If you're unfamiliar with what that is, let me tell you right now, from today, November 25th through December 2nd, they are calling for you to stop to discontinue online shopping
Stop shopping from major retailers. [ __ ] Target
It's always been [ __ ] Target since they dropped the DEI
Anyway, [ __ ] Walmart. [ __ ] Amazon
Amazon sucks any [ __ ] way
And if you have to shop, they're asking you to shop small businesses only
This is a oneweek mass blackout
Tons of people are participating in it
Listen, the greatest power that we have is the power of our wallet
If they realize that they need us to keep funding their [ __ ] then they'll start listening then and only then
Even Congress doesn't listen to us, the people that elect them
They listen to the people with the money
But they need to remember the people with the most money are we the people
Because these corporations are getting rich off of us while they take advantage of us, while they support uh and pass legislation that harms us, while we can't get health care, while we can't get housing, while we can't get basic needs met, corporate welfare is at an all-time high
While individual welfare is being attacked by this regime, November 25th through December 2nd, mass blackout

About the mass blackout:
WHY NOW?
Because nothing will change while fascists remain in power.
• The Trump administration paused federal anti-corruption enforcement — giving corporations a free pass to bribe, cheat, and exploit.
• Big business is funding authoritarian candidates while walking back public commitments to civil rights, labor protections, diversity, and democracy.
• Billionaires profit while the rest of us are told to shop, work, and stay silent.
This isn't about left vs. right. This is about people vs. power.
If we do nothing, they win. If we move together, they feel it.
