That’s so stupid. Boycott only works if it’s indefinite, because you want the company to try to win you back.
If you say that you are coming back, what exactly are you expecting to happen? They’ll change nothing because you already said that you are coming back
I’m under the impression that the idea of an unified EU army is that they would be able to act independently in case of an attack, no need for votes or bureaucracy.
If that’s not the case, then yeah that’s a problem
A situation where Russia invades EU and US immediately after invades greenland, no longer looks so impossible to me
Better to suck Putin’s cock than to have a female president
This sub is delusional
A one-week boycott is completely ineffective by design.
Amazon’s executives aren’t sweating over losing a week of your business. They’re a trillion-dollar company that thinks in quarters and years, not days. They’ll gladly wait out this symbolic week of inconvenience.
The moment you put an expiration date on your boycott, you’ve surrendered all leverage. They have zero incentive to change anything because they know you’ll be back ordering Prime deliveries next Monday.
Real - actual - boycotts work by creating genuine economic pressure that forces companies to reconsider their practices. They require commitment, not just temporarily pausing your shopping habits.
Emphasis on >habits<, because we’re not talking about political parties, it’s a shop. A humongous shop for sure, but still a shop, and you can buy what you want from other places.
If you want to actually impact Amazon, you need to be willing to walk away indefinitely until they address your concerns. Otherwise, it’s just performative.
