I know it's going to be hard but let's boycott buying from Amazon between now and Election Day
I think it’s great people have dropped their subscriptions to the Washington Post. But an Amazon boycott would really send a message and hurt his quarterly earnings. He needs to be sent a message.

Just an idea.

A stupid idea . Good luck. 🙄

Good luck with that, Kimberly, :rotf: . Every Covid-shy DU-Denizen has depended on Amazon to enable them to stay isolated, since 2021 (in 2020 their fears had some underlying substance, but after January 2021 or so, not so much and to increasingly lessening degrees).

I suspect Bezos is trying to stanch the WashPost's bleed of subscribers, but shouldn't DU-Denizen believe he's trying to save himself and his staff from Trump's Prog-Fantasy concentration camps? I mean, if DU-Denzens really believe Trump will mass-incarcerate his opponents ...

Lamest DUmmie boycott ever. The DUmmie only wants to boycott between now and election day. That's won't impact Bezos or Amazon sales even 0.0000000001%.

Cue the classic Happy Fun Ball photo of the DUmmies impact on the economy. But for now, here's another similar one.

They should all load up their Amazon shopping cart and just not complete the purchase. 

That will show them.  :popcorn:

I'm old enough to remember the angst DU used to have over Borders, and how that soulless company was murdering the mom and pop bookstores (which apparently numbered in the millions). Anyone else remember that? How they vowed to buy their lesbian erotica from corner indie bookstores?

Someone upthread said it best: Amazon enables their shut-in lifestyles, so no way are they going away from that. Most of them are out of masks, anyway, and haven't had their ninth covid booster, so how CAN they go out in public?

(postscript: I was at a Sprouts yesterday [involuntarily] and as much as that place has changed, it's still lousy with smug hippie assholes. When we walked in I remarked, 'I bet we see at least a couple of people wearing their ****ing face diapers.' No: there were FIVE. ****ing unreal. Ironically, if any other human touched those petri dishes of effluence and lentil soup remnants, they'd get sepsis and die. But they're keeping liberals saaaaafe  :bird:)

Amazon should encourage this. Consider Progs' CfA boycott, in which the SF Bay Area went from zero CfAs in 2012 to 12 or 15, with more planed in coming years. Or consider Progs' Hobby Lobby boycott, in which Silicon Valley went from zero stores to one at the southern edge of Silicon Valley to a Hobby Lobby store opening soon in southwest San Jose.

    In the early 2000s, the DUmmies used to have get togethers and post pictures of them (this was before they all turned 70+ and became even bigger hermits). Also around that time, every DUmmy was either a vegan or a scold about the American diet (DU used to be way more about culture than now). However, if you looked at the background of the meetup pics, the food tables were stacked with every food they claimed to abhor and avoid at all costs. Now, those backgrounds could be hard to see, because in the FOREGROUNDS of those pics were the DUmmies, who in spite of their sworn ultra-healthy, European diets, nevertheless were as pasty and fat as the "Muricans" they ridicule.

They were all also claiming to have Asperger's syndrome as well if I recall.

     They also claimed that they had genetic disorders that prevented them from losing weight and/or exercising. Amazing how many of them were so afflicted.

buy and cancel

In other words, be dishonest to cost a company money.
