There’s going to come a point when the things we can’t say may need to be said. A time when the message is delivered with blank comments.

[ . . . ] will carry a message of it’s own that becomes much more difficult to ban.

Shit like this makes me glad to have left that dumpster fire long ago.

I live in a small town in Alaska, more than 300 miles from the nearest decently sized city. It’s been more than two years since I’ve given Amazon a single dime. You’ll manage if you care enough to try.

You just listed things that you can pick up at any number of local stores. That stupid convenience of ordering crap instead of just adding it to the shopping list is why people think going a week without using Amazon will “disrupt the system.” This is exactly the problem.

Too fucking bad, shitstick. When the ship sinks I hope he’s chained to the fucking mast.

Do you guys really rely on Amazon so much that one week without feels like a protest? Seriously?

The problem I’ve found with the “Buy nothing days” is that it’s not really encouraging buying less. With the possible exception of a few in the moment things, it’s really just pushing purchasing to the day before or the day after. Someone seeing economic data for that specific day might notice something, but even just factor in the day before and the day after and it’s not going to make much of a difference. It didn’t cost the corpos anything, so they won’t even notice.

All the cruelty and hate, all the blatant lies and rampant criminality, that’s fine as long as he wasn’t lying about that one thing, right up until it’s her turn to get hurt and it turns out liars lie.

“Things can always get worse” is a pretty shit justification to say things aren’t bad now.
