You have the strongest vote there is right in your wallet. (vanity)

The more I discuss it within my circle, the more it comes down to this: we need to vote with our wallets. It will have more effect than anything that happens in DC or the state houses. I promise you, Fox, Facebook, Twitter, and all these other turncoats are feeling the heat right now from their stockholders and vendors. But, we can't stop there. We have take it down to the personal level and stop spending money at liberal-supporting businesses. And, when they ask you why you don't shop there anymore, tell them why. And, don't just stop with money. Twice now, I've asked other people coming to me for a handout who they voted for. When they proudly told me they supported Biden, I proudly told them they need to handle their problem without my help because what they did made my life harder, and I wasn't about to help them out for that.

It's all about the dollar, and at the basic level, the R's spend way more than the D's.

I have been trying to do that for years. It doesn’t help when allies you supported turn on you (e.g. Chick-Fil-A). Go local when you can.

This makes great sense. Take away their microphone. Take away their profits and you stop their machine from moving forward. It takes money for them to carry out their evil.

This would be an amazing concept to develop further — which conglomerates are the worst offenders, and how can we wholly bankrupt them all.

I also believe this starts with cancelling cable services. This is their number one mouthpiece.

And please check the bottom or label of EVERYTHING you buy. For a couple of months, I have been doing that. You will be shocked at the number of things that are made in China. Nearly everything. Especially at Target.

100% correct!

I stopped tuning into FNC on Nov 4th.

I never did the twitter thing but I signed up with Parler.

I deleted my FB acct and signed up with MeWe.

I’ve always been conscious of the origin of my purchases. But these days, more than ever.

This is the "list" the conservatives need to create.

“When they proudly told me they supported Biden,”

I cut it off there and ignore them. You’re too nice wasting words and saliva to these leftard assholes.

I’ve said this before, that if there was an organized effort to defund the advertisers on Fox, FB, and Twatter, we could have a definite impact. We still have to overcome the $$$$ that Soros gives to these traitors.

Or we could just ignore them.

Twitter is nothing more than the crazy person on a soap box on the town common. No one paid attention to the 100 years ago. Why let them bother you now.

You and I are not “famous” enough to get cancelled. Just ignore them.

Did you watch TV before 1980? Then yeah, you can probably get local channels with a decent, inexpensive HD antenna.
