    Hey, the best way to defund the oligarchy is to live a frugally as possible, cancel all your subscriptions, buy the least branded, least advertised bulk products you can. Don’t buy from major chains when you can avoid it. Turn on an ad blocker, or even better adnauseam.

    If you can’t get some digital media direct from the artists, pirate it. Fuck the ethics discussion, any money you spend through an app store or through a major subscription service is quietly getting funneled to this shit.

    Deny them your dollars and put your money away till things improve. Be a consumer on strike if that’s the least you can do.

      ethics went out the window when corporations kept price fixing and bribing politicians for covering their crimes.

      if you’re in desperate need or something, find your local corporate entity and just take what you want. it’s better when there’s 1000s of you. they might close that store, but there’s more… they gloat about how many buildings and sites they have, make them shut them all down

      I don’t condone violence or theft from honest working individuals/Family run businesses working to feed their families.
