I haven’t bought anything from Amazon in for fucking ever, I avoid it. It’s not that hard. Avoiding all these shitty warehouse stores is hard, but sometimes it’s the only place that has what I need (no shade to local businesses) I imagine people in rural places have it even harder. Some places the only place you can get groceries is at a Walmart, which is a fucked ho situation to be put in.
Sigh I used to go adafruit for electriconics but they banned me for shipping to my buddy house instead of my billing address. Jerks. Really ruined my hobbies.
I legit can’t live without Amazon because it’s the cheapest / most affordable place to get a lot of stuff, especially groceries in my high COL area. Not to mentiom variety.
This 1 week boycott is doable for me. Not sure how 1 week of reduced revenue is going to impact a company flooded with cash reserves, but I’m happy to do my part.
I dont get why most Amazon protests im hearing from my countrymen are time bound. You’re just saying loudly and proudly “i cant live without amazon”.
Get a backbone, Americans. You dont need Amazon.

Sigh well stores closed. Sears, party city, Joann’s, chunk of malls leaving fewer alternatives. If khols closes I’m screwed for clothes.
Walmart funds heritage foundations so never going there. Besides everything is locked up and disorganized.
My maga fil loves TEMU. Like dude…
Thrift stores, Ross, Costco… You’re not without options my friend.
No Costco near me and never heard of Ross.
Plenty of thrift and dollar stores.
Though I get the spirit of what you are saying driving 30 minutes one way to a specific store is kind of lame.
No, u. pats myself on the back
Not to mention tons of other online stores for pretty much anyth you could want /need.

Uniqlo?
Are they a relatively ethical company? Genuinely curious

Its a class war and you’ve already just resigned. You have options. Research them and stop giving up.
In that case, I resign.
Then I pity you. You happily wear the badge of no fortitude, principle, or resilience. A badge of a coward.
