You should be every day voting with your wallet to prevent money flowing into the wrong hands. Boycott these ALEC members who non-stop fund the republican war chests:

  • FedEx
  • UPS
  • Motorola
  • Anheuser Busch
  • American Express
  • Chevron
  • Marlboro
  • Sony
  • Texaco
  • Boeing (fly on Airbus instead)

Quit driving. It’s not just the fuel burn that harms the environment. When you buy fuel, you fund the oil companies who fund republicans. Trump’s 4th biggest cash source came from oil giants. There is nothing worse for the environment than republicans.

Find out which companies funded Trump’s war chest directly, and boycott them.

There is likely a long list of banks. Banks love republicans in general. We need to get that list and get people off those banks. People should be using cash anyway since banks finance fossil fuels, private prisons, and republicans. In the very least, if you give a shit and you are not a deadbeat then you will avoid using these banks.

(edit) Home Depot, Disney, …, probably others. That’s a long article not an easy list so work required.

grab your wallet is an election cycle out of date, and sadly it’s in Google docs (so use Tor). But it still has a bit of relevance.

Europeans— You can take these actions too. You couldn’t vote for Kamala but you always have the power to vote with your feet.

    Not to say I completely disagree with you, but searches for “did Joe Biden drop out” spiked on Election Day. A lot of people think Trump wrote all the checks for Covid aid out of his personal checking account. A vast swath of the American people simply have no clue what’s going on, what anything is or what’s about to happen.

        Bingo. But that’s better directed at @sxan@midwest.social. @PhilipTheBucket@ponder.cat is merely expressing reality of the problem.

        Inspiring people to keep feeding republican war chests and to NOT take action is detrimental.

          You mentioned FedEx and UPS. That’s basically every package dealer. No e-commerce, no sending items to loved ones, no freight whatsoever.

          The whole “vote with your wallet” thing is drivel concocted by those in power to convince us to not overthrow them, peacefully or otherwise. The billionaires have immense wallets and there’s no true competition for the common person to actually exercise any power with their wallet. It’s a fallacy.

            I have not used FedEx and UPS for like 15 years now. Boycotting Amazon really helps because it essentially boils down to buying local.

            No e-commerce, no sending items to loved ones, no freight whatsoever.

            Not true. USPS ships pkgs.

            In one very rare circumstance where I bought online in the past 15 yrs, the seller had a field for notes on the order form. I wrote something like “You do not say how you ship this. Please ship it USPS or DHL, or if that is not possible then cancel my order. Thanks.” They shipped it USPS.

            The whole “vote with your wallet” thing is drivel concocted by those in power

            Those in power love you for saying this. You could not advocate for them better than this boot-licking drivel.

              What keeps boycotts from working is the want for convenience and laziness; you are 100% correct. It is a choice. No one said it is the easy choice.

                Right, I’m sure those in power love when people advocate for a violent uprising.

                You seem to have no idea what “boycott” means. A boycott is a peaceful action.

        Google says it went from “0” to “100”, hovering from 50 to 100 for a lot of election day. I have no idea what that means.
