Thursday

EVERY dollar you spend
EVERY day
EVERY week…
black friday…
your kids birthday…
your groceries…

is a vote on the world you want/the world you will accept…even grudgingly/the world you resist

if you are going to go to the same walmart or amazon or mcdonald’s to buy your xmas junk or happy meal the day or week after this boycott…THEY DONT CARE! They’ll still get your money!

Resist every day. With every dollar.
