    Double dippers can get fucked. Greedy swine. We already give you money, shut up and be happy with it. You already make tons of profit, can’t you just be satisfied with that instead of ruining everything further?? Maybe buy less avocado toast.

    (I don’t use prime or any other streaming service, so it doesn’t impact me, but it’s the principle of the thing, and the sentiment stands)

    Raise the black flag 🏴‍☠️ a moral imperative.

    Don’t let them take your hard earned money, giving the people nothing of real value, and giving artists and writers nothing of real value. Selling us cheap stuff, selling our data.

    Their profits don’t come back to society in meaningful ways - they fight tooth and nail, using every loophole, loopholes they lobbied for, to avoid paying taxes. To pay less tax than hard working individuals. They will hide behind “the government collects the taxes they want to collect, it’s perfectly legal”, but they made it legal. They are the ones who control the ringing of the Wall Street bell. You don’t get to be a billionaire unless you are state-sponsored.

    Amazon, of all, do not need ads. Just another cost they pass along to citizens.

    If you’re on the fence, then let this be the beginning of your piracy as advocacy. Piracy as resistance.

    Boo! Since I stopped ordering products from Amazon, I guess it’s time to not renew my Amazon Prime membership.
