Lefties are passing around this 'Economic Blackout' scheduled for Feb 27, brought to you by "The Peoples Union." I think I will delay some purchases, online and in person, for that date. :D

The 24 hour Economic BlackoutAs our first initial act, we turn it off.
For one day we show them who really holds the power
WHEN:
Thursday February 27th from Midnight till Friday The 28th Midnight
(A full 24 hours of the 28th)
12:00 AM to 12:00 AM
WHAT NOT TO DO:
Do not make any purchases
Do not shop online, or in-store
No Amazon, No Walmart, No Best Buy
Nowhere!
Do not spend money on:
Fast Food
Gas
Major Retailers
Do not use Credit or Debit Cards for non essential spending
WHAT YOU CAN DO:
Only buy essentials of absolutely necessary
(Food, Medicine, Emergency Supplies)
If you must spend, ONLY support small, local businesses.
SPREAD THE MESSAGE
Talk about it, post about it, and document your actions that day!
WHY THIS MATTERS!
~ Corporations and banks only care about their bottom line.
~ If we disrupt the economy for just ONE day, it sends a powerful message.
~ If they don't listen (they wont) we make the next blackout longer (We will)
This is our first action.
This is how we make history.
February 28th
The 24 Hour Economic Black Out Begins.
Begins.
That’ll teach that Jeff Bezos!!!
The People’s Union? If that isn’t a Communist sounding organization, I don’t know what is.
Great plan. They don’t even say whether it’s for those hours in the Eastern time or the time zone you live in.
LOL that is about as smart as telling people not to buy gas on a certain day so everyone fills up the day before or after. Net loss 0
I remember when the feminists were going to screw up the economy by flooding it with Susan B. Anthonys. I’m pretty sure that caused Black Monday.
Great day to do my shopping!
Thanks, loony lefties!
BTTT
That’s great. Stab the people making $12.50 an hour, Dems.
Big protest today in my blue state town.
A guy and his girlfriend were holding a sign saying “enough is enough”
Had a plenty pleasant conversation with these 20 something’s. They were both polite and cordial.
I started by asking her what she’d done to him? lol.
Rather odd we don’t see antifa, blm, or any rent a mobs? I suspect the left has a different plan this time.
Any idea why they want to do this? What are they complaining about?
What about Starbucks? I can’t function without my Venti extra hot triple shot vanilla latte with extra foam.
This is great!
It will amount to less than a sputter.
When it fails, miserably, it will demoralize the left even more!!
FBI = The People’s Union ?
Challenge accepted. Let’s turn this around on them and show them who wields the power.
Sounds like a great opportunity for us to finally convince corporations that they should be listening to the side of common sense instead of the looney left.
I buy so much at AMZ that I have free Prime. I’ll buy 3x as much that day as I usually do. Can’t have too much cat food, toilet paper, or vitamins.
This will be a big nothing.
““Hi! Can I get a venti iced caramel macchiato with extra caramel drizzle, 1 pump of vanilla syrup, 1 pump of hazelnut syrup, 2 pumps of cinnamon dolce syrup, 3 pumps of toffee nut syrup, 1 pump of brown sugar syrup, with oat milk instead of regular milk, no ice, and 1 shot of blonde espresso, shaken with 2 pumps of cold brew concentrate, a splash of heavy cream, and topped with vanilla sweet cream cold foam? Also, can you add a dash of cinnamon, a sprinkle of nutmeg, and a few extra toffee nut pieces on top? And can you make it extra sweet, and stir it all together before serving?””
I heard it was actually on the 29th.
.
It’s early innings. I hope the discoveries reach folks who don’t usually pay attention. We need the good will of an overwhelming majority to give Congress the courage to make the big changes we need.
