    Does this include boycotting bands that charge excessive amounts for tickets? Plenty of small local bands around.

    No gas? What if I need gas?
  • pjl44pjl44 Posts: 9,985
    Or is that "no fast-food gas" like "no Taco Bell?"

    I'm on board for boycotts of Amazon and Walmart forever. Target can suck it too. Support the local co-ops and businesses.

    Then you get it the next day, along with all the other stuff you wanted. Which makes moves like this not even symbolic on paper.

    There are longer boycotss planned that I hope people take part in. This has to be increased to 24 days, at least with retailers since gas would be impossible for most people to boycott that long. This is a start though. We have to start standing up to billionaires and the quid pro quo in chief.
    It's a hopeless situation...

    Trolling the Porch?  Hmmm, sounds like some kind of bad personality atmosphere to me.  Too bad.

    Anyway, great move, PJ, thanks!

    Actually, a lot of small businesses depend on Amazon sales…
  • julieooliernjulieooliern Posts: 434
    Ahhh yes, but you can go to Amazon to see those products from those small companies/find out who they are, then purchase from them directly outside of Amazon. Like pre-Amazon times!

    Actually, it's a movement, not a "cause", and it that was spearheaded by The People's Union USA.  And no, the don't have a "shop".
    Nice try with the trolling though.

    Buy on Saturday if you want the mug. $24.99 is overpriced for a t shirt? Those Red Hats cost Americans a lot.
