Fat chance! More likely you could get liberals to do this than conservatives.

Stop buying online. Buy local, retail stores, restaurants and local bars. Nothing from Amazon or Walmart.

Easy for me since I've been doing it for a couple of years, as well as working on eliminating all debt.

Go Steve.

Try alternatives instead. Dont withdraw, become successful yourself or become irrelevant and impotant.

That is how you go to Depression...no one buying...more jobs lost...more homes foreclosed...more farms lost.

A Dem Wet Dream.

I agree with this

No upgrades of Apple devices.

Termination of Amazon Prime and Netflix

Essential groceries only. Goya products given priority

Cut back Verizon data plan

Dropped ATT data plan for car.

Far less TV

More . . .

It’s pretty easy actually just buy local and don’t buy national brands or from websites...eventually the loss in revenue will never be replaced by liberals buying their products since liberals don’t buy stuff

Yes, let’s destroy the economy. Let’s hurt middle class workers. Let’s cut off our nose to spite our face.

How about instead, we don’t buy from those who wish to cancel us. Buy from local retailers. Buy from conservatives. Buy American made products. Don’t send your money to Amazon, AT&T, Google and Apple. Don’t visit Facebook, Twitter or Instagram. Don’t watch any content on CNN/CBS/ABC/NBC or their affiliates. Don’t support those who hate you. Support businesses who support, or at least respect you.

It hurt bobo no end that conservatives sat on their wallets for his admin. We all wanted to see him fail, and he did. No reason not to do it again. That Depression ushered in Trump. Why do you think Speaker Antoinette is trying to ban him from public office!

I agree with Steve. In fact I have been saying this for a couple of years.

I agree with Steve with one caveat. Yes, reduce purchases to a minimum but patronize the mom&pops. They have been crushed enough by Covid already.

The big boxes can go to hell. The mom&pops are like family.

Easy. Just don’t shop at Wal-Mart or Amazon. And don’t waste your time at Twitter or Facebook. Now we all need to do that.

To each his own: I prefer to buy, but from conservative or at least quietly neutral businesses.

You could quit buying from Amazon.

But you wont.

Yup. Anyone remember when Bath House was immaculated into office?

Who is John Galt?

Many of us stopped purchasing, only what was truly needed, and as local or 2nd hand as possible. I even stopped charity donations. Saved that to help people we actually know.

So yeah, I’ve been screaming that it’s time to shrug again and still. And NOTHING from China. Please, nothing from China.

Well my wife told me she won’t give up her Amazon Prime nor her Facebook account. Oh well I tried.

“To those of you who retain some remnant of dignity and the will to live your lives for yourselves, you have the chance to make the same choice. Examine your values and understand that you must choose one side or the other. Any compromise between good and evil only hurts the good and helps the evil.

If you’ve understood what I’ve said, stop supporting your destroyers. Don’t accept their philosophy. Your destroyers hold you by means of your endurance, your generosity, your
innocence, and your love. Don’t exhaust yourself to help build the kind of world that you see around you now. In the name of the best within you, don’t sacrifice the world to thosewho will take away your happiness for it”

- John Galt’s speech (excerpt)

I’m in. I’m a partial prepper and have plenty of food, water and everything else. My only remaining vulnerability is art supplies. . .but I just stocked up on those as well.

I have not used Amazon in years and am ready to hunker down and save my money for my children’s inheritance.

I emptied my Amazon shopping cart and canceled my Amazon subscription deliveries. I talked to my wife and she is on board. Not just for this but t also the business and labor practices of the CCP which is essentially the owners of China Inc.

STOP all purchases except absolute essentials

Easy enough for us. That's all we can afford.
