If you can. Some people who live in the middle of nowhere without stores they need probably won't be able to. Some competition though would be nice. We have to start paying more attention to the monopolies that are ruining our lives and the economy.
I generally only use Amazon to research products that are available. When I find what I like, I go to the company's own page and order from there. That way, though I may pay for postage, I'm good with it. UPS or FedEx or USPS also deliver.
Way longer than that. You need to know the players in this game to realize, that it will affect all democracies around the world. We are just the biggest, according to population, with the most impact.
Read up on history!
Europe had exactly 80 years of democratic freedom while the US enjoyed their democratic republic since their beginning.
Ever since the end of the civil war, supremacists were active to dismantle the outcome, the civil rights movement threw another obstacle in their way. It made them more energetic to pursue their goals of absolute white power. Reagan helped a lot to accomplish their objective.
Meanwhile ,across the pond, Putin , the racist in persona , gained power in the early nineties and has been ruling with Punity.
Early on, East and West, decided to cooperate since they had the same aspirations.
And here we are! Fighting a big monster !
Putin and Musk as well as Trump (too old and dumb, though) are dreaming of world power.
We have to prevent that! We need to mobilize all our democratic partners and cooperate in sustaining our freedom!
I knew the election outcome days before, and it had nothing to do with technology. I listened to Trump's base, looked at the Harris campaign, realized that "it's the economy" + immigration this time around, and it seemed obvious to me that Trump was going to win. I still donated hundreds of dollars to Blues in and out of my state and voted straight Blue as my conscience demanded, but I also knew it was a futile effort and money largely wasted. Wish I had been wrong.
Lots of folks were told they weren't on voting lists when they were. One voter in NC had a Passport as ID and was told by voting judge they "had never seen one" and were turned away. Folks many times don't know their rights. Fraud by local officials in cahoots with MAGA. Stuff coming out about it.
I have said that from the beginning! That orange clown did not win fairly and it's like they think we are too dumb to catch on. I am also concerned about Biden because they have a plan for him trust me. He give hints nobody ever pay attention to the hint was" Why didn't Biden pardon himself"
He may have helped Trump win by flipping votes through Star link. https://youtu.be/6G8fu50VRXo?feature=shared
He quite obviously did.
How did Bezos and other publishers know the election outcome, days before , when he bowed to Trump? Anyone knows?
Trump admitted it was rigged by Elon and Putin.
Boycott Amazon!!!!!

Albirs Books.........deals with small bookstores.........
Ebay......sells mostly used and second hand items............
There are many small online buisnesses now........
What is more important? Spending an extra 5 minutes....or living a life under a totalitarion nazi based dictatorship!!!
Unfortunately, boycotting Amazon won't get you out of living a life under . . . But if you need to do that for your conscience, by all means, boycott!
Alibris.com
Try small businesses, sellers on eBay
It's because they were all in on it. They have been planning this since Trump was in the White House the first time.

Who’s taking the lead? I’m in!

Would have been easy to generate fake ballots using a version of the program written by one of the Muskrats (Ethan Shaotran) that can generate authentic looking ballots (BallotProof). https://web.archive.org/web/20250204131222/https://devpost.com/software/ballotproof-vision
I think something strange happened as well.
