I can virtue signal and say that I have never bought anything from Amazon. They seem like a monopoly. I buy junk from eBay who are probably just as big of liberal goons. And my boycott of Target goes on to infinity…

I doubt the trade war with China will last longer than did Covid pandemic and global trade shutdown.
In the meantime, people can buy off eBay or go to a thrift or antique store. Think about how much stuff people have in storage units that could be resold.
The idea is to realign US supply chains away from China. We can’t build up the CCP and Chinese army by buying their toys and tee shirts.
Already Apple is using this time to move iPhones assembly to India.
And more production is coming back domestically every day.

EBay is a wide variety of sellers all over the US, many of them selling out of their garage or a shack in the back yard. I’m sure their political views range all over the spectrum, although they’re 100% opposed to VERO abuse.
