Apr. 5th, 2025 02:22 amIt's a little too late for me to be posting this but there are very important protests going on across the country starting tomorrow to fight back fascism in this country's government. The movement is on Reddit under 50501. The main event is on Washington DC. I urge you to keep up with that community on Reddit!!! Protesting works!!!! It has been the only thing to work not only in the history of our country but other countries as well. Please consider showing up or supporting in anyway you can!! We want to try and avoid another civil war but if it came down to that I will be fighting, I'm not going to bend my knees to something I can not stand.
Also consider:
1) Deleting all social media apps belonging to the billionaires. Not just Elon Musk but FB, Amazon, and keep an eye on TikTok because Amazon guy is trying to buy it. Research what other apps they have their greedy arms in. Do not make it easy for them to make money off of you aka your data!!!! You can still use them on a PC but clean out your cookies and cache every time you do.
2) I have not found a good alternative to Instagram yet but I don't care anymore. I'm gonna make a Bluesky eventually a long with my own website. I'll use Tumblr too since they aren't infected by greed just yet. I'm still going to post here too.
3) Buy from smaller chains/businesses when you can. Try to avoid big chains and grocery stores - like Walmart, McDonald's, Coors especially - but I understand sometimes it's unavoidable. I'm not gonna hunt you down for it. But I'm just saying, be aware they are part of the problem of billionaires lobbying and controlling our government. Research all of the companies that are problematic and make your business choices from there. I'd argue to even buy from Canada instead at this point.
4) Support human talent and artists. Look up to see what businesses/companies/movie franchises/video games... Etc support AI and do not give them the time of day anymore. MONEY TALKS. I know it's hard sometimes but we can only beat greed by not buying into their bullshit. Look at Nintendo. They are making it so we can't buy their games used anymore and instead have to buy it for the full price of $80. I understand they have always been kind of slimy but once again, they don't learn anything if you throw all their money at them constantly.
Remember people, WE have the power, WE have to be the resistance. Please think about this post. Think about all the ways you can help and spread the word. The more people that boycott the rich, the harder they squirm. Don't enable them and their terrible business practices.
Thank you for reading this if you did. My country is in actual danger and we need all the help we can get.
