Comment on Amazon Boycot March 7-14th | No Purchases. Its time to disrupt the system.
villainy@lemmy.world 2 months agoThat boycott had a demand attached, to prevent the sinking of the Brent Spar buoy. Effectively “unlimited” boycott until Shell gave into the demand.
This and the last no shop Friday thing seem mostly pointless. I mean fuck Amazon for sure but shouldn’t there be some goal? “Boycott Amazon until X, Y, and Z” not “No buy from Amazon for a week but then we’ll be back so no worries!”

The implicit demand is to stop supporting fascists.

Implicit demands are for mob bosses and boat owners. If you’re threatening a corporation you need to be clear and direct.
Less
More
Or whatever. Clear, concrete, demands.

With the time skip, that’s going to be a long boycott.
