through the end of this month? That includes Prime Video, Kindle, Whole afoods, and all Amazon-held companies.

Ah, come on. I’m interested in finding out how many people can live for that long without Amazon.
No bullshit in Tesla plummeting. Do you doubt it?

Anyone participating in the boycott of all things Amazon
what's the rationale for this? i try and minimize my amazon purchases just because i disagree with the bullshit cost increases in the free shipping threshold. i also cant stand bezos as a person. he's absolutely brilliant as a business visionary but garbage as a decent guy. -

Send a message regarding Amazon’s decision to end diversity, equity and inclusion efforts at the company. It is believed that if enough people participate, it will shake up the system.
Other such boycotts for big retailers are scheduled through this year.

The boycott against Amazon here in DE is going on for many years.
Mainly because of the poor working conditions, but also because of the flood of trash caused by the convenience of online ordering (wrapping).
And then there's the typical
shark strategy
of such companies.
Combined with tax-saving models that can hardly be distinguished from tax evasion.
Of course, Amazon isn't the only one responsible for the waste flood.
And no, that doesn't make other companies with the same behaviour look any better.
Greetings to Google, Ireland (tax fraud). ☻
Well, some German companies can also apply for the
Economic Raspberry Award
.
But I won't name them out of local patriotism…

!
However, many here continue to order from Amazon
because
it's so convenient and often cheaper.
They should simply be deprived of the right to vote.
Just kidding…Hmmm…not really.
The last time I ordered something from Amazon is about 10 years ago.

Should I be insulted?
That's up to you.
Conspiracy theory *** Conspiracy theory *** Conspiracy theory
In the center of all (social media) sits a single old man.
Like a spider in a web he waits for his prey.
Caught in his web he sucks out the mind of people and assimilates them to his WWW.
At the end you solely talk with one old bored man playing mindgames.

So, next time you need surgery, you'll select your surgeon based on gender/race rather than success rate? "Rules for thee but not for me".
Best of luck on your little boycott, Karen. Keep us posted on how it goes! -

Nowhere did I say I was participating.
That was in answer to someone who asked what the boycott is about.
This is how problems are created.

I boycott them 10 months out of the year. The times I need something I get the pr*me membership for the free shipping then cancel. Fucker's packages all go to the post office here instead of home address.

Probably. When I have to waste money on gasoline to go there I see everybody else picking up their boxes too with that stupid logo which is Bezo's dick.

It was always going to be this giant company created by the government. Like Musk, Gates, Zuckenborg, he's told to take the credit because he's a mason (amay zon).

Only by default as I do with all other boycotts since I rarely buy/support corporations.
I did get an A-Z gift card for Xmas and should buy stuff with it soon.
Which means it’s not my $ going to them and they would get it eventually anyway.
In any case I really don’t give a **** to boycott them even though I sorta am but not on purpose.
Thank you for the nudge/reminder to order some things from them soon!
