Oh no - what are quebequois (sp?) going to do without an Amazon warehouse in their region?!? How will they survive?!?

I am not saying Trump is a Russian asset, BUT if sometime in the future we FULLY confirm that the Kremlin profusely funded Trump ventures throughout his life and political ascension, it will be the most obvious intelligence operation in the history of mankind.
I wouldn’t have guessed it was a Democratic sponsor.
Why?? This was even before Obama’s 2nd term. Just because they thought they had the numbers?
Ah yes, let’s fight the cousins now 🤦♂️🤡
One of the core characteristics of fascism - the rejection of dissent, in favor of unanimity.
Edit- totally fascinating read about the predecessor, the “Fasci Italiana di Combattimento”
Mussolini used his newspaper in 1919 to espouse an eclectic mix of "dramatic and eye-catching" proposals inspired by views from across the political spectrum, as he was "far more concerned with tactics than with ideas" and discovered that inconsistency did not bother his readers.[32] Mussolini at this time "appeared successively as champion of the League and then nationalist, as socialist and then conservative, as a monarchist and then republican" and actively wished to keep all his political options open.
(…)
In general, its stances were radically different from those of later fascism, as the early Fasci proclaimed its opposition to censorship, militarism and dictatorship.[23]Mussolini wrote that "we are libertarians above all, loving liberty for everyone, even for our enemies".[24] On the same occasion, he also said that freedom of thought and speech were among the "highest expressions of human civilization".[24]
Oh boy, this sounds so current…
I’m just waiting for the Free Palestine folks to show us the way. I am ready to see some real radical action, amirite?
Why is it a different product then? Does it allow the same content? Same algorithm?
Or is it different, and not an actual carbo copy?
I am not saying we should, but if apparently it needs to be done, we should rethink categories and classes more broadly, not in “boys” or “girls” terms.
I imagine you find comfort in such a simple worldview
Idk - I kinda think that if any of this shit mattered, what WaPo or other legacy media say, Trump wouldn’t have won.
Amazon has been my last purchasing option for many years now - brick & mortar, CL/FB market used, eBay and then Amazon if all fails and I really need the thing.
Edit - the added benefit of this approach is that friction introduced in the process allows me a cool down period to evaluate whether something is truly needed. Reducing the friction is precisely part of Amazon’s business strategy, and why they had a patent on 1-click shopping until a few yrs ago.
