1. La Estrategia del Boicot como Defensa de la Democracia.
Los participantes en la conversación enfatizan que el poder del consumidor es la herramienta más efectiva para contrarrestar la influencia de las grandes empresas y los multimillonarios que, según afirman, financian la destrucción de la democracia. Se promueve una "huelga general financiera" o "apagón económico".
- We have power as consumers and can leverage that power to protect democracy.
- Stop spending your money to destroy democracy - boycott amazon, google, meta, apple microsoft.
- Boycotts of businesses supporting autocrats have been key parts of successful peaceful resistance movements around the world. Participate. Save our democracy!
- Money is the only thing they understand! i would rather have democracy than some good friday deal, any ole day. Blackout.
- We need to use our money supporting companies that arent destroying democracy and our country.
2. Objetivos Principales: Amazon, Target y Home Depot durante el Black Friday.
La campaña se concentra en un "apagón total" de compras durante el fin de semana de Acción de Gracias, incluyendo Black Friday y Cyber Monday. Amazon, Target y Home Depot son señaladas repetidamente como las principales corporaciones que deben ser boicoteadas por su presunta complicidad con el régimen autoritario.
- Dont buy anything from target, amazon, or home depot stores from nov. 27 to dec. 1.
- Boycott amazon, target, and home depot this holiday season to send a signal to those firms who help enable the authoritarian policies of the white house.
- Lets start with the black friday weekend shopping boycott. Take back your power buy nothing.
- Will you join the boycott on amazon, home depot, and target this thanksgiving/black friday week as they are enablers of the white house authoritarian and fascist agenda?
- Boycott amazon and facebook on black friday bc its not ok to desecrate democracy its not fucking ok i dont want to give them please pass it on if you agree.
3. Priorizando la Democracia sobre la Conveniencia y el Consumismo.
Los participantes reconocen que el boicot implica una inconveniencia significativa, especialmente al renunciar a la facilidad de Amazon Prime o a las ofertas de Black Friday. Se insta a los consumidores a redirigir su gasto hacia pequeñas empresas locales, negocios que apoyan la democracia o donaciones a organizaciones pro-democracia.
- I know amazon is convenient, and maybe someday they wont try to contol us, but in todays times, we need to save democracy! Its urgent to stop shopping for huge corporations and support you local mom pop businesses!
- Redirect spending skip the companies undermining democracy. Shop small, local, or with businesses affirming our humanity.
- If you are still pretending to care about democracy, it is past time to keep pretending that you cant live without amazon. You can. Itll be ok.
- Is fighting for democracy too inconvenient got you?
- I will continue to support local businesses, but only companies that support democracy. I am turning off any services from companies that support this traitor president.
