If your moral compass tells you to stop buying Amazon or Apple, by all means, do so, but realize that you won't be hurting the oligarchs. I wasted hundreds of dollars supporting Blue candidates across the U.S., knowing the money would be wasted, but I did it for my conscience. And by the way, are you sure Samsung is worthy of your business? Or are they also members of the oligarchy?
