tomorrow, don't shop.
join me and millions of others for a twenty-four hour economic boycott.
On Friday 2/28, don’t buy anything.
You already know how I feel about boycotts, but just in case you need a refresher, here’s the gist:
Boycott’s work, so join in already!
Tonight at midnight, we shut off the flow of money.
We don’t use our credit cards.
We don’t fill up our cars with gas.
We don’t buy fast food.
We don’t shop online.
We continue, or begin, to say no to Amazon and Walmart and Best Buy and all of the corporations that exploit workers and consumers, that bend the knee to a maniacal government, that greedily accelerate the climate crisis at all of our peril.
Disrupting the economy for even only twenty-four hours sends a powerful message and all we have to do is…nothing.
Don’t sit this one out, friends, and please feel very free to forward this reminder email to every single person you know!
Wow.
So lucky to "know" you.
This went great with energizing post-nap afternoon coffee btw. I am SO fired up to not shop. I did NOT see this coming either. So thanks. Commitment is contagious.
My prime subscription ran out Feb 28, and I chose not to renew. My kids are sad because they like the shows, but it is better for the world in the long run.
