustee” of the plan and votes in the family’s interest. Also tight with GOP government in Tallahassee. They work to keep competitors (Kroger, Safeway, Wegmans) out of the state. Got exclusive distribution of the initial COVID vaccine by Rhonda DeathSentence.

BRAVO! More people in our community should do the same. I vote with my wallet a lot. It's why I don't visit FL or TX or other red states. I avoid Amazon, Meta companies, etc.

I removed the Amazon app from my phone. Once the balance is paid off I am closing the account.
