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

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.

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

Dude, same. It’s been about ten years since my wife and I stopped buying from amazon. Never have I had a problem finding the things I need on eBay or Craigslist or straight from the seller.
Just order some new headphones directly from Lenovo that were the exact price as on amazon and even had free two day shipping and don’t require me to have an account. Great, no issues.
For other things, people for the love of god please buy used and local as much as you can. I live in a smaller town and can find soooooo much shit locally. Not everything but I’d say most everyday things!

I will admit it's been super convenient if I need shampoo or toner or drinks or dozens of other things to just take 60 seconds to order it from Amazon and it's here in a couple days. Well it used to be. Now things often take many days to ship. I canceled Prime about 6 months ago.

That’s so stupid. Boycott only works if it’s indefinite, because you want the company to try to win you back.
If you say that you are coming back, what exactly are you expecting to happen? They’ll change nothing because you already said that you are coming back

WTF are you buying from Temu? Maybe it's just me, but I prefer actual products, not literal garbage.
-
You just listed things that you can pick up at any number of local stores. That stupid convenience of ordering crap instead of just adding it to the shopping list is why people think going a week without using Amazon will "disrupt the system." This is exactly the problem.

It was. Explain why I should be confident that the money will still be there IF I get to retire?
