Amazon Boycot March 7-14th | No Purchases. Its time to disrupt the system.
-
I still can't believe Amazon got away with it.
-
I want mega corps to fail, not spark a great depression.
-
How about an anti-Honey plug in that reminds you not to order when you’re trying to check out.
-
I already pulled my retirement.
-
Or use it as a product search engine, then go to the supplier or an alternate online store to buy the one you want. I don't have it on my phone but do go to it in browser occasionally for that.
-
You can't have change without sacrifice.
-
Way ahead. I deleted my Amazon
-
Yeah that's basically all I used it for over the last year anyway. Any product on Amazon that isn't junk probably has it's own site in my experience
-
I week long boycott will do nothing. If that is the most you are prepared to inconvenience yourself to send a message, then just give up now.
-
Yeah, having like <5% of people put off buying stuff for a week isn't going to do that.
Unfortunately at this point only something fairly world-changing is going to really do much. And it's definitely going to get much worse before it gets better. Prepare for it.
-
Was it not in a 401k or something?
-
Agreed. Better to make it a month or two. This gives you time to find replacement companies and then hopefully never return to Amazon.
-
Did you uninstall it?
-
Great Idea.
Perhaps call it something like:

BoycottBee - Directly stating its purpose as a boycott tool.
Avoidify - Emphasizes the idea of avoiding certain products or brands.
BlanketBan - Suggests a comprehensive avoidance or ban.
NectarNone - Opposite of honey nectar, focusing on avoiding products.

Accelerationism is not the best way forward.
