Boycott Trump 2025!

[Yuwipi Woman]

A lot of people I know are planning informal boycotts of any business who contributed to Trump's campaign or his inauguration fund. I'm especially interested in boycotting anyone who has run to Marilago to bend the knee. I'm not going to give Trump a good economy to brag about. Does anyone have a list of organizations and people who ran to bend the knee to Trump so I can make sure to minimize any purchases of their products?

That's literally impossible if you've got a pension

US Presidential Election 2024: Donald Trump’s donor list in 2020 vs. 2024; and who’s donated how much to Biden and Harris

Elon Musk shared insights into the top donors for the 2020 and 2024 US presidential elections. In 2020, Trump's funding came from government entities and corporations, while Biden benefited from Big Tech contributions. The 2024 race shows a similar pattern, with Harris receiving significant...

A total boycott is probably impossible given the extent of corporate support he gets. We still need to eat. However, if I'm buying bath tissue, I do have the power to pull one brand off the shelf over another. I can minimize my financial support for billionaires and businesses that work against my interests.

Musk chucked in $277,000,000
I'm not sure this list is entirely accurate

Bezos went and bent the knee at Mara Lago too. He gave Trump a million for his inauguration fund.

6 airlines! Who all realized that if Trump won the numbers of people taking flights to flee the country would boost their profits.

That's a possibility, it's not a source I'm familiar with, Tbh. Happy to be corrected.

i noticed, and i think they're hoping for less anti-trust under the fucking gibbon. line khan & co. have done alot of work over the last four years.

Sadly not really much of a point, it's a bit late now. Besides the problem isn't the people who sponsored him, it's those who voted for him.

Might be easier to boycott the sponsors rather than the voters. The latter have probably been shafted enough times.

I'm fairly sure my (small) pension fund invests in some potentially dodgy shit. I just can't bring myself to actually look at all the investments it's in.

It's a nice idea but the only way to stop the cunt is to shoot him dead. And even that seems quite tricky.

I put some of my retirement account into an index fund that avoids the worst offenders. It's probably the best I can do on that front, given the scope of the problem.

My plan is the just not buy anything but absolute necessities. Most of the people I know who voted for Trump claim they did so because the economy was better for them. If there's a massive crash because no one is spending money maybe they'll figure out they were wrong. It's a longshot, I admit.

I’m doing my bit by continuing to censor him from my media feed, so I only have to read about his words and deeds. Still stressed and vexed, mind.

There was a guy when Trump was elected the first time that entirely boycotted the news for four years. No one was even allowed to tell him the news. He bought a small, wooded acreage and moved there. He spent four years rehabbing the woods. He figured he wouldn't have much success doing something against Trump, so he tried to have an impact locally. I have to admit that's tempting.

It only works if you’re not in the habit of watching tv.

I manage to do that without video playing

I'll probably have to do something like that just for my own sanity. I spent so much time and energy pulling my hair out the last time.

Maybe if done with other like minded people?

Get away from the madness, the government. Build your own community.

Amazon a good place to start, as if there weren't already enough reasons

Absolutely! It's not that difficult to find alternatives if you look.

Being on-grid living in an area with highly variable weather is just a challenge sometimes.

There have been several attempts of cults to guy property and move people in and take over. One was a neo-Nazi group in North Dakota. The locals bought up all of the unoccupied ramshackle properties and burns them down. It seems to have stopped that plan in its tracks. On the other hand, they all voted from Trump. I guess they'd rather be part of the cult.
