Please avoid our businesses and produces like the plague. Because you’re giving money to pure evil.
Edit: and for my fellow Americans… Stop buying shit you don’t need. Seriously, Christmas and birthdays need to be fucking canceled! Stop buying pumpkins spiced bullshit, TVs, and entertainment. Go cold turkey on all the shit they’ve tricked you into needing and wanting. Voting with our dollar might be our last chance at a peaceful change of values in our country. You don’t need fabric softener, but the oligarchy needs you to keep buying so they can take more wealth. The money you spend on shit you don’t need doesn’t help anyone but the wealthy. Very little of the money everyday America spends circulates in our communities in an additive way. Build community not corporations.
If a huge group of people had the discipline to consume less, they could do even more good by not voting for Capitalists every election. Then they could have their cake and eat it too.
Genuine question, how can you not vote for capitalists when they are the only ones running in 90% of elections? Not voting for capitalists just gets people jumping down your throat for not voting for the lesser of two evil capitalists.
I am assuming a theoretical world where we have millions of people dedicated to mass action. In that world if those people were committed to not voting for Dems or Republicans and instead voting for any of the various socialist candidates at every governmental level, we would have a fully socialist (albeit different flavors of socialism) society in 6 years.
Obviously this is fantasy as people are not a collective, and passive participation in society results in “lesser of two evils” voting behavior and neuters any potential boycott pressure. Thus the status quo is propagated.
I think there are already millions of people who would vote for socialist candidates, but they don’t really seem to exist. I know I would, but I’ve never seen one on any of my ballots.

God I wish Americans as a whole would get this message. It would make such a huge difference if we all just bought a little less
