The best tool we have to push CEOs to take on the president and prevent further erosion of the American brand is in our pockets — an economic strike that builds on calls for Apple boycotts that are already starting to emerge.

Love it Scott!! I’ve been waiting for some leader out there to propose something like this and finally it’s here. We need to do coordinated economic strikes (which in our day and age means stop spending) any time Trump does horrible things. This should be a regular thing. It’s our best leverage.

The best tool we have to take on Trump is the midterms, which are now less than 10 months away. The second best hope is that Congress members remember they took an oath to support the Constitution, not an oath to enable a tyrant.

The endless stream of traffic on these sites also drives profit. Just delete the apps and do not use these services. Crappy math (mine) shows that Facebook makes $40/yr from each user. If enough people reject their services outright, it would cost them an estimated elevendy-bajillion dollars.

Lead the charge of the digital boycott. If, as a targeted action of the mass demonstrations taking place all over the country, we commit to deleting X, Instagram, Facebook accounts, etc, it would hit them right in the pockets. Stop the build-out of the surveillance state and subscription economy.

Let’s remember that Trump has manipulated markets regularly, and insiders have made billions as a result. Yes, let’s manipulate the hell out of them IN THE PUBLIC INTEREST!!!

If you want hurt somebody these days hit them in the pocketbook. I'm on board. I can survive on used blue rays and cds. Or read one of those old things with paper pages.

Used it to unsubscribe. Great tool. I cancelled a Tesla years ago when I saw who musk was. Cancelled Amazon day of the election. Won’t buy a new iPhone. Don’t shop at Target or Home Depot. Shop local small businesses whenever possible and Costco, who maintained DEI and is suing for the tariffs.

Love this. A year ago I started #boycotting X, Meta, Amzn, Home Depot, & Disney/Hulu in the fall. Don't miss any of them. Found out I can live without them all and support smaller businesses.

Last night I cancelled Chat GPT premium, Apple Care on an older MacBook, Disney+, Amazon Prime, Amazon Video, LinkedIn Premium & Apple Music. Entered a comment where I could that I won’t have my $ going towards complicity or cowardice with Trump‘s authoritarian takeover & support of abuses by ICE.
