Have you done any de-platforming?

I deleted my Facebook profile (even though I had hardly used it in years).

Last week I cancelled my YouTube TV.

I just switched away from AT&T for my smart phone.

This phone is the last Apple product I will ever buy.

I already used DuckDuckGo instead of Google.

I deleted Safari and Mozilla and switched to Brave.

I didn't ever buy much from them but now I've deleted my Amazon account entirely.

After finding out the owner is a Leftist, I've bought my last coffee from Black Rifle Coffee.

I closed my Bank of America account a year ago when they came out as anti gun.

I switched away from Turbo Tax about a year ago when they came out as anti gun.

I'm currently looking for a good alternative to paypal.

I have not been shy about telling any of these companies that going woke has costs. Have you started purging Leftist companies from those you buy from?

If you’re talking cellphones I’ve got a Motorola phone I like.

I’m back to using Free Republic for a news source, Gab and dedicated news sources with their own URL.
It’s no use trying to reason with liberals on Facebook although I do reach some people that are truly inquisitive.
So I’m being careful not to post what is not important and post only selected links such as Hillary Clinton with the images and memes I’m allowed to use on my own site.
I’ll comment on this Hillary post with other significant links such as Hillary Clinton did her thesis on Saul Alinsky, There is Only the Fight. https://nukegingrich.files.wordpress.com/2007/08/hillaryclintonthesis.pdf
And Hillary and the Black Panthers: The Real Story

Then in Facebook news I’ll say something like ‘All liberals are violent’.
It annoys them enough to where they click on my name and see all my backup data.

All social media accounts deactivated.
No cable tv and cancelled Netflix.
Amazon is absolutely last resort place to purchase.
VPN router installed.
My Google pixel 4A arrives tomorrow and I’ll be installing GrapheneOS to completely degoogle my phone.

Use your purchasing power and disinformation (AI chaff) to weaken big tech and Hollyweird.

I got rid of Twitter. On my phone, switched to duckduckgo. Will end Amazon Prime in February.

Yes, removed WhatsApp, owned by Facebook and replaced it with Signal. Never had any of the other nonsense to begin with.

Black Rifle Coffee? I vaguely remember reading something about one of the owners being liberal, or they supported something liberal. Hmmm...

I de-platted Twatter although I never used it. Have Farcebook but only use it to check on enemy periodically and then suspend it until next time. It’s a mecca for Olympic class losers near as I can tell.

After finding out the owner is a Leftist, I've bought my last coffee from Black Rifle Coffee.

Evan Hafer, the CEO of Black Rifle Coffee, does not agree that he is a leftist, despite the circumstantial evidence.

I am now analyzing every dollar I spend with scrutiny.

I’m cancelling services with those I deem anti American. I refuse to use Amazon for anything. My spouse is transitioning from her web hosting services from godaddy to another provider.

I’m trying to spend all money at local sneak retailers.

I’m done feeding the beasts.

Black Rifle Coffee?

See post #33. The Black Rifle CEO pushes back on the accusations, well enough that if I bought Black Rifle Coffee, I would not stop.

During the disco craze I played banjo in platform boots, linen disco wide flaired and cuffed slacks, and rayon WIDE collared shirts.

Later on I de-platformed and moved to cowboy boots & western wear...

I guess I thought I was JD Crowe for a while there.

I’m all for it. Some might see it as ‘virtue signaling’ (whoever added the Keyword)

If we all do what we can it will make a difference...look at Fox News’ current market share, down over 50%

Where do you grocery shop, now, without HEB?

Hard to beat their tortilla chips and a few other exclusive type items.

Deleted myself from Twitter. There’s some good people on there but a lot is just the grift. People reaching out that I personally know get the same response. If they don’t want Trump on there then there is no reason for me to be on there.
