Ironically, Prime is where The Man in the High Castle adaptation came from.
Wouldn’t a buycot make more sense? Companies losing business will just blame it on the economy. Companies performing better than their competitors would be most likely to make the correlation.
Involuntary boycott cause no one can afford jack shit rn
I don’t think companies ever sincerely embraced DEI: it was fashionable to gesture superficially at it & raise share value until it wasn’t?
Companies go along where the social pendulum swings. Only few companies genuinely care of social progress.
So continue what a lot of us were already doing?
Yeah but it’s trendy now and will be for two or maybe even three whole days.
2 or 3 days won’t even register on a weekly report if people buy the products that they didn’t buy after the 3 days.
Just quit using them altogether. It is inconvenient and it is more expensive but making a stand should have a price. Otherwise it would have been just a sensible decision.
That’s exactly how I feel. I don’t use amazon and beyond a 6 month blip during covid never have. It’s incredibly inconvenient so a great way to reduce my consumption.
Hey, remember when millions of people didn’t buy anything for a single day in protest to show how much power they had and hurt the corporations in the wallets?
Remember the next day when millions of people then bought the stuff they waited a day for.
Yeah, like, I canceled Prime nearly a year ago now and just shop elsewhere. I only buy from companies with shitty policies like these if there’s no other realistic option (e.g. when something is only available on Amazon :/).
Also, sail the high seas.
I checked a local store that said they closed their doors to the public and online orders only. Ok, I thought. I’ll just order what I want and swing by. No. The order link sent me to Amazon and they only do it through them. Not even will-call it turns out. I gave up and figured I can live without it anyway.
The ol’ ostracize as many customer demographics as possible strategy. Bold, let’s see how it works out for em.
I’m doing my part! I’ve boycotted them already for supporting the fascist dictator who threatened my country.
Let’s not buy anything from them even harder!!
All parking lots with flock surveillance systems should be boycotted, at a minimum.
Dont forget all Amazon Ring cameras are part of Flock now.
Fuck me they’re everywhere
Be a real shame if you accidentally backed into one of those camera systems and knocked it over, too.
I’m pretty sure Target has been losing money and has even gotten a new CEO, so clearly what we’ve already been doing has been working. Save yourself money anyway.
We have 3 targets, they have all went way down hill in the last year. They are dirtier, less cashiers, empty shelves, bad produce, and stale bakery. They employees all seem miserable as well.
Unless the trend continues, a lot of companies take losses in a quarter where there is a new CEO, so that way they can blame it on the last guy
tgt’s last quarterly loss (negative net income) was over a decade ago, and it was just one quarter.
If we stopped spending and went on a “hunger” strike. Don’t buy anything for a month. Only buy necessities food for children, the elderly, pets. And simply not buy more than that the corporations would fold over easy. We would add more stress if we stopped going to work at the same time. But what do I know?
this is my plan as well. my actual vote doesn’t seem to matter since neither party gives a shit about the working class, so im voting with my wallet.
You say that like people aren’t already starting to do that, out of necessity.
Love an organized boycott!
Why do we have to toe the line while all the Democrats representing us roll over?
Boycotting pro-regime companies is not toeing the line.
Because your Democratic party is right-wing.
