    Sounds like we’re all to blame. Maybe we really should consider boycotting Amazon and Walmart to stop people from relying on exploitative corporations for daily life. Talk to neighbors and coworkers to share excess commodities with each other. Maybe you might meet a soap-maker, a gardener, a hunter or beekeeper. You might be handy or a problem solver to help someone else out.

      Ansonsten margins on their b2c shit are super thin. They’ll just lay off and slow down operations. Their real money is from AWS where by some estimates over half of the internet is running on.

      You have a generation of kids who get anxiety just at the prospect of talking to people. I appreciate your suggestion, but if you need a new uniform to return to work in 3 days, this isn’t a practical solution.

      Practical is what works. It’s why the Kimmel boycott of Disney worked at all. Cancelling was easy, accessible, and didn’t cost any money. That’s why it happened at all.
