Don’t expect honesty from the bootlicking mainstream networks. Those concerned with appearing “impartial” when one side is an avowed dictator are not concerned with honesty- only profits.
AP and Propublica are far better options or if you want that left wing bias fox news says mainstream media has, go with Vox.
If we were to assume that everyone would just wait until the 15th to do all their amazon orders that they waited a week for then I would agree it’s symbolic.
For many, this will be what happens, but for some, they will find an alternative. Then maybe in the future they chose that alternative too. It’s about gradual progress towards better alternatives. For you, maybe finding ways to make your work less reliant on those things would help. Or if that’s not possible maybe working somewhere else that doesn’t make you sacrifice your values.
As an example, one person choosing to educate themselves on animal welfare might not have much effect today, or tomorrow, or even next week. But after years, even small changes can mean the elimination of suffering for dozens or hundreds of lives.
I don’t think advocating people do nothing while vaguely gesturing at doing more while offering no alternatives or next steps is meaningful action.
Sounds like an excuse to not get started.
Yeah but you’re massively increasing your imports of resentment and grudges so it’ll balance out.
See if you can find an advertiser to promote their content on your sub. As the mod you control if it stays or not.
Get paid for your power until everyone leaves or you get canned lol
