    Amazon boycott March 7th through forever. There’s no need to give them an end date. Our action is completely toothless when we literally spell out for them exactly when we’ll come crawling back start giving them money again.

      Boycott March 7th-14th. Amazon makes record sales on March 15th. Great job. High fives all around. That will show them. /s

    A whole 7 days??? Gosh gee willakers!!! You think people can uphold a boycott a whole 7 days???

    Look. Boycotts are effective, but you gotta be stubborn. It’s gotta be “boycott from now on” with no end date.

    Otherwise, it’ll just look like normal fluctuations in their business.

    “Oh, this week was slightly down…ah, but then it stopped. We’re good!”

    But if you boycott forever, then their numbers continuously go down. And if you get other people boycotting, those numbers go down faster.

    THAT’S how you make an impact.
