I got a ban from a group because there was a lot of horse posting. I basically commented that “hey there’s a lot of evidence that horse riding causes permanent injuries”, and “who here can actually afford this posh hobby”. The admins were rich as fuck. Somehow rich people tend to have more time to do this shit. Anyhow, they said that I was being personally insulting because “posh hobby”.
I was also kicked from a sub for reporting obvious Islamophobia. Fuck that place.
I got a two week ban from Facebook for anti-white racism. And I’m officially the whitest person on Hexbear.
Maybe I’m a lib or too damn civil, but I haven’t yet been kicked from a site yet
Didn’t say it’s gonna create change, but bezos has plenty of money already from elsewhere he doesn’t need mine. Every dollar you spend at Amazon could be spent at a small business.
I suppose that’s something you could do but I don’t see why? Unless you shop exclusively at like, worker-owned businesses and communes, you’re still doing more or less the same. I’d argue that if you can save money by buying fewer things and buying only the things you really need via the cheapest channels, then use the rest of your money wisely (knowing how to strike a balance between saving/investing to prepare for the future and charity/bail funds/other mutual aid) is more significant than the usual liberal approach to ethical consumption of believing that your local small business tyrants are somehow less exploitative or less capitalistic than the tech giants.
The small business tyrants keep that $ circulating in the local economy, which is more valuable than me saving 10 cents.
lol. lmao
