Amazon Boycot March 7-14th | No Purchases. Its time to disrupt the system.

I really liked ebay like 20 years ago. Now at least here, it's just for people dropshipping stuff or sell stuff super overpriced. Like more expensive than new. It's such a weird place.
-
What got me is the upcoming one week Nestle and one week General Mills boycotts... Do the people who came up with these boycotts not realize that the stores that carry those products, already paid for those products? And the rebuttal to any skepticism is that it'll at least get people used to not buying these products or shopping at these places. Do people really need to take baby steps? Is that how much we, as a society, are addicted to buying things? Pat yourself on the back America! Fascism may be quickly on the rise, but good work, you didn't buy Cheerios for a whole week!

To give up the addiction to 1-click buy for a week? And you call this a protest?
I think I understand why orange guy is your president, and feels now that it is exactly the president you deserve. It is just a mirror of how rotten the current society is.
Shitty that it will affect us all. But well, I can only hope we won't have to kill each other in another stupid war.

I avoid them as much as possible purely because their in-house logistics company recently started doing their deliveries here instead of DHL, and they are absolutely terrible. Delivery times range from 7 AM to 9 PM and they just leave the package in front of your door without even ringing the doorbell

hey, come on, this is a good start.
It should be replaced with a complete boycott, but both americans with impulse control will propably boycott amazon. For the rest, it's a great start and you can bet it will not be the last. -
As an euro I also use it rarely but it just has unbeatable price and availability for products sometimes. The only alternative is aliexpress, which isn't a real alternative since China can go get fucked too.

easier to just cancel prime

Suddenly the horrible under any administration piss in a bottle' company is bad?
-
as much as possible
Americans are great at mental gymnastics and making excuses to get out of things when it becomes slightly inconvenient or requires effort.
That's why you lose and keep losing. -
LOL Totally not a scumbag Omidyar company
-
for a week
-
Boycott action, and a smidge of arson.
-
There's always a cost to convenience, but many are not paying attention.

many are not paying attention
Deliberately sticking your head in the sand for some profit or convenience is not the same.
That's an excuse. -
Implicit demands are for mob bosses and boat owners. If you're threatening a corporation you need to be clear and direct.
Less
We are boycotting Amazon products until they stop be bad
More
We are boycotting Amazon products until they make another season of The Expanse
Or whatever. Clear, concrete, demands.

Wait until the 15th to order everything you were going to order this week. That will show them!
-
I really don’t get it either, how much shit do people need!?

A boycott or strike with an end date is seldom effective.
See for instance Reddit
