    Hitting capitalists in the wallet is the only way to get them to change course.

    Doesn’t matter what our ‘demands’ are or what they need to ‘listen to’ and we don’t need a perfectly written manifesto to protest these fucks destroying lives and our country’s support systems.

    Don’t fall for the whiners saying it won’t do anything. If the wheels stop turning, even for a couple days, it will hurt the things they care about (money) and send a powerful message.

      It won’t do anything.

      Whatever people don’t buy on the 15th will simply be bought on the 16th.

      Guaranteed the capitalists you’re trying to contact won’t even notice.

          Oh my sweet summer child.

          This is hyperbole which doesn’t help anyone.

          “Fighting” at every opportunity just runs you down. As in all things you need to pick your battles and I fear that this isn’t the right one to pick.

            Take your patronizing elsewhere. I’m almost 50 and a military veteran. I have no time for weak minded people or propagandists trying to get everyone to lay down and accept what’s going on.

            In fact why are you even posting in this sub if you just want to do nothing? Suspect.
